Future Husbands in Training

Tonight we had a guest for dinner, Mr. Corben Watkins. After dinner, Weston gave him a quick lesson in Husband Etiquette. Corben likes to visit and we love it when he does. He has truly grown up in the last couple of months and he is very excited for the arrival of his new little sister, Jaycee Elizabeth. Corben loves to hunt with his dad, Blake and to hang out with his friend, Weston.

O' Christmas Tree, O' Christmas Tree How Lovely are Your Branches

Today, November 30th the boys worked together to put up our tree. I was amazed at how quickly they worked and the tree was up in about 45 minutes. It looks great. Notice the great choice of stool the boys are using ~ hint, hint it is my furniture. And I wonder why nothing lasts around here!
No, I truly love this time of year; it really brings out the best in people. I love the spirit of giving that fills the air and the many family gatherings to attend to. Please take time to remember the Reason for Season~

From our Family to Yours ~ Happy Thanksgiving

This year we gathered at the Leatherow residence in Farr West. We tried our hand at deep frying a turkey as well as Weston's swan. The dinner was fabulous! Everyone did their share to make the meal a feast. At this time of year it is ALWAYS great to be with family and friends and to give thanks for the truly important things that make life great. So to all of you THANK YOU for making my life a better one and for making our family complete. This was also Liam's first Thanksgiving ~ don't you just love the hat? Remember to give thanks to our Father in Heaven for it is thru him that all things are possible.

Colton has a good day at the marsh

Colton has really taken to the hunting just like his pa and older brother. These are not all of his ducks but look how happy he is.

Weston fills his Swan tag again this year!

Weston went out hunting with Blake and his cousin, Brandon. Weston was lucky enough to shoot his swan that morning (11/22). They were at Bear River. Weston was very excited to say the least.
