Turkey Hunting


Turkey hunting / camping was fun - David and Sarah putting out the feed in hopes of luring in some turkeys.  I am pretty sure they were watching, otherwise how would they have known where the blinds were??

Tank was having a blast running around, rolling in the meadow. 

 But, no turkeys were to be shot by Brian and David.  They did, however, shoot five squirrels.  No, we don't eat squirrel, but Tom, our son-in-law does.   Now we just have to remember not to scream when we open the freezer and there are squirrels!

Sarah was quite the trooper - learning about hunting, how to skin a squirrel.  She taught us a better way to make our breakfast burritos too!!  I (Vicki) truly enjoyed getting to know her.  She has a beautiful heart that loves Jesus.

The camo boys while coming up empty handed had a blast.  It was cute to watch them get up at 5:00am without complaining....  Hunting is one of those things that bonds.

The weather was pretty cold and rainy.  The nice part of having a camper is NOT being on the ground while it is raining!!

We saw LOTS of deer and elk.  Probably because that season ended the day we arrived.  The same way all the turkey will come out of hiding next Friday!!

We did get to see the leaves as they started changing colors.  God does such amazing work.

God is so good to us.  The opportunity to get away and relax, to enjoy each other's company, to spend time just worshipping Abba Father.
