Lamb

Ok, I posted about the boys wanting a lamb. Well, my father in-law and Curtis found one to buy and slaughter. They were so excited and of course I had to take pictures but WARNING THIS CONTAIN GRAPHIC IMAGES FOR THOSE OF THE FAINT OF HEART!






Of course the other little brothers had to help too. It was all very interesting and now we proudly have lamb to eat. And no more chasing random ones.

Ok, I know I have not updated this in a long while. We moved and so I have not succeeded in finding my camera yet. It also does not help that I started school and have been really busy. So just to catch up. We are house and dog sitting for the time and I'm taking four classes right now. My favorite one so far is the Kayaking one. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to have some water fun. Other than that nothing too exciting has happened.

So we went on a drive up the canyon with our friends and it was still so pretty up there even with all the colors gone completely now. It's not exactly my favorite time of the year. I like it more when it's early fall or there is snow covering everything.


And the sky was clear and a beautiful blue!

Here's Kate and Sam. They are such an awesome couple!

So the real reason we went up the canyon was to bag us some sheep. Mutton is one of my favorite meats! A good leg of lamb slow cooked in the dutch oven is a slice of heaven. They were going to die during the winter anyway so we grabbed the guns and went hunting! The big one is the mom and she was too smart. The moment they saw us they ran and never stopped. Its OK because we found out its illegal to shoot them and so they live another day to be killed by trucks or the cold or even a lucky mountain lion.

So I went to Twilight with all my sisters, mom, and other friends. Twilight actually turned out to be a good movie! And I got to have fun catching up with everyone!

Here's Natalie, her and I have known each other since we were babies because our moms are old highschool friends. I was so excited to catch up with her because I had not seen her for years.

And here is my mom with her friends Ruth, Gaylynn, Ruth and Wendy the bear (she represented the missing friend). Ruth is Natalie's mom.

And of course here is my little sister Sasha or Lu as I call her. She did not want her picture taken. We were also able to visit with my grandparents that night before the movie. I also had not seen them for a long time.

Here is my grandma and grandpa Harmon.

All us girls with grandpa.

So went on a drive on Sunday and look what we found. SNOW!!! It's that time already. Can't say I'm excited for the cold but I am excited for snow activities.

A lot of plants are dead and the leaves are gone but it still looks beautiful.

Colors

I have to say, we love this season with all the changing leaves. We took a drive up in the mountains and got to see the beautiful colors.



The road we drove on.

Look at the clouds.

So many colors, so much fun!

So here is our goat Meggie, who surprised us by having babies. We have no idea how or when she got pregnant, in fact we had no idea she was pregnant until we got a call saying that she had babies. It was the weirdest day. Unfortunately they died or we would have adorable little kids (baby goats) to show off.

Meggie is in the front and Nibbles/the baby as we call her is in the back. She is almost as big as Meggie now, just not as fat.


And for fun, we made a sauna in the back yard. It was a lot of fun, but next time we are going to make it out of canvas and use lava rocks. In the fire, if you look close enough you can see the rocks that we cooked.
