Turkey Shoot 2010

One of the things that I love about being married is the fact that I get another family! Two great families... how lucky? And that with the new family comes new traditions. The Waters family has the Turkey Shoot, every year the Saturday before Thanksgiving. Cory says that its his favorite day of the whole entire year. He really couldn't sleep that well the entire week before. We started out on Friday with Cory and Stockton picking me up from work. Cory decided to tie Stockton in the back of his truck to see how he'd like riding in the back. He said that he had a lady and a cop pull up along side of him laughing and waving... you just cant help it with our "build a pup". I LOVE this picture. Cory said that Stockton just kept running from side to side propping himself up on the side, like a bigger dog does. Look at his little head barely peeking up over the side!

Well, it started out waking up at the crack of dawn. We had to be up by 6 because Cory wanted to get a good start to get back down to Ogden Saturday morning. Then we found out it didn't even start til 10! Cory didn't care...

This is Jared's last year before the mission!

And my first year. And dont you even worry, I was signed up in the shoot with the best of em.

Brad had a convention in Salt Lake and wasn't able to make it. But he couldn't resist and made a quick trip to at least watch everyones first shot! Can you tell how much this day means???

This year was a bust because none of us got a turkey! Cory said this is the first year he can ever remember not getting one! I must be bad luck! But dont worry... next year we'll represent!

We got home right as the storm was coming in. But not before getting some good shopping in.

Playing Scrabble in the warm house!


Stockton got to enjoy his very first snow storm. He loved it! He was marching around the backyard and eating snow. It was so funny because snow balls would get stuck in his fur!

Its always hard to leave Preston! Its one of our many homes away from home! Cory's parents are so great and amazing to let us come and stay and play whenever we want.

P.S. I STACKED UP ON NEW PROJECTS THIS WEEKEND! CANT WAIT TO SHARE!
