Blackpowder Season 2011

Finally a post that lives up to my title!  Deer Season has arrived which means fun, family, sunrises, sunsets, cold mornings, and hopefully a big buck!  Blackpowder season comes first and several of my family took really nice deer.  I had a great time hunting with my family.

Wiley went with us to Land's End one morning.  He had a blast!

Labor Day+Family+Dove Season=Fun

Our family is made up of some pretty avid hunters so each September we all get together to kick off the new hunting year...beginning with dove season!  Yum!  Anyhow, opening weekend always falls on Labor Day and it is so fun getting together with my family to hunt, celebrate birthdays, eat, and just enjoy each other's company.  I am sooooo looking forward to the day when the boys are actually big enough to go hunting with us.
