Bullseye
















Yesterday we attended the 1st Annual Steele Sportsman Expo. It was to prepare the fellas for the upcoming hunting season. There were three rounds of events and they included Trap Shooting, Hatchet Throw and Archery. Scott came in second to last in the overall competition but did dominate the trap shoot event and won. I actually thought it would be fun to try the hatchet throw and on my first try threw a bulls eye. Might I brag and say I was the only one that day to throw a bulls eye. That is impressive I know. It was a great day all around. We hung out with friends and had a wonderful time eating and hanging by the bonfire that Matt created. We are already anticipating nexts year Challenge and Scotty is geared up for the hunting season. I have posted some pictures. Scott enjoyed seeing Luca and Colin is getting so big. He was dressed in camouflage the whole day to be totally committed to the hunting theme:) I also took a picture of my bulls eye. I am so proud.

Poor Dog!!






















I wanted to update everyone on the wonderful weekend we had. The Cyclones won. It was great tailgating with Friends and Family. Scott made it through the Husker lost. We saw Jeremy and Rachel for a few hours on Sunday. Although Jeremy was under the weather, Rachel was glowing at 5 1/2 months along. We stayed the night in Red Oak and celebrated Sally's birthday. We had cake and ice cream and even got to see Grandma Barr and Grandma Ratcliff. We also have Jeter back for good now. I picked him up a Halloween costume and had it already for Scotty when he came home from painting on Monday. Scott's exact words to me when he saw him were "that poor dog". Jeter is going to be a hot dog this year. As you can tell from the pictures he loves the two outfits I bought him. I had to stop by Bass Pro Shop and pick him up a cool duck toy to soften the blow a little. I hope you enjoy the pictures. Everyone be ready to see Jeter on your door step on Halloween night:)The sweater is my favorite.

Its been a while


Well I haven't blogged in awhile. Not alot has been going on.Scott has been working and so have I. School has become pretty challenging and I am already anticipating graduation. Our house has yet to sell we have had people interested but no offers. It does get frustrating at times but Scott and I are hanging in there. We have decided to pass on the lot in Crescent. We have come to the conclusion that we should wait to until our house has sold before we commit to anything. Once the house is sold we will decide. Last weekend Scott and I headed to Kansas City with my Dad to watch the New York Yankees play. They are fighting for the wild card and pulled out the sweep on the Royals. However Derek Jeter did not play. He was hurt and I was really disappointed. This weekend we head to Ames for our first ISU football gme. They play the Hawkeyes in the Cyhawk game. We are really excited. Although it is going to be a long season we still enjoy hanging out with friends. Scott is anticipating the Nebraska/USC game and we have promised him we will stop by a bar and watch it. After all he is a true Husker fan. Scott's brother Jeremy and his wife Rachel are in town as well this weekend. We are so excited to see them. We have not seen them since they announced the pregnancy. We will be staying in Red Oak on Sunday night to hang out with family and bring Jeter back home with us. We miss him so much! Here is a picture with my dad. We both love the Yankees and it was so nice to hangout together.
