House......Hunting

Finally we found a house to rent. We will be living in Eagle Mountain, which won't be so far for Mitch to travel to work. Plus we are living really close to my Grandparents and also Mitch's older brother Steven. We are partly moved in, but due to a spike elk hunt things are on hold.

Here is our cute little house...I love it!

Braxton and Riddick are just so cute together...they were both watching Mitch back up the truck and trailer. Braxton is such a Daddy's boy. He also has the top 4 teeth growing in. He is such a little stinker...he will be sitting on the ground with his back to the wall and just bang his head off the wall. I will tell him "Braxton no, don't do that, you are going to hurt yourself," well the crazy little man will look at me and laugh and keep doing it harder and harder.

I really can't believe in a couple weeks he will be a year old. He is really smart and isn't afraid of anything which scares me a bit. I have taken him to the park a few times and he will go down the "big" slides all by himself and just laugh.

Now to the part that has put our moving in the house on hold....The Spike Elk Hunt. It's usually a guy thing to go on this hunt, but after 3 years of being promised that I could go...I finally was allowed to. I had a lot of fun just being Mitch and I and hiking around and seeing the animals.

The second morning of the hunt it started to snow on us as we were hiking through the mountains. Mitch and I sat down to take a break and eat our cheese and crackers, we were just talking(kind of loud for being hunters) and saying how cool it would be if an elk was just right there in front of us....when we get us to get moving on. Mitch looked in the bushes and seriously less then 30 feet away was a spike elk. Turns out there were 8 females and a 4 point with the spike. It was really cool.
Well of course he shoots it, and the whole process after that which really grossed me out. We had to end up getting horses to get the meat off the mountain. We had a really fun time....soon back to the real life and unpacking.
