Future Hunters???

it IS that time of year again

bow hunting..

soon rifle hunting

it's HUNTING SEASON!!!

yes even the toddler is donned with 

ORANGE..

Why?

well for all of you who do not hunt

and may not be aware..

Orange is a safety color

we wear it through out hunting season

to be SAFE

.. 

what if a bow hunter saw some scurrying in the woods

what if it was low profiled 

and dressed in green camp..

that hunter might SHOOT my baby!

So ..

in this orange 

he shall be SEEN

if he should escape the General

this Orange is blaring!

it's actually called

BLAZE ORANGE

it's required for every hunter to wear it during deer hunting season

it's smart for even non hunters to wear..

when out hiking or walking about..

it is just..

SAFE

Little Man LOVES his "Blaze Orange" 

hat

and vest..

he feels SUPER big!

very authoritative too..

Hey Mama..

What's Buddy doing??

Buddy found himself a 

very BIG stick

looks a bit like..

a hobbit..

gotta love my smile-E boyz!

best friends…

worst enemies…

they love one another as only brothers can love

my future hunters… ?

and gee..

they are wonderful!

The Range

I want to join Robin's Merry Band TOO

We have ranges at the farm

one for Archery

one is for guns

one is for bbguns

Little Man isn't allowed ANY where near them..

but he is really hoping to be one of the Merry Men too!

So C.S. is showing Little Man

HOW to shoot a bow 

pull back

release.. where did it go?

Here's BUDDY with his BIRTHDAY bow set!

He got a quiver too

That box is HIS target

off he goes to set up again..

or maybe to look for an arrow..

saying Hi to Opa and C.S. at the Rifle Range

They are sighting in their scopes

Buddy is & now

He's got a quiver

a bow 

some arrows

and orange to be safe

some day he'll be bringing me food to cook

JUST like Papa

(ooops.. 

Papa didn't get deer this year... 

shhhhhh)

but THAT's ok

Buddy STILL wants to be just like HIS Papa

isn't that wonderful!
