~The Deer Hunt~

This year we made the deer hunt a family event. The kids and I went with Dave, Becky and the girls came with Jeff, and Marc brought up Randee. Our plan was while the men were out hunting us girls would hang out back at camp. We headed up Thursday night. Friday was a very nice day. We set up camp, rode 4 wheelers, went on a walk/hike around our campsite, and my dad and Dave went up to check out their hunting spot. They saw about 90-100 deer and were stoked for the hunt to open the following morning.

I know this is kind of gross, but as we were exploring around we saw a dead coyote hanging from a tree. Hunter thought this was so cool.

Mckell is our little camper. She loved helping to gather rocks for the firepit, wood for the fire, and absolutely loved helping my dad make the fire.

So Friday was a nice day, but Saturday was a different story. It rained a lot and even snowed up on the guys as they were hunting. Since the weather wasn't the best, the deer were not out and about, so they didn't have much luck with the hunt. Back at camp we spent the day watching movies, coloring, and decorating sugar cookies.

Playing Games. The guys thought that Sunday they might get a chance to do some more hunting, but boy were they wrong. It rained, no poured, the entire day. So we spent the whole day playing games and watching movies waiting for the rain to subside, but it never did.

Eventually, we realized that the rain wasn't going to stop so we packed up and headed home. Not the most successful hunt, but we had a good time.
