Holiday Parade.

     November 22, our friends asked Nate and I to run Thanksgiving turkey relay with them. It was 2 miles each and you had to guesstimate your total time when you signed up for the race. The winner was whichever team came closest to their estimated time and each member of the team won a frozen turkey! It was a super fun race but we ended up running too fast and beat our time by 2 minutes and 47 seconds which was enough to take us out of the running for 1st place.


     I also made us all embarrassing headbands of turkey legs to wear, and then promptly lost mine so we are one short in all the pics ;)

     The race happened to be the same morning as the Boise holiday parade so my dad was nice enough to take Spencer to the parade with his cousins!


Dream Catcher


     Nate and my dad decided they wanted to try their hands at tanning a hide starting with the hide from Nate's elk. They've put a lot of time and work into it, and I'm not sure what its supposed to look like but I don't think I'm going to want it hanging on my wall any time soon...

    One of the first things they had to do was stretch it (at least I think that was the purpose?). They took the trampoline apart and tied it to that. It looked like a giant spiderweb or a giant dream catcher. Thus, the perfect photo op was born!
(these are the deer antlers, Spencer's trying to look like a jackalope.)
