Blue Moon

On the weekend of the 24th of July Scott and I went to Delta to visit my parents. My father had been ill and I was anxious to visit him. My brother Daniel, his wife Hilaree and sons Kevin and baby Jaxon came up from Cedar City. 
One night we took advantage of my brother in law John connections at the Delta Golf Course (he works there--he is the family horticulturist). John got out the work gator type work vehicles and we went searching for Delta Rabbits!

Jo Ann and John with Jack-When this picture was taken he had one bunny kill under his belt. 

Mair, Suzie and Scott--Suzie has ZERO bunny kills-not for lack of chasing. 

Can you see the bunnies? We are kind of far away but in real life they were a lot closer. 

Run bunny run!
We had so much fun riding around in the evening and letting the puppies chase the bunnies. Jack was able to get 2 kills in one night. One was small and obviously too young to know any better and then the next one was a large old jack rabbit. John went with shovel in hand to scoop the carcass off the greens when the rabbit jumped up off the shovel and tried to run away. He was killed by shovel so I guess Jack had 1.5 kills that night. It was too funny. 
I had a good time in Delta. Kevin sure has a lot of energy and is a pretty tough kid. I have realized I am an old woman. I just do not have the energy to keep up with a toddler. I guess there is a reason I do not have my own children. 


Scott and I went camping July 29-31. There was a blue moon. It was beautiful and shined so bright. It was in my eyes all night long. We had the cover off out tent and so the mesh ceiling did not block out the bright night light. It was wonderful!

We woke up the first morning. I sat up and saw this picture. I had to grab my camera and show how close and nosey the cows were. It was kind of funny and spooky at the same time. 
We had such a good time camping this weekend. It was our ward camp out as well so we had free food prepared by someone else ha ha ha. It was great fun. I am really glad we were able to go. 
Scott still does not have a job. He has been doing great with dishes, toilet bowls, and cooking dinner.
