The Hunt

The following pictures were taken during the youth hunt in Jackson. As you can see, Kenzie got really excited about the lack of deer and the steady rain that was falling! John said she fell fast asleep, but since he didn't see any deer, she didn't miss much. The following day Mason went with John, but yet again the deer did not show up. Thankfully we already had two deer in the freezer for the year! I told John and the kids that I will be pushing them out the door to go hunting as soon as deer season starts up again. We ordered a meat grinder for the deer John got this year and future deer so we can begin processing them ourselves! You may be looking at the exclamation point at the end of that sentence and asking yourself, "what woman would be excited about that?" This frugalista sure is! I think there is something rewarding about eating the deer that my boys have provided for us, and look forward to adding to that when we have put in the work to process it too.

MD, I think you could add a chapter to the cookbook I showed you at Christmas, The Pioneer Woman. You are every man's dream, well, at least YOUR man and that's who counts!!! Thanks for the pics. So great to read your wonderful posts. Take care and have a great evening!
