Family Outing

We packed a lunch and took off for an all day field trip into the wilderness. It was a beautiful day with a few showers. We had a great time. (Even though we lost the brakes on our truck, drove back to town, then headed for home, and ended up in our van!)

Scott was the first to spot the partridge, but you know how it is when someone else sees something and you don't! He was the only one that could see it! The rest of the kids and I looked, and looked, but just couldn't see it! So, no bird shot here!

Finally, David sees one.............

Success!!!!!.Penne springs into action..........

Great job David, Penne, and Tim!!!

You all know what this is right? Yes, its that creature that screams throughout the night and holds me up in a tree stand! The coyote!

Why can't I seem to escape these things? They are showing up everywhere I go!

So I kicked my protector and my first born out of the truck to go kill it! They didn't get it!


Another partridge!


Penne did such a good job! This is her first experience with these birds.


This is the last picture I will show you (I promise) :)

This is the last one I snapped for the day:)

We saw a beaver dam and a Blue Heron on our way out of the woods.

No moose though. Considering the start to our day we all had a good time.

We ended up at a Chinese restaurant, can you end the day any better!
