Well it is that time of the year againg TRAPPING SEASON!!!!! And so far I have only caught one raccoon over in Dan's corn. I have tree traps there and haven't caught anything in the last two days, although I have had my traps robbed and one is getting stepped on by deer. I would have never known had it not snowed the last two days, so now I will move it down away from where they are walking. Well off to reset and move the traps, had to wait for it to warm up Will gets too cold and Olivia stayed home from school today, she wasn't feeling well, but now she is felling better. I hope so because she is worried about missing the Fall fun Fest and parade at school tomorrow. I will post pictures of her and Will dressed up later and maybe something that I caught if I get lucky (nothing to gross that just isn't right).

Well this week Denny started working for Lynnwood driving water truck. This is the truck he gets to drive they just got finished putting on the finishing touches so it could go out today. Denny couldn't wait for the truck to get done. They have been working on it all week and longer than that. Yesterday they got to try it out, there was a fire up by Randy Smith's house (not his house). All three trucks loaded up with water and hauled it up to the fire men trying to help. They get up there and they didn't need them but the fire men came to Jack's pond to get water and they hauled it up. Nobody can say that Kiester Trucking isn't there to help out when they can what a good bunch of guys they are!!!!!!!!!

On Saturday we went to Bennezette to see the elk. This is not the biggest one we saw but is the best picture I took of one looking straight on. We saw about 100 elk, about 6 or 7 of them were bulls. The kids like to go they named this one Elliot from the movie "Open Season". It was a great day to go the weather was perfect, wasn't too cold, although it was pretty windy at times up there on the hill side at the one viewing area we stopped at.

Isn't it ironic that Denny's mom and Paul and my mom and Jim got married on the same day, not sure on how many years apart they are but my mom and Jim have been married for 9 or 10 ten years I think (I'm just sure on the day) on October 16th. So HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO YOU GUYS!!!!!!!

Well the leaves they are a changin'. Isn't it great. This is my favorite time of the year, not to hot not to cold, but just right. Hunting season is just around the corner, well first will be trapping, then hunting I can't wait. Then all the snow, YAY!!!!!!!!!!

No need to decorate for halloween. This spider has been in the kitchen window since we moved in. This is the first I've seen in move.

Here is a look of how our leaves are turning back here in Mahaffey. These are my first ones of the fall season, they were taken at the sawdust pile. I'm gonna check on them next week and take more pictures to see how much difference there is in just one week.

These two young 4 wheeler riders are getting braver. These were taken at the sawdust pile over the hill by Rob and Dawn Smith's house. They had fun going up and down that is the low side they aren't allowed to go up any other side, for those who have been on the sawdust pile you know how steep it is. I watched from a distance (makes me too nervous).

Moday was Will's birthday. On Saturday we had a party for both Olivia and Will. They invited all of their friends and had a really good time. Will got a new bike and Olivia got an MP3 player, form us and a bunch of toys and things from everyone else. He is now 5 years old and can't wait to go to school and ride the bus with Olivia.
