Congratulations Dan!!!!

Dan had his graduation on Friday May 18, 2012 in Rock Springs WY. He received his AS in Environmental Science and AA in Anthropology from Western Wyoming Community College. He is now working on his BS in Range Management (Science) and we will be looking at school options over the next several months. He stats at the BLM Monday (5/21/2012). He will be a SCEP witch in short means he will have a job with the BLM when he graduates with his BS. I am very proud of him!

He actually got both degrees in December so he was a 2011 Graduate, but WWCC only has one Spring Ceremony.

I have other pictures, but they are on my phone, I will try to post them soon too.

Happ Mothers Day!!!!

Dan got me a new purse to carry my .38. I don't really like purses, and tend to carry back packs, and messenger bags more. We saw these at the Gun Show yesterday, and he picked out the perfect one!  The gal who makes them is the wife of our local Game Warden, she desgined them for herself as she hated the bulky and in her words un-stylish plain bags that were available. She sells on the web, and I love mine!!

Plumb my favorite color and its more of a field bag look too.

There are two drop pockets for my keys and phone...they are deeper than they look in this shot.
There is another pocket above these pockets too...lots of storage :)

This front pocket holds my wallet and has little pockets for pens and  some zipper pockets that are mesh so I don't really need my wallet, but because I have to switch to my messenger bag Karen made me for my Birthday for work I need my wallet. :)

This is the best part of the bag and the reason Dan bought it. The back is all Velcro and the holster sticks in so I can adjust the gun to where I could draw easily if needed, and a strap with a snap holds it in place. There are zippers on each end so rightys or leftys can use it. Its comfortable over my shoulder, or across my body.
Thanks Sweetie!

I hope you all had a fantastic Moms Day!!
I will post pics from Dans Graduation next week!
See ya soon! D & D Brown

Carson is going to the State Track Meet!

Carson spent two days running at the Regional Track meet. His High School Varsity team boys and Girls won regions and this was only the second year they have been a school (in Carson's words).
He ran a great 400 meter and came 10th out of he said 31 today. and His 4 X 400 meter Relay team and Sprint Medley Relay team are going to the Utah State Track Meet. Here is a pic of his Medley Relay Medal.....the 4X400 Relay metals were miss printed so he will get it later. YEAH CARSON!

On a side note he and the next runner had a baton dance of sorts at the hand off and Carson has sprained his LCL....The coaches have him working with the Trainer and hope he will be able to run next week at State...I'll keep you posted.

Hope all is well with you all!

Carson the Track Star

Carson has been burning up the High School tracks around Utah this past few months. He was also one of 150 out of 350 kids selected to attend the Simplot Track Camp in July in Pocatello ID. Hes only a sophomore, so will be doing very well come his senior year. He met one of my old track friends from Kearns High, She said he runs like his mom.He liked that....Here are a few pics of him in Logan running in the 4 X 400 meter relay...Yeah CARSON!!!! Enjoy :-}

Great drive out of the blocks!
His last 200 meter race he took 18th out of 48 boys...

I must share....This brought tears to my eyes....God Bless America!

Carson and Dan give the Ranger a "grill lift" !

Well the poor little Ranger has spent the last week with one headlight and no grill.

Both headlights finally cam as did the new grill...so the boys went to work fixing her up.

The new lights look sooooo nice!

Both lights after a week...looking good guys!!

Even Gunny helped....he guarded the tools for them :)

Now for the new grill.

Carson wen to work to get the grill locked into place.....

They both got it set in place,

Now for the screws to keep it in place almost done!

Gunny is still helping.

One more little adjustment!

And.... WOW! Almost like a new truck!

Moral to this is, Expect anything when you finally pay off a vehicle, we made it almost 7 years and no deer impacts, then pay off the truck and well you can see for your self....
Have a great day!! :-}

Welcome Spring .....I think..Well its a flower anyway :-)

Watch my Christmas Cactus bloom. It started two weeks ago, and is in full bloom today......

Hope you enjoyed this and have a grand day!
