The kids and I took the entire week of Thanksgiving off from school. I did some calculations and we are ahead of the game so we could take the week off and still get done a week (almost two weeks) early in the summer.
One of the days I took Max out to the hunting shack. All he talks about is hunting, guns, bows, and animals. Thought he might think this was great.
While I was getting Max ready I handed off the baby to one of the new hunters to the crew. Cousin Jake.
Max is all ready and totally embarrassed.
He kept saying “seriously”. And rolling his eyes up into his head.
Once he was outside with just Grandpa John he didn’t stop talking.
Grandpa made it like a real hunt. He took his gun. He put a walkie talkie in Max’s pocket. Just in case they got something they could radio back to the shack.
So pretty out!! If I was any kind of real photographer I would of stole an orange jacket and followed them for some amazing pictures. But I didn’t want to ruin their little moment either.
While they were out walking Mallory and I talked to them on the walkie talkie. Max didn’t want to talk to us but he told us it was really slippery and he fell on his butt.
Max and Grandpa headed down another trail and meanwhile these three hung out.
Of course Mallory wants a turn to hunt too.
Apparently all she wanted to do was skate around on the ice and play in the snow. She was not so much into that looking and being quiet for deer.
Melanie was a happy baby that day! She is a happy baby almost every day though!
Then the real hunters were getting ready to go out and Max watched with great intensity out the window.
Recently discovered her feet! Ripping socks off is a great game – so I just don’t even put socks on.
Good luck hunter hugs!
Mallory is back from her hunt!
