Hunting 2010

Since I am awful at blogging I will only highlight some of our adventures. In October we went hunting with my Grandma and her husband Mike. We camped out in a tent trailer from Sunday til Friday. Yes, I went camping that long with a 7 month old and almost 4 year old. People didn't think that I would last but I did. It was very cold up in the mountains in Oct. So we spent most of our time in Grandmas trailer with the heater on. Grandma and Kaden went for their daily walks and collected mushrooms. There were mushrooms everywhere!!! It was amazing. Also Kaden had a blast feeding the birds and chipmunks with Grandmas 50 lbs. bag of food. This was Blake's first REAL hunting trip. He wasn't doing so well until I went out with him the day before we left. He had some amazing chances to shoot but missed. Then 15 minutes with me he got one. We won't mention that it was a little bambi but there was no way to tell from that far away and it was running. The worst part about the whole thing was that it was not died when we walked up to it. Mike made Blake slit its throat with a knife. The moaning that came from that deer with heart wrenching. I had to hold back the tears. Then I watched as he gutted it. That was disgusting but interesting. Then Mike made me hold the heart!!! So that is all I going to tell about that trip. It was fun but cold.










Grandma don't shoot me for putting up this picture. Kaden says he loves this picture because he is going under and you are going over.
