Dove shoot, 11.23.2008

Daddy called Ben and then me to see if we wanted to go dove hunting, which of course we did!

Can't remember the name of their "club" but Mr. John Rogers is who always calls us, he is fantastic!

My brother Stanton, he is almost 10. A light of my life, this kid is HILARIOUS.

Yea, Daddy has on GREEN boots and the matching belt, he dyed them himself. It didn't quite turn out the right color, but he loves them anyway. Haha

Watching for the doves...

Stanton walked across to visit us, he was bored

Deisel was watching the wrong way...oh well.

Now he gets it! Ben shot one here, but a hawk swooped down and got it before we could send Deisel to it!

Just shells, I was entertaining myself with the camera

Ben shot another one for Deisel, this time he got to "Fetch it up"

Yum, I was so excited about this picture of him licking his chops. haha

So then this dove flew up and landed on the line before Ben could get a shot at him!

He didn't care about us a bit! We rustled around, hooted & hollered, waved at him, whistled at him...nothing. Eventually he turned around to completely ignore us!

Then Ben shot at another dove flying by and he STILL didn't move off the line! He was there for literally at least 10 minutes. He didn't even care when I walked out toward him!

Ben, with Deisel waiting between his feet.

Finally Stanton walked out and scared the dove up off the line! Deisel took off to get him too!

Stanton wanted to see him up close...eww

Daddy and Mr. John! We had such a good time!

Our "crew", this is where my new profile picture came from.

So we shot 3, took home a grand total of 3 (someone gave us the one he got)...

I'm not really sure what you do with 3 dove. Does that even make a whole meal?!

Stanton was tired!!! It was a good day!
