Title: Girls vs. Gobblers (pic. heavy)
Post by: Onions on May 11, 2011, 03:49:00 PM
On Sat. I had my first chance to take my girls out turkey hunting! They have been talking about this all winter.
Thanks to a good friend who loaned me his popup blind, this made it all possible.
"The girls" made it apx. 45minutes in the blind, then they wanted to go for a walk. No turkeys were heard or seen, I can't figure out why!
A great time was had by all!
I think I hear something!

We need to hurry!

This sure is a "cool tent"!

Dad surprised us with "new shirts!"

This turkey hunting gives me a headache!

The turkey's will be here any minute...

This sure is fun!

I think we should have put our tent over there!

Can we pick this flower for Mommy...

Very good work, Daddy!

I almost think you MIGHT have said, "OK, Smile, now!" on one or two of those pictures!  Great times, great memories, great investment!     :thumbsup:

Sounds like your priorities are just right.

I'm waiting for my first grandson to grow a little more, then it's off to the woods...let's see the X BOX compete with that!

Thanks to all for your comments! It's great encouragement for me to continue keeping "the ladies" outdoors.
It's not always easy to get a 2 and 4yr old ready to go outdoors, but it is always worth it!
Hopefully we can get out one or two more times, if so I will post more pix!
thanks again
