Sacred Milestones

On November 1, 2009 our family had two milestone events

occur upon the same sacred day.

Our oldest child

Jacob Bryan Wilcox

was ordained to the Aaronic Priesthood

&

our youngest Child

Eve Isabelle Wilcox

was given a name and a blessing.

What a beautiful day!

(Thank you dear friend Becki- beckimadsenphotography.blogspot.com-

for helping us capture the sweet spirits of our children!)

Happy Halloween!

Nothing scary about this crew!

Aunt Laura came for a visit and made

crayon costumes for Aubree and herself! Adorable!

Seth was Darth Vadar, naturally.

Amelia wore the clown costume the my Mom made

for my little brother (who is now 28!)

And Eve and I were the perfect Farmer & Pea-in-a-pod duo.

Happy 12th Birthday Jacob!!!

Happy 12th Birthday Jacob!

Jake has grown up all too fast, but some things about growing up are great for both Jake and his mom and dad. For instance, most kids request mac 'n cheese for their birthday meal, and Jacob wanted ribs (and egg nog...of course). Here he is chowing on his slab of ribs on his birthday. We love you Jacob!!! We are so proud of you for your desire to live the gospel and receive the priesthood. Here are some pictures of his birthday party and some other photos of the past year.

Love,

Mom and Dad

Bryan's real “Elk”

Here are some long overdue pictures of the bull shot 2 weeks ago. Can’t believe it’s been 2 weeks already (Kinda feels wrong to be so excited about an elk when I have a beautiful new baby to show off, but how often do you shoot such a tremendous elk? Babies…well they seem to come along every other year….).

Here is my perspective of the elk from where I shot. 8 cows came out of the aspen on the far left (most of leaves appear to be off) and walked left to right to the crown of the hill and then stopped. The bull followed them out about 15 seconds later. (elk is down b/w the aspen and the crown of the hill).

Thinking of putting this one in my office lobby.... "the doctor will see you now."
