Excited news!!

Brandon drew out on an early elk black powder hunt and we were way excited cause they are supposedly the elk from Yellowstone Park. Well due to Wolves and Bears there was no sign of elk. But after hiking 40 + miles Brandon is the only one to show for anything!! HIS FIRST BEAR!! He shot it up a tree about 25 yards in front of him. They had a great time, and the girls and I were so excited that he shot a BEAR! GRRRRR......... We are having the fur made into a rug so stay tuned for more pictures!!

Brandon and his bear (the tummy was full of berries)

Dad and Brandon posing
( Dad was an awesome spotter and driver, making it possible for Brandon to shoot it
And thanks to Kevin he was barking like a dog which treed the bear and kept it up there
A big group effort, Thanks to the guys!!!!)
Nice Shot !! the first animal shot with Brandon's own gun!!!! Whooohoooo


OUR NEW CAR
"BC's Beamer" We are really excited it is everybody's dream to buy a Grandma's car with low miles, that looks nice. We ran down to Utah to look at some cars and we came home with a steal. A 1995 Toyota Tercel with 35 K miles with the original engine and all. Decked out with some rims , a stereo and tinted windows we are stoked!! We needed a car cause Brandon is quitting his job and going back to school!! This car will be in our family for years and years and years!!!!

Nice looking car, I hope it does last for years and years cause you will be needing a car that gets good gas mileage in about 11 more years. :)

Oh yeh, the bear is really cool too. It will make a nice rug and good for lots of great hunting stories. And it's quite big enough, you really don't want to be looking for anything bigger, unless it's in the store. :)
