So I'm behind in my posts but I have been way busy with things! BUT our Memorial Day weekend was such a blast! Spencer, my younger brother came down for the weekend from BYU-I and stayed with us. It was so great to have him come! He gets to put his mission papers in for a LDS mission soon so I have to soak up as much time as I possibly can since he will be gone for two years!
Since Spencer came down from school we wanted to do something extra fun & something that he would enjoy doing so Justin thought squirrel hunting was the ticket. Spencer has never been squirrel hunting but he does like to shoot and hunt deer so why not try this. Not only was he hooked but as was I! I would have never thought that I would but it was a lot of fun! I originally just planned on going along and watching with the other gals and just catch up on some reading and soak up some much needed sun but I ended up shooting too. I shot my first squirrel 110 yards away. I didn't know who was more proud of me-- my husband or my brother.. haha what can I say... my Daddy taught me how to shoot well :D

my first squirrel :D
So we had riot! & Spencer can't wait until Fourth of July weekend to go again.
This might be the new "Hyer family tradition".
As much fun as we had that Saturday, I am mindful of the sacrifices made for freedom & those men and women who died in our nation's service. My heart goes out to all the countless families who gave a son or daughter to that cause. I think about all the countless people who are now free because of the many sacrifices that American soldiers have made throughout the years. I am grateful every day for the opportunities our great nation has to offer and appreciate all those who so bravely serve each and every day. THANK YOU for all your service :D
