It's just the bug man!

So this morning around 8:00 I was lying in bed fast asleep with Mason. When all of the sudden I woke up and looked toward the bedroom door and to my suprise there was a man standing there. I couldn't really focus too well seeing that it is pretty dark in the basement. At first I thought it was Cameron, but then I noticed that this man was older so then I had the thought that maybe it was the man with Alzheimers that lives down that street ( he tends to wander). I started to panic a little, it's not every day that you wake up with a strange man in your room. So, I sat up and the man says "Don't worry, it's just the bug man"! I thought, "are you freaking kidding me"?? The exterminator just decides to come downstairs and start spraying in my room, doesn't care that there are people sleeping, or that it is just a little bit awkward to say the least. He proceeds to spray around my bed and dresser and then just walks out. Meanwhile, I am just laying there stiff wondering if I am dreaming, not wanting to move. So, anyway next time you wake up in the morning with a strange man in your room, "Don't worry, it's just the bug man!"

Birthday Fun

On Saturday we had an early 1st birthday party for Mason since my mother in law was leaving out of town. His actual birthday is on the 20th. Anyway, he had a lot of fun with all the cousins and he got some really fun gifts. I made my first attempt at a creative birthday cake for him, and I thought it turned out pretty good. Mason got this little red car that we can push him around in and he absolutely loves it! He can't get enought of it!

Mason and his Tiger

Mason has a love affair with his stuffed Tiger. He is constantly toting it around and dragging it with him where ever he goes. Whenever he is tired and ready for his nap he always snuggles up to it and it is the cutest thing in the world.

Cabin Pics

The Palmer Safari

Last night we had a wild night at the cabin. We took my sister and her family up to ride four wheelers and enjoy the cool weather. We got there and were eating our dinner, when all of the sudden Adam (my brother in law) heard some low grunting noises coming from the back of the cabin. We all ran out to see what it was, and there walking up through the trees was a large Moose!! It proceeded to walk right up to the cabin and onto the front porch. We had to run and shut the front door so it wouldn't come in! In all of my years going up to the cabin I have never seen a Moose so close. It stayed and munched on the trees around the cabin and then walked up the road. Then not 10 minutes later, a baby moose did the exact same thing, although she didn't get quite as close to the front porch as the Mom. We were so excited. The kids were wide eyed and Mason was trying to escape and go pet it! We decided to go on a ride, we were driving along and saw a lot of deer and some elk, and then my niece Savannah spotted 2 bull Moose with large antlers!! We couldn't believe it! We drove by slowly and watched them from a distance. We also saw 2 Porcupines. It was quite the night. It was a lot of fun! It was so beautiful up there the leaves were starting to change and there was definately a chill in the air. We decided that you don't need to go clear to Yellowstone to see wildlife, it's right in our own backyard!
