Let’s Talk Turkey

Chance took Cutter out of school on Thursday for a “real” hunting trip. It was to be his very first one and as you can see in the pictures…it was a success. I wish you all could have seen and heard the excitement in his little voice. He had his hunting clothes all laid out on the floor next to his hunting boots. He had his gun ready and his backpack packed with lunch and snacks. I am not sure how long it took him to fall asleep that night but he popped out of bed at 4:30 the next morning without a minutes hesitation. He ended up shooting this turkey all by himself with the shotgun that his Papa Check gave him. I am not sure who was more proud Cutter…or his Daddy!IMG00020-20100513-1304

This is the picture of Chance and the turkey that he shot a couple of weeks earlier. I can promise you – they are already talking about and planning their next hunting adventure!
