We had a fun time putting our tree up, we put the tree up on Monday and left for Grandpa's and Grandma's on Wednesday AM.. and got back 4 or 5 days later.. BUT it was still fun and we all enjoyed it..

Here is Jason setting up the tree. Plus the little Icon was showing Nathan that his icon was a tree for Christmas.

Merry (Be~Lated) Christmas and a Wonderful New Year....

We had a great Christmas. WE left Christmas eve and went to Grandpa's and Grandma's (Jason's parents) we came home yesterday (Sunday).. They boys have been playing there video games and I have been just vegging around the house.. Jason and his brother went hunting today. I will be back later with some photos of our fun times with family. I need to find my camera and take a picture of Sam... I just found out that he is sleeping on the floor.. its 4:45pm and my 12 year old is taking a nap.. awww

We will be having Christmas with Poppy and Grammy (my parents) in about 2 weeks.

Well just wanted to pop in and say hi and give you all a little update..

Sam's First Bird....

Yeapers.. Samuel shot his first pigeon yesterday. I forgot to send our camera with Jason so we don't have a picture of his first kill... BUT I'm still very happy for Sam. He also shot a quail too..

So now I need to learn how to cook pigeon.. I so hope this taste good...lol Oh the joys of having hunters in my family, we get to try new things.. tomorrow they are hoping to go pig hunting. I know to some this is mean and all.. but to us it's putting meat on our table.. I look it as God is providing another meal for my family.. and I'm very blessed by that..

Thank you Jesus for giving Sam the eyes to see the bird and the knowledge to know when to shot.. Well if they go shoting agian tomorrow I will let you know if they get anything..
