Weekend at the Hun-Tin House

Rob and I packed up the kids early Friday afternoon, and hitched a ride with Papa to Georgia.  We were so excited to finally have a full weekend of hunting.  I’m so thankful that our ENTIRE family enjoys it so much. 

Here are our little hunting buddies!  Aren’t they so cute?

We made it to our stand around 5:00 that afternoon.  We were hunting a new location, so we were excited to see what was there.

Rob must not have been too excited.  He just needed a nap:)

SaraGrace is all business when her Daddy wakes up.  Give that girl some “noculars” and she is good to go.

Friday afternoon, we had a lot of action.  We saw 10 turkeys, a raccoon in the tree right next to us, a 3-point, another turkey, and then we finally shot a coyote.

Saturday brought even better luck.  We hunted a different location again, and this is what we came home with…

We each got a hog.   This was my first kill with my new gun, and  I was so proud of myself.  But I think Rob may have been even more proud.  Especially since it only took one shot! 

As far as progress on the Hun-Tin house goes, this is the latest addition.  This fireplace is slap dab in the middle of the great room.

Things are moving slowly with the house, so we will not be in by Thanksgiving.  But to tell you the truth, we wouldn’t trade the memories of being all cooped up in that little ole’ trailer.  Good times, y’all!!!
