A Man Like No Other

Today is my dad's birthday.

I wanted to give him a little blog tribute/shout out.

Readers, people of the world, my dad is the best there is.

Whenever someone brings up my dad or dads in general, I get this swell of pride and feel I need to share my thoughts and memories I have of my dad. I know when Tim and I are describing my dad, we have so much to say, but the words barely do him justice. He's just amazing. Our family is blessed and anyone who shares his kind and relaxed company is blessed as well.

Patient, hard working, determined, confident, brilliant, caring, selfless, God loving, supporter, comedian...the list goes on my friends.

I just wanted to say I love you dad and you have supported and loved this family every single day...and we are the people we are because of you. Happy birthday:)

p.s. not to say his partner in crime isn't just as great...my momma is his other half:) love you c

The Huntress

I am getting my hunting license tomorrow...

I can't tell you how excited I am to try something new.

I only wish I had an interest in it when my papa and dad would go...I could have learned so much! Now I'm playing catch up and this yankee better learn quick!!

Did I tell you that Rowdy's friends call me Yankee Doodle...I love it.

He's lucky to have such a different girlfriend;)

I should be packing deer meat soon out at Hunters Haven, which will be another new thing.

I'm at work and sleepy...at least I'm feeling better this morning. I'll keep you tuned for my upcoming adventures.

Yankee out..

10 Point

Mister Mountain Man Rowdy shot himself a nice 10 point texas buck on a wheat field at his deer lease yesterday around 430pm. I got the text

"Just smoked a 10"

I thought it was a joke, because when he gets bored in his stand, he usually sends me a text saying he saw a 170 class buck or shot a 10 or whatever...only to just be joking.

But it was for real this time and I was happy to be one of the first to find out and get a picture!:)

We went to Nick's (hunters haven) and awed and oooed and heard the story of the hunt. It was a great night and he had the biggest smile on his face. I'm proud and glad I got to share it with him:) I look forward to seeing the shoulder mount he gets from it.

I also had this amazing piece of cheesecake...pumpkin cheesecake. pumpkin pie and cheesecake in one...can't get any better than that!!

Now....it's my turn!
