2 year growth chart

Talia Charli Call 24 months

Weight: 24.0 lbs. (18%)

Height 35 in. (80%)

My friend Tarah told me that when you are two years old that is about half the size you will be as an adult. That would make Talia 5'10!!!! Maybe she did pick up some of the "Brown" gene after all!

Birthday Party!

Talia turned 2 on Oct. 27 2010... We invited family and a few of Talias friends to join us at PETER PIPER PIZZA.... Yes we have now entered into that world. (Pizza parties) It was a great party! Talia had so much fun surrounded by all the people she loves. Thanks again to everyone that came. Talia had a blast.......


Birthday Girl!!!!!!



Cake pops! (this is for you Krista)




Winner of best gift?!... Great-Grandma Call! She made Talia a blanket to go with a baby doll and Talia FREAKED out when she saw it. She carried that doll around the whole night. Grandpa Call was teasing Grandma Call all day for making a doll blanket so Grandma was happy to rub it in Grandpas face while Talia obsessed over the added part of the gift.



Dear Talia,
We are so lucky to have such a beautiful joy filled little girl.
You are so entertaining and make us proud every day!
Thank you for your big heart and for always offering
endless hugs and kisses. You are soooo special to us.
We will love you forever.
love, Mom and Dad

Unit 10 Rifle Deer Hunt

This year Blake was drawn for a Deer tag. (finally) Pore guy never gets drawn.... Talia and I decided to join him at the end of the weekend. His father and him had been after these 3 bucks that ran together. (I finally realize the bachelor party joke) They really do hang out in the same groups. The night we got there Blake glassed for a couple of hours while Tay and I napped in the car. We were not that much help. LOL....

He got back in the car and said "We only have an hour left of light." I was getting worried since he had not seen ANY deer. We began to drive to the next point where he could again use his binocs to find some deer. As we drove I spotted the 3 bucks on the right and told Blake to stop the car. He jumped out and shot one of the bucks over the hood of the car. It was very exciting. It all happened so fast. He took a shot and then took another shot. I saw 2 bucks running but not the third. I told Blake he must have hit one. He asked me over and over again if I was sure there were three. I was sure. He walked out into the bushes and found his nice 4 point kill. Great work Blake!!!!!!!



Talia and my first witnessed kill... and Bruzer too



Proud Hunter


He scored slightly over 165. Blake was STOKED!!!!
He was also thrilled to have the family there. We had a great time
