Hunting Season 2010

This year I drew out for a cow elk and a deer in Nevada. My dad, sister (who is pregnant with twins!), brother, and I hunted through the weekend and weren't seeing very much. The weather was warmer than usual and a lot of the deer were holding tight and not moving around too much. On Monday, my brother shot a forked horn and then headed to my grandma's. On Monday night, my dad and I were able to hunt for cow elk, and I shot a 550 lb. cow elk from 254 yards! On Tuesday I was able to get a shot at a forked horn. It was a fun hunt this year! Thanks Dad for being the best hunting guide in Nevada once again!

Happy Anniversary!

As of today, Kyle and I have been married for two years!! Who would have thought that a near death experience at Outback would have led to this! We have had some really good times, and I am so lucky to have Kyle. Love you KTB. HAPPY ANNIVERSARY to us!

Rain rain...Where are you??

 
Right now Arizona is in the midst of what they call their "Monsoon Season." Sadly enough, I am getting more and more disappointed as the days go by. It was supposed to rain yesterday and the day before and the day before... well you get the point! I haven't felt a drop where I live, and I am sick of waiting! Weather.com says that Phoenix receives an average of .99 inches of rain in July; so far we have gotten a grand total of 0.04 inches. Can't there be more than a "slight chance of rain" in the forecast tomorrow? Rain rain...where are you?!

My Deal of the Day...AKA "DOD"

Well today I hit up the grocery store and took advantage of all the great deals that were at Fry's. Also, I got an even greater deal when I matched up the sale items with manufacturer coupons. Check out all the stuff I got for such a steal!

After all my hard work, I ended up getting these 50 items:

-3 Tombstone pizzas
