Big Buck Thanksgiving

It was the BEST kind of holiday Kyle, er we, could possibly ask for, as it was a big buck Thanksgiving!  Just as we were about to set out for Auntie Kim's house to enjoy her delicious Thanksgiving dinner, we got the call... "Big buck down!"  Never mind that dinner was delayed until nearly 7 p.m.; there is no disputing priorities in this family (and Auntie Kim graciously kept things warmed)!  The girls could not have been more thrilled with Daddy's largest slay ever, a beautifully wide 10 point buck scoring in at 130. 

Pictured here with 11 year old neice, Sydney and her awesome buck from this season along with the wisest hunter of the bunch, Kyle's dad.

Jeff & Chelsea (with Ella 3 & Jax 1) were in from California for Thanksgiving as well!  The last time we saw one another, Piper & Ella were just babies.

Admist the slaying (and gutting), we found a little time to head down to Canal Park with the ladies (Grandma A, Auntie Kara, & Auntie Kim) for some shopping.  

And before leaving the Northwoods, we snuck out into the cold drizzle to snatch up a few boughs, branches, berries, and miniature Christmas trees for the girls' bedrooms back home.








We were a rather ridiculous looking crew as we drove into the woods in search of the brightest winter berries and perfectly sized pine trees, but oh did we have fun!
