Like Father, Like Son!!!!

How cute is this picture? It was taken October 18th. I know I did not get a great start "blogging" and I am reminded every time I read Becki's site.... How awesome is she for keeping us all updated on her family and oh how beautiful they are!

So, back to the picture of my boys!!!! Drew was so excited to go hunting with his daddy. We had been discussing this day for a long time. The best part of the day was when Andy woke up Drew at 4 am to get ready.... I had already been awoken by Andy and his morning preparation and I had planned to "stay" asleep so that 1) Eason did not get up and 2) to let Andy and Drew make it a boy day from the start, and to tell you the truth I just did not want to get out of bed! As Andy woke up Drew the first thing out of Drew's mouth was, "I love you DAD, but I'm going to miss MOM when we are hunting". If that doesn't melt a momma's heart I don't know what would. Of course I instantly got out of bed with the biggest smile 4 am ever saw and sent my boys off for the day with lots of hugs & kisses, instructions on safety, and a variety of snacks and thirst quenchers....

They had a great time. No deer were hurt in the making of this episode, but a scavenge hunt in the woods turned up a really cool turtle shell and a lesson on the "skat" of different animals. I love being the only girl in the house!
