Eventful Week

Since "Gateway to the Birds of Prey" is Kuna's town motto, the BLM holds a yearly Art Contest for the schools in Kuna. The picture above is Emma's entry.

This is Logan's entry. Next to his elbow.



This is Megan's entry. She won 3rd place for her age group. All the winning entries will be assembled into a calendar.






Last night was the National Junior Honor Society recognition ceremony. Megan has been a member for two years now and we are so proud of her.

Cooking School and Whistle Pig Hunts

*
I have been wanting to attend a mini cooking school offered by Taste of Home Magazine for years. I finally got to do that this year and it was really fun. Megan and I showed up a couple hours early to look at some Booths and we were surprised to see people already lined up to get good seats for the cooking school. It's a good thing we got there early because the place was packed and was sold out. They demonstrated about 10 recipes and had a ton of door prizes. We didn't win any but we were excited about the cool gift bag everyone was given.

Wednesday was opening day for the annual Wagstaff Whistle Pig Hunt. Dave's Dad, Uncle Mark, Uncle Dean, Dean's son Mike and Ann's Husband Mike all showed up ready to decrease the population of this poor little creature. They got a little rained on yesterday but today is supposed to be nice. They'll be shooting until they run out of bullets or Saturday night, whichever comes first.
