Happy Birthday Nate!

This week Nate turned the big 25! Every year we have been married I have always had great ideas for gifts for his birthday and do a cake and all sorts of fun stuff, but this year it was not happening. The day before I had a pharm test, apt, then work a few hours and then tons of homework, but I had to find something! He kept telling me he didn't want anything, then he would say he wanted hiking boots or cowboy boots but both of those I would need his help. I called my dad and had him meet me at Jorgensen's. ( you can't ever go wrong there). I had no idea what the heck to buy, but if course I walk out with a new gun. Nate has been wanting a 9mm pistol and they had one, but it was so small and it just scared me. It was little, and I just hate pistols and I just didn't feel good about it. My dad then suggested a 17. All of my brothers have 17's and love them. Nate has been wanting one for coyotes and rabbits so that's what I finally decided on. I ended up getting a little nicer one, but it was so worth it. My dad was so much help and all the guys at Jorgensen's helped with Trigg. Great team effort!! They wrapped it and I ended getting home 10 minutes before Nate do I left a little note and some targets out in the car with a hint where to find the gun. I made up some excuse to have him get in the car, and he walked in with a huge smile! He ended up finding it ( I didn't have much time to be too creative) it worked out great! Then that night he went and shot it and had it for the hunt. 
   I am so lucky to have such an amazing husband and dad for Trigg. He helps so much with Trigg! He works so hard so I can finish school and to support Trigg and I. We love you Nate! Hope you had a great 25th Birthday! Sorry about no cake this year!! :)

The crib was pretty much the only place to hide it! Like I said I only had 10 minutes! :)

Can Life get any better?? Nope!


The older Trigg get's the more I just fall in love. I also love that getting out if the house and doing things are finally getting easier. Trigg is such a good baby! He sleeps 9-10 hours a night, then takes a good nap in the morning. He is starting to be so much fun!! He is all smiles, he loves his bath now, doesn't mind his diaper being changed, and loves his swing and any attention.
We have gone up on the mountain a few times this fall, Trigg went on his first camping trip. Some of Nates family came up to my family's property on Monroe Mt and we had a great time. They went and listened to elk, the weather was good, and the tree's were changing. It was a great weekend! Trigg loves riding in the stroller so we have gone on some walks and went and watched some softball games. Any ways I love how much fun he is getting, and how content he is with just hanging out! I can't get enough of him. I sit at school and clinicals and that's all I think about! He is by far the best thing that has happened to Nate and I. 
 Here are some pictures of a few adventures!
