South Dakota Hunting Trip

Dub went to South Dakota last week for a pheasant hunt. He had a great time. Here are a few pics from his hunt.

Good Job Daddy! We are glad you had fun!

The Baxter Family!

John, Hannah, Tracy and Daniel

Tracy... this was my favorite one.

New Hair!

Here are the pics of my new hair cut and color. It really is hard to get a pic of your hair in a mirror. (: What do ya think?

The BB Gun!

Back tracking a bit. October opened dove season. We went to an all day dove shoot with the boys. Warren got his first BB gun for the big event. We had some target practice then headed to the field. Warren was so excited. We quickly had a little hunter on our hands. Dub only brought my gun so ...I got to shoot. I would "Knock them down" then Warren and Daddy would go find them and "finish them off." He really like the experience. Will had a blast too. He would tag along to retrieve the birds. He had no problem carrying them back to the truck. He tried to feed the dead birds sunflower seeds. I decided to pass the gun off to Dub when I turned around and Will had a dead bird dangling from his mouth! He had been carrying it and decided to place the birds head in his mouth so that he would have free hands for other things. That was tooo much for me. I passed off the gun and kicked into Mommy mode:)
The boys both helped to clean the birds. Warren can give you the full details on how to clean doves. He has it down. He even could do it himself. It was a great day of family fun. The pictures are all out of order but you will get the idea.

Getting the hang of it!

The boys and there birds.

Getting ready to clean the birds.

Satisfied with his take!

Checking on how they did hitting the practice target.

Stay behind the shooter Will!

His first gun!

Even Daddy loves the new gun!

We have had many shooting sessions since the big day. Warren is getting pretty good!

Happy Halloween

We are READY... Are you? We are planning to go to our church's fall festival tonight. Both monkies are getting into character.
We would also like to say Happy 81st Birthday to Nanny!

New Presidential Canidate?

Check it out. Did anyone know this was happening? I can't believe I was in the dark!

We are BACK!!!

Wow. What a great trip. Perfect! We relaxed, rejuvinated, laughed and slept! (:
But now, we are back and in full "Cornell Form." Since we got off the boat yesterday we have... Driven to Mt. Dora, spent time at the office (Dub), gone to Wauchula to get the boys (Claire), returned to Mt. Dora, took the boys to the movies, took pictures of my "three boys," bought Warren his first bb gun, and we all went to a dove shoot all afternoon!
Not bad for a few hours(:
Will post more later Dub and I have some dvr shows to catch up on.
