(WARNING: Photo of my little deer hunter and his first deer. I know some of you don't like the more graphic photos related to hunting so come back tomorrow! Thanks!)
Jake took his first deer this afternoon, a button buck! This weekend was youth season in Kentucky. He had been practicing with his .243 he got for Christmas last year. I knew he could hit the target but wondered how he would do with "the real thing!" All you hunters here would have been proud! He was as steady as a rock!
He dropped him where he stood! He also helped me dress him out but said I have to cook it! I bet he eats his fair share of it! He told me he thought he was ready to kill one with "big ole antlers" now! What can I say, hunting is in our blood and his Dad and I are very proud of him!
Congratulations Jake - Master Deer Slayer!!
It's official, I'm not giving the camera back! I'm having way too much fun with it! Possession is 9/10 of the law, right?
I know you're reading this.
Wonder where they think they are going??
My little mini-herd!
Dimple in the lead, followed by Sara, Penelope and Honey Bear bringing up the rear!
Oops, I've been spotted and Penelope wants an apple or two!
and we have added one more to our goat herd. Meet Baby Jonah! He's my first half-Lamancha/half-Kinder and an absolute doll. He's Lucy's first baby and she is such a good Momma!
and the triplets, well they are all boy and growing fast. Their favorite place to sneak to is the barn loft! Those stacks of hay bales are perfect for jumping on!
Buddy
Blackie
and of course, the little round guy, Brownie.
He's still spoiled rotten and super sweet!
Bella and Nellie are both bred to the Lamancha buck as well and are due next month!
