Deer Hunting!!!


This past week-end we were thrilled to have Dad's brother and part of his family visit us from New Mexico! They flew in Friday night and joined us for supper of Esther's yummy pizza!!! :) After supper, we enjoyed a wild game of "Catch Phrase", which had us all rolling with laughter!!
Saturday morning the boys were up early for their first excursion. They came back mid-morning, empty-handed but excited at the thought of the huge breakfast awaiting them!!! We enjoyed a wonderful time of fellowship over breakfast, but soon everyone was ready for some more hunting!!
Aunt Judy decided not to join us in the hunting, but instead enjoyed a massage from Esther!!
We chased a whole bunch of deer out of a pasture, hoping to get Uncle Bernard a shot, but the deer managed to avoid getting in his sight. I nearly got run over by several deer, and because I didn't fire a shot, a rumor started that my trigger finger was paralyzed. :) Seth had a classic hunters moment, and missed a couple shots, but ended up bringing home a deer!!!

What a fun story! That's great that Seth shot a deer. Too bad about your trigger finger! ;-(

Yes, Catch Phrase has been SO much fun!! We couldn't find Catch Phrase Junior, so we just got regular Catch Phrase! It is a lot harder but still fun!! Every time we play, we think of you, Ali!!! :)
