Pioneer Day Shooting

This Pioneer day, our family, along with my uncle Eric and aunt Laura, went shooting at our favorite spot, West of Utah Lake.  It isn't hard for my father to come up with an excuse to go shooting.  It was also a perfect chance to give Dave the ultimate boyfriend test - a shooting trip with my family.

This was the first time my Aunt Laura ever shot anything.  She did great.

Degn Family Reunion Part II

The rest of the 4th of July week was filled with even more family fun.  

When the Degn brothers get together, they somehow find an excuse to go shooting.  So that is what we did one of the days.

The highlight of the shooting trip was the .50 caliber sniper.  It was awesome.

.50 caliber bullet - it is huge

On another day, we all went camping together up in Heber.

We had dutch oven cooking,

roasted marshmallows,

and played games.

Also, the girls made "girly" bracelets,

and the boys made "manly" cord bracelets.

The reunion ended that Sunday with my cousin Clayton's mission farewell.

Catherine Degn, CPA

It is official - I am a CPA!  My CPA license came in the mail yesterday, which made for a very exciting day.  It only took 5 1/2 years of school (masters degree), 1 year of experience, and passing the worst test in the world, the CPA exam, (refer to post Done with the Tests) to have this piece of paper.
