the Final Hunt

We headed up to the hunting camp this weekend for the last weekend of hunting season. Everyone was there except for Rachel and Hollis, but I was glad to get together with the fam again. My 25th birthday was Thursday, but they get much more anticlimactic as the years go by. All I did was, I had an interview, went to the grocery store, and pretty much did nothing the rest of the day (took my first day off of working out all month). However, Ben took me to lunch, took me to get a new beautiful watch (my b'day present), and cooked me rack of lamb for dinner, so those parts were special!

We had a fun weekend...as usual, momma planned a scrumptious menu, we had wine around the campfire, and just vegged out relaxing!

my little birthday cake Saturday night, I went hunting with momma. She shot an 8point BUCK Thursday night before we all got there (YAY GO MOMMA), so she figured she wouldn't want shoot anything else, so she let me go with her. Ben FINALLY got to go hunting by himself like most guys do (i just never let him b/c i don't want to go by myself).

Just as it started to get darker we saw a doe, that looked pretty decently sized. Since there wasn't anything else coming into the field, it was the last night of hunting season, and Ben and I have absolutely ZERO deer meat from the year, I decided to shoot the DOE! :) So, not a prize deer to be proud of, but still a kill, and some meat in the freezer.. and I didn't miss, so I was excited!
