Cinnamon Rolls


Remember these....go here for recipe. I tweaked the recipe some, I rolled my biscuit dough out and filled with butter, cinnamon, and sugar. I didn't measure the amount of each ingredient used as filling, I just filled till it looked good. Then I cut into rolls and placed in pans. Kelli's way is faster, so use what works for you

Taxidermist


We took a road trip (1hour) to Dagmar, MT to drop of Mason's Buck at the taxidermist. The taxidermist showed us the process of mounting the game and why it takes six months to get the finished product.

Mystery Moose

We've been told there are moose living in our area but we've never seen one. After 14 months of living here Chris spotted two just 1 mile north of our house. It is a poor picture but the moose fled when Chris moved closer for a better shot.

Grandma, Grandpa, and Kids

Following are pictures of my mom and dad taken while we visited Arizona. Mom and dad were so kind and generous to us on our visit, we are thankful for the time we had with them. They are two of the hardest working people I know. Dad is always fixing or tinkering with something. He retired from Phelps Dodge a few years back, so now he stays busy with projects at home. And mom expresses excellence in all she does. She is an exceptional housekeeper. They have nine grandchildren, five boys and four girls. We LOVE you Grandma and Grandpa.
Here's my mamma, she doesn't look her age, trust me. She made me menudo while we were visiting. It was delicious!
And here's my daddy, the kids call him "Cowboy Grandpa".
I love this shot, even though Heather and Laura are missing.
Here's mom with a her mijo's (spanish for little sons).

Daddy's Girls


Here's a picture of the girls and I. This was taken by my friend Jody when we visited AZ.

Pumpkin Dinner Rolls


I made a batch of these rolls last week and we loved them. They were delicious! I will be making these to go with our Thanksgiving feast. You can find the recipe here. When I made our rolls I did not have a can of pumpkin, but I had a can of yams, and it worked. We could not taste the yams, so I am assuming you will not taste the pumpkin either. The pumpkin or yams are used to replace the oil usually called for in a roll recipe. Enjoy!
