St. Hubert pray for them


If we were in the US for Thanksgiving, no doubt we would be in Pennsylvania surrounded by family and friends preparing for antlered deer season which starts Monday.
And for those family and friends, I would like you to know that Myles is already talking about all the hunting he is going to do when he gets older. No doubt getting to shoot arrows at Grandma's this summer really cultivated his interest in hunting, because already he is asking about when he can get his own bow and sit in a tree. He's also been asking what kind of gun he is going to get to shoot. I'm actually excited about his getting the opportunity to go hunting when he is older. Hunting is really important to Randy's family, and Myles (and probably Brigid, too) will really come to treasure hunting season with the family. And besides, if Myles is hunting, that means we are in the US, for living or for a visit.

My dad was a hunting man! Most of my childhood was spent around ducks, pheasants and deer...being cleaned and cooked!!
I think the hunting must have been the fun part...because cleaning them and eating them never seemed to do it for me!

Hope you're doing well! I know you probably don't have time for this but I have tagged you for a book meme. Don't feel bad not doing it though...you won't hurt my feelings.

Oh you so got that right. Devin always said he was going to take Myles and Collin to the family farm to hunt. He is waiting for the day to come. Collin wants to go this year but it is still a no go,maybe next year. I can already see it this summer Collin and Myles having target practice with their bows off of the back porch. I can't wait to see it. We will send a pic of the deer anyone gets on Monday so Myles can be a part of it too.

Just wait until Donavan reads this. He will be happy.. I am sure he will be looking forward to this summer target practicing right along Collin and Myles and hunting with them in a few years. He really would like to go hunting but hasn't had the chance. He keeps assuring me that Bella will be a hunter. Whenever he sees a deer he tells Bella there is a tasty deer. Isn't that awful and I hate deer meat.
