SUCCESS

Well it was all worth it, being "Hunting Widow" that is. Mark got this bull on the last day of the hunt. He is happy so I am happy! He had a really great time and got to spend time with his dad and a few friends and be in the mountains so it was a good hunt for lots of reasons. I have heard all the stories multiple times and I'm sure I will hear them lots more! Mark loves to tell them and the kids are always a willing audience! The whole neighborhood came over when Mark drove up with the Elk in the back of the truck, some were grossed out, some thought it was great! Mark had a good time showing it off and then we were off to Provo to get the meat to the butcher and the hide to the Taxidermist! Can't wait for the Jerky, it's so so good! I was excited because I thought that I would have my husband back and maybe get some things done around the house...but no, he had to work of course. So I patiently waited for Saturday thinking that it would be a good day to get some help out of him, what did we end up doing on Saturday you might ask?? Well, we spent quite a long time cleaning the dirty hunting truck! I wish I had taken before and after pictures of the truck. There was not a single inch inside and out that was not covered with mud and dust. It took quite a bit of elbow grease to get it cleaned. So I will again patiently wait until next Saturday, oh wait, it's conference, so who knows when I will get any help out of him....It will be nice when my boys are big enough to help me! I am sure if you ask Mark he would say that I do not wait very patiently, but it's my blog, I can say what I want!!!!
