Daddy's Girls

Kevin hasn't been able to get out hunting a whole lot this year, but the other night we had two deer out at our oak tree. While the girls and I were watching it from the patio door, Kevin was trying to sneak up on them. Well, I didn't know this and Kinsley let out a big scream and of course the deer ran away. Needless to say, when Kevin came in, he wasn't any too happy with all of us. So the next day he decided he would set up his blind in the yard and hunt from that. While Kinsley napped, Keltie and I helped him set it up just right. When it was time for hunting, we were confined to the basement so that there wouldn't be any chance of spooking the deer. Well, 19 minutes after he went out, he was knocking on the basement window to tell us that he had gotten one. Keltie wanted to go out and see it so Kinsley went with and they both had to get their pictures taken with Daddy and the deer. The next day, when Kevin was cutting the meat off the deer, Keltie stayed out there the entire time with him and kep asking questions. Future hunter? Maybe. If so, then she can help Daddy cut up the meat instead of me.

What do you think...Christmas card?

I'll take the summer vacation Christmas card version instead. Nice size deer though, Kevin. Of course Paul thinks it looks like a hindquarter shot (he would never admit he knows differently!)
