Hells Canyon Bear Hunting

Will and Russ E. plus 3 mules went over to Hells Canyon to bear hunt the end of April! Russ had the tag, and Will joined him for the fun of the hunt!  While they didn't end up getting a bear, they found tons of elk and deer sheds! The boys were so excited about the sheds when Will came home! They each slept with their elk shed alongside their bed, falling asleep with their hand rested on it!  When Zane woke up in the morning, he grabbed his shed, and ran over to one of the chairs in the living room and wrapped his arms around it, snuggling with it! It was so funny! Needless to say, they are IN LOVE!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We love Reid!!

Papa and Reid are really good buddies!

Reid's passion in life thus far is big equipment! Vroom, vroom! I saw this genius idea on Pinterest, just a bag of beans, a bin, and hours of scooping fun!

Happy, happy birthday to Lily!!

We had so much fun celebrating Lily's birthday two times! The first birthday party was at Papa and Nana's and then the second at our house!

Lily had so much fun with the noise makers!

Pretty cousins!

 

All the kiddos!

Lily wasn't sure what to do with her cupcake!
She thoroughly enjoyed smishing the icing between her fingers, and then once she decided to eat it, discovered it was delicious!!

Yumm!

 

 

Lily is such a happy, smiley, baby!  We love her sooo, sooo much!! Lily has a pile of energy, loves to climb up and onto everything, loves animals (especially chickens), and has such a sweet demeanor! What a cute little package all wrapped up in a sweet little girl!

Double the fun!

We had fun celebrating Lily's birthday at home with rainbow cake in a jar! It looked so pretty and was super yummy!

What a big girl!

Lily discovered that she loooves frosting!! She was hesitant putting the first bite in her mouth, but after she tasted it she reached lightening quick into the jar for more; it was so funny!!

The best birthday present ever was a box of kleenex!! Lily had so much fun pulling out the kleenexes and it went on forever! She was laughing and giggling and smiling so much!

 

Happy, happy birthday! :D
