Bow Hunting

This last weekend our little family went camping for the opening of the bow hunt. Camping at this time of year is my favorite. The weather is sunny with the crisp of fall (my favorite season) in it. Not to hot not to cold. The kids had a blast. They collected bugs, played in a creek, rode on the 4-wheeler & ate insane amounts of junk food.

Logan is growing up way to fast and in true LeRoy fashion was obsessed with hunting. He and his dad hunted deer, ground dogs, birds, and what ever else they could find. They even ran into a badger but decided not to shoot it. He loved it all. He has a bow & pocket knife of his own (neither of which I had any say in) and thinks himself the mightiest if hunters. My cousin Vince even taught him to start a fire (please pray for my house).


Scott and Logan got up early on opening morning and Scott missed a spike x 3. He wanted to kill one with Logan so bad that he rushed it and missed but later that morning my cousins son found the same deer and killed it. This is that funny little deer.



Aubrey and I had a great time just hanging out together while the boys were hunting. It was a lot of fun and a great family tradition.

New Members of the Family



We got two new bunnies!!! Are we crazy? Yes! My kids have been begging for a pet for a while now and always for a cat or a dog. Then a couple of weeks ago Logan changed his mind and started asking for a rabbit. Scott thought this was a great idea and now we have two French Lop rabbits. They are so cute. They are the size of a small adult cat and are still babies. They will be around 12 lbs. when fully grown. We figured the bigger they are the less likely that kids will hurt them and that the rabbits would be able to squeeze under the fence.



Logan named this guy Copper. Both of his ears flop to the same side and he is so mellow. He follows Logan around and lets him carry him all over the place.



Aubrey named this one Raccoon (silly girl). He is a little more spry but still super sweet. He is very fast and lets the kids chase him. He like to lay on his back and get his belly rubber like a dog.
