Hunt 2008










Last year I took the hunting year off.  I do not know why.  Dad has really beeen honing his shooting skills with his sweet .270 Winchester.  He really did a great job teaching us young punks how to shoot.  It was really fun to spend some time with him.  I think that I am cursed to only kill the female ungulate.  I was able to shoot a cow elk at 44o yds. but I cannot shoot a deer at 300 yds.  I am glad that soccer is finally over.  Dansies team won the championship game for the 3rd season in a row.  She must be good luck.  I was proud of her.  When she is really hustling, she is really talented.  It is fun to see her improve.  I still do not know much about the FJ.  I do know that progress is slow, but I think that it should be done about Mid December.  It was supposed to be done this month, but oh well.  It snowed about 1.5' this weekend and feels like we should be singing Christmas songs.  I was singing one on the the way home to the Twins blessing but it felt really funny.  Dansie and I have been reading the Storm Testament Series.  I can see why I enjoyed them as a kid.  It is fun.  Kim is pregnant.  She is due some time in May and according to the Chinese Lunar Gender Calendar, It Should be a BOY.  Kim thinks that this is not possible, but I think that a little lad is on his way.  We shall see.

Beckett loved the movie. After we watched it the first time, he signed "more" so we watched it twice more. I think it was the music but maybe he is going to grow up to be a gun-toting hunter like his uncle! That will be very popular here in Amherst! The song selection is more ironic than the animals that were not "stayin alive." When we were kids dad didn't want us to listen to the Bee Gees because they were "funny." It was fun to hear your tales!
