A break from the heat!

The other weekend Ben & I headed up to the white mountains with Josh & Meagan to go camping for the weekend. We stayed on Josh's cousin's (Ronnie) land and it was beautiful! Meagan's mom was nice enough to drive up Eli and a couple of Meagan's siblings to join us. It was so nice to have them with us. The boys stayed busy the entire time...playing with the elk morning and night, coyote calling, shooting, fishing, and whatever else you can think of! My favorite part (of course) was the YUMMY food! I didn't take too many pics but here are a few!

My sisters...

I thought I would brag on my sisters a little bit. They recently had a cow elk hunt in Unit Two and both killed at the same time! Way to go girls!

2008 Apache Country Fair

I always love going home for the fair; cant tell ya why, I just do! My siblings did very well this year! Alissa got Grand Champion for market AND showmanship in swine and Eli got Reserve Champion for market in swine. They also got blue ribbons for their steers as well. On Friday night we were able to make it up there in time to go to the SJ vs. Show Low football game...they smoked 'em! Really early Saturday morning Alissa, Dad, and Ben went hunting (Alissa and Ashley both have cow tags in Unit Two). Then we went to the auction during the day and to the girls' soccer game in Snowflake that night. Once again, SJ smoked 'em! It was a short weekend, but a nice little getaway! Here are a few pics...

Labor Day Weekend

We spent Labor Day weekend with my fam up in the mountains. It is SO gorgeous up there right now!! SO green. It rained almost the whole time we were there, but I loved it. It is one of my most favorite things to fall asleep to the sound of rain! The only bad part was that EVERYONE and their dog goes camping on labor day, and it we got stopped about 20 miles outside of Payson and went about 5mph the rest of the way into town! Shoot me now! Note to self: next time go through Globe! But overall it was a great weekend! Here are some pics...

Dad and Eli splittin' the wood

There was this AWESOME sunflower patch on the way up there...Ben and Eli "frolicking" LOL
My husband will never take a serious pic!
We took Ashley's senior pics up there...she is so gorgeous! Here are a few...
Alissa wanted to pose too haha
Once again, my husband is a nerd! But I love him for it!
Eli...starting to act a little too much like Ben! haha
The dogs were so funny over the weekend...even though there are a million sticks up there, they always fought over one stick! Hunter was definitely in heaven! He loves Rascal, but I dont think Rascal is too fond of him! LOL
