opening weekend.

Well,  I said I'd update on the hunting adventures from opening weekend and I'm sad to say that I did not shoot a deer. Although, my sweet husband did kill a nine point buck and I'm so proud of him!

I think I mentioned last time that I have been hunting with Chris a few times but this was my first time actually planning on shooting something other than a target. I enjoy going with him but I could not believe how much fun it was to actually hunt! Wow! It was a blast! Spending two days basically alone with Chris might have something to do with it but sneaking around holding a weapon is pretty fun too! I wont be able to go again until after Thanksgiving for antlerless season but I'm already looking forward to it!

YAY! Deer meat!
It has been so great having Chris's mom and sister here for a few days! They had to head out today and I'm sad to see them go! It was really fun to have some company at our home and spending the time with them was fantastic!

I actually got an extra day with them that I wasn't expecting but the reasons weren't great. I noticed a couple of bug bite looking spots last Monday and throughout the week they continued to grow and grow and grow... by Friday I was pretty concerned and went to the doctor before we hit the woods for a couple of days. That appointment was now fun since there were shots, cutting, and squeezing going on. Turns out it was a infection called MRSA which is a form of staph. Ick! Luckily, they have drained almost completely and seem to be doing well thanks to some antibiotics!

This was at 3:30 am when we were getting ready to leave for hunting.
 She was not thrilled about being awake!

Just had to show this! She's getting huge!
