Xander turns 4

 The Clarks gave him a hat that when you squeeze the end...the hands fly up.  He thought that was pretty cool.

 I made him a blanket. He said he like tractors so there ya go.

Clayton wanted to come with us. Xander really clung to him wherever we went It was cute.  We had a good time.

 Dad, grandpa and Hadley.

 The two mighty hunters

HUNTING IS HARD WORK

Heather

Heather came home for her dads birthday at the end of July.  She asked Crystal about the Hebal shakes we were doing.  Well in 2 months she has lost 20 pounds. That is just awesome.  I am so jealous and also mad at myself for not being as dedicated as she is.  Good job Heather. You are very beautiful. Always have been though. Love you

Martha Masters!!!!!

Hadley has been taking classical guitar lessons.  She has been listening to a CD by Martha Masters. Hadley mentioned to her guitar teacher that she liked her and really looked up to her. So guess who was flown in from California????   Martha Masters.  Hadley got to meet her and go out to eat with her and play for her and get hints on how to do things. What an experience.

Chads handy work

 Chad has many talents. He had to build a kitchen for a family in Canada.  He built everything here.

 He made this beautiful kitchen table.

 Beautiful work.

He made all these things at home in Laramie and then him and Hadley set out on the road for Pennsylvania and then he dropped her off and picked up his dad and they drove to Canada and delivered the kitchen items and installed them all. So proud of the work he does.
