CONFERENCE

Last weekend Russ and I were able to go to the Sunday afternoon session of conference! We had a wonderful time. I absolutely could not believe ALL THE PEOPLE! That was my first time going to a live session of conference and I was really not expecting all those people... people leaving the morning session, people going to the afternoon session, people wanting tickets, people protesting the church, just tons of people! It was quite hectic.... until we were inside the conference building. Then everything was all right and so worth it! We both loved it and I'm so glad we went!

I wanted to take a picture while we were there but as I took my camera out of my purse... yep you guessed it... the batteries were dead :( Oh well we made a memory!!!

Russ' Elk Hunt in The Book Cliffs

Russ and his bother Brynnen were lucky enough to draw out for the Book Cliffs Elk Hunt!! They were both so excited the hunt went from Sept. 12-20.  Brynnen shot his elk on the 18 and Russ shot his on the 19.  The said they had a great time and saw a lot of county.  Here are some pictures from their adventure...
