On Wednesday, we had a family birthday party for Logen. He had all of his cousins, aunts, uncles, and grandparents over. He got lots of great gifts. Our little guy doesn't love cake but loves ice cream so I made him an ice cream cake instead. He was so funny he didn't want the cake that was given to him on his plate he wanted it straight out of the pan. He was even feeding Grandma Deb out of the pan also. He is such a crazy kid. But he brings so much laughter in our family. Thank you everyone that came to celebrate his special day with us.
Friday came and it was time to go to the cabin for the annual deer hunt! I stayed Saturday morning with the kids while Chad, Matt and Jen all went out looking for the monster buck. But didn't find one. So that evening we took the kids out on the boat to the island in Strawberry and looked for the monster there. We found some good bucks but it was getting too late to go after them, we will get them in the morning. As we were looking around the island Saturday we watched a deer swim across the lake. It was pretty amazing, the kids loved watching all the deer. Sunday morning came and we went out to stalk the bucks. We got to the island, parked the boat and started hiking (very big island). We were going after some bucks, so we went up the ridge next to them and got up there and just when we finally got to a point to see them, they went over the top of the hill. So we hiked clear throughout the entire island, but never found another buck. Pretty depressing. So our hunt ended for the weekend and we will have to start all over again next weekend.

It is kind of hard to see, but this is the picture of the deer swimming across the lake. We didn't want to get too close, we were afraid that it would panic and drown.

Jen is going to kill me for posting this pic, but don't you just love her outfit! This is after the hike on Sunday also.
Graden liked playing in Woody's(Larry and Glenda's puppy) dog kennel.
Logen's 3rd birthday was Sunday. So after our hunt we made him the usual pancake with a candle and sang to him. We stopped at Grandpa Clive's and Kris' on our way home. They gave him a really fun train set. They made cupcakes and sang to him. We stopped at Morgan's house (Chad's niece) for her birthday party also. Logen, Morgan, and Grandma Shirley (Chad's G-ma) all share the same birthday! We finally made it home from the cabin and threw together some dinner and let Logen open his birthday gifts from us. He got a Leapster (he always takes Dagen's), transformer, movies, and clothes! I think he had a pretty fun day! Happy Birthday Little Man, We Love You!!

I have never been up to the Witch Festival. It sounds like a lot of fun! Happy Birthday to your little guy. They are all so cute!

Your luck was about like Jake and mine on opening morning of deer hunt! We rode our horses for 10 hours and saw a dough and a fawn. Are you kidding me?! Chat with ya later!
