The Mighty Deer Hunt

Chris and I were able to get away for a couple days to go deer hunting with his family! I absolutely love being up in the mountains where it's so quiet and peaceful. This year was adventurous and I love the memories we'll always have together. We got in late the first night so I decided to sleep in and go with Chris the next time they went out, well that was a mistake! He ended up getting his deer that morning. Yeah! He said it's been almost 11 years since his last one. You could see the excitement in his face when he pulled back up to camp in our truck:) The deer was deep in the mountains though so we had to hike back in to get it. We had some minor bumps through out the trip including Chris with his gimp knee (he doesn't remember hurting it, his knee just started bothering him and it's only when he goes up and down stairs; or in this case a huge mountain), Casey needing stitches in his hand, and Taylor falling on a coal and getting a second degree burn! Yikes, first time Alan has had to use his first aid kit in over ten years! We had yummy food while there and appreciate all of Alan's hard work to make these trips so fun. Anyway, here are some fun pics:
