Conference Weekend...

So here are the pictures from the first weekend of October, General Conference Weekend! Traditionally the Hirschi Family goes to their cabin in St. Charles, which is at Bear Lake. So this year we were able to go and had a good time! Spencer loves playing w/his cousin Gavin and had a great time helping grandpa harvest the potatoes! We took a little 4-wheeler ride up to some really pretty leaves that had changed, so gorgeous! Then up a hill and had a fabulous view, but had to head home b/c it started sprinkling on us but made it home in time w/out getting too wet! I had to add a picture of our ride home to Logan that weekend on Sunday. Obviously no one planned on a winter snow storm in the canyon the first weekend of October...poor motorcycle dude - he went down just shortly after we passed him and I hope he didn't get hurt. We almost got in a wreck too b/c there was a crash in the middle of the road around a corner but luckily we were in the truck that day and had good four wheel drive!

Also this month brings on hunting season of course! So earlier this month Brian was invited to a private hunting club to go pheasant hunting and he loved it. He got to go w/his brother Brent and his friend Matt who invited them both, so good boys trip! Then this week is the deer hunt, Brian hasn't done too much hunting this week b/c of the amount of work he has right now but went w/his dad to Bear Lake yesterday and got a buck this morning and of course he's very happy about that! He's not back yet, I'm sure they are out right now so his dad can get one!

Brian got a dog a few weeks ago, her name is Abby and keeps the cat company. They actually play really well together, most of the time anyway. Brooklynn and Spencer adore them and love having them to play with. Of course Abby is an outside dog since I'm allergic to them so it's good we have a big garage for the animals so it works out okay. I'm still trying to adjust to the situation, being pregnant and having a puppy is not ideal as most would agree but some things in life hit us head on and we just have to figure them out somehow. Brian and Brooklynn take care of the animals so that's also helping me get through it, plus she is very cute. She is a pure bred yellow lab so great w/kids and a smart dog too. She's already learned to sit but the potty training thing is still not done, getting better but not done.
