A Hunting We Will Go....

You Guys - HEY!
Just coming to you after the dirtiest - grossest weekend known to mankind - the deer hunt.
 Let me tell you something, the morning started at 3 degrees in the dark with Ace Face upchucking on my lap since the truck windows were frozen shut.  
And now I'm awake.  :)
Next to puke - Kaelster - who ralphed out the side window and created a nice camo pattern down the side of the truck door.  Wow.  On a roll.
Mama missed her first deer.  Let's not dwell on that.
Mama got a deer.  The tiniest two-point on the mountain.  
 Stopped Dax right in his tracks as we were hiking through the trees and he was dutifully watching his every step as he traipsed behind me through the leaves and logs studying the very ground he was walking on.
Daddy-o shot some pine hens that Wyatt spotted and the boys gleefully collected them and held them by their talons begging for him to cut one off for them to add to their "lucky rabbit's feet" keychains.  Ewww.

And Booner snuggled in at Grandma's house while she and Sophie took good care of him and played the whole day long with our little charmer.  The only one who wasn't covered head-to-toe in gross.  ;)
It was quick.  It was fun.  It was eventful.  And it's done.
And that's just how I like my deer hunts.
Thanks for making it memorable little lads.  We *mostly* loved having you around.
 Next year we'll work on volume levels.  Sigh.
