Bud's Turkeys

Well Rob and Blake have both been turkey hunting and Bud was feeling pretty sad so I decided that I should do a post on Bud's Turkey Hunting. Now the second hunt is going on now in Iowa and I have told Bud that if he wanted to go hunting all he needed to do was go and purchase a tag and get it done, he has been working on the pastures and he wants to get them replanted before we get lots of rain so he is blaming in on that that he doesn't go hunting. Maybe he is loosing the feaver ???? (Not really) Bud has hunted Turkeys three times here but has never been successful. Bud you need to get busy and keep up with your Son-In-Laws
This in some pictures of turkeys that are here in Iowa 2-04, We see them all the time, so not a real big deal to me. When we took these pictures they were fanning but we just couldn't seem to get them to do it when they were in the open. There was also a white turkey with these but we were never able to get a picture of it. As you can see we were quite a way away. Oh well thats how it is sometimes

This picture 9-90 is of some turkey at Kolob, this is where Bud has done most of his turkey hunting.

Why did the Turkeys cross the Street? To get to the other side.

This is a very intresting picture 5-90 Tina and Jessie do you remember the turkey we caught in the fence out in the trukey pens we had it for a while and then Kurt Chadburn brought his Tom so then we had two turkeys. Maybe the real turkeys are the people that locked them up.

Now this is the real Turkey Hunter 5-89 This is the turkey that is stuffed at the house. Bud shot it on Kolob Mountain durring the Spring hunt.
So there you have it.

Happy Aniversary Jessie & Rob #3

April 15, 2009
JESSIE AND ROB PRICE
3 Years WOW

As we reflect on the past year of your marriage we are so excited on your wonderful life together. You have such a great family, beautiful children. Remember life has its ups and downs but as President Gordon B. Hinkley said, "Life is like an old time rail journey..delays, sidetracks, smoke, dust, cinders, and jolts, interspersed only occasionally by beautiful vistas, and thrilling bursts of speed. The trick is to thank the Lord for letting you have the ride." Thanks Jessie and Rob for letting us enjoy that ride with you. Love MOM & DAD



Jessie and Rob,

FARWELL TO A GREAT FRIEND


Well its time for me to update my post. I have been putting it off because I knew that this needed to be the next post that I did. This is a little e-mail that Bud wrote that I decided to use it because it sums it all up. I use the first picture of Clipper that I could find. Why we don't have pictures of him when he was born I don't know but this was his first ride. "Boy does Bud look young" The last picture is a couple of days before the old man died. He had fallen on the ice out side and we were helping him back to the barn. So many pictures in between that when I tried to decide which one to use there was not enough room to put them all. So I decided on the first and the last and to all that knew him will have to remember their favorite picture of him.


January 6th 2009 The old man of the barn (Clipper) passed away, 32 years of a great opportunity to have a great horse - as they say (something about the outside of a horse that is good for the inside of a man or woman) he fit the bill and you could not ask for a better partner to build memories with - oh the game we have hunted - the horses and cattle we have roped - the states we have traveled in and the mountains we have seen the other side of - the games that we played - the barrels he turned and most important the family he raised (even some of the grand kids got the opportunity to ride him) - Definitely a living legend came to an end and a legend was born to the memory books of life.

Frozen But Still Kicking

This was taken at 10:13 PM on Wednesday January 14th, 2009. I usually keep my thermostat on 69 degrees in the evening and down to 59 degrees during the night. The gas stove had been on down stairs and then it doesn't heat the upstairs as much. On the news most of the schools were telling that they would have a 2 hour delay in the morning for school because of the cold temps.

This was taken at 6:55 AM Thursday January 15th 2009. My furnace kicks on at 5:00AM and it was having a hard time trying to warm my house up. As you can see it is very cold. By this time the schools in the area had all canceled school for the day. They were saying that the wind chill was -54 degrees. Of course Bud and I both went to work. When you are inside you just look outside and don't know how cold it really is. You just make sure you have your coat, gloves, scarf, and of course I wear my thermos.
As of Friday morning it didn't get quite as cold, it was only -18 degrees so I didn't take any pictures, the area schools had all cancelled school on Thursday evening for school on Friday.
Now Kristi's school never canceled on either day, Thurdsay or Friday. "They did have a late start on Wednesday because of the 8 inches of snow that we received Tuesday night." "They think that because you are in college you will be able to remember you hat, gloves, and scarf. Well you are wrong. Wednesday night Kristi and her girlfriend Becca were trying to start Kristi's car. They needed to plow the parking lot and she had not been able to start her car on Tuesday to move it. So as the temperatures were tumbling down Wednesday night, Kristi with no hat, (she had a coat on), Becca with no coat (she had a jacket and sweatshirt on and a hat) were trying to jump the car. Coach Jennings came out and said what are you girls doing!! He gave Kristi his hat and said give this back to me tomorrow at practice. He tried to help but the car still wouldn't start. "Looks like she needs a new battery." So as we have many hats at the house Kristi didn't have one at school, so the great shopper that she is went to the store on Thursday to buy a new hat. It was a great "Deal" she said. It was regular $16 marked down to $8 marked down to $4 and then on sale for $3 so she bought it because it matches her new jacket that Jessie and Rob gave her for Christmas. So as you can see college is teaching her math skills if nothing else. By the way she was on the Dean's List for the first Semester at School.
