When I saw the theme for this week's I <3 Faces challenge,: “Sun Flare”, this picture just popped into my head! :) I love the Sun Flare coming down on her. Isn't Hannah such a pretty girly? I sure love that Dahling!

We came home from Oregon 3 weeks ago, and we stayed home for 1 day, then us older kids and Dad went to the mountains to go kill off some deer so we can have meat for the rest of the year. And, guess what?! I've got pictures! Joe got a big doe, Ben got a doe and her baby buck, and Kate got her first deer, a yearling Buck.

I can't find the pictures for them, so we will switch to the second time we went hunting, this last week.

Camp! Most likely everyone (except the one taking the picture) was eating lunch inside the big camper.

left to right: Eric, Kate, Dad, Me, Beth, Joe, Ben. Eating dinner of smoragasborg.

First morning, Beth got a 3x3 pt buck.

Same night, Kate got her second deer, a yearling doe.

A couple mornings later, Dad got a 4x4 pt buck, huge!

Then, on our last evening, Eric got a 3x1 buck, and Ben got a big doe. Erics buck, the 1 point is because the antler had broken off in a fight with some other buck.

So, day before yesterday we got home, and yesterday morning we processed all the deer.

Anne and I were the only ones that needed A tags filled, so last night we went to a friends ranch, but didn't see any deer. Then, this morning we went back and drove all around the property, and I shot my first deer there.

Trying to pull her up a little hill so we can get our picture taken.

Admiring my deer! Or, commenting on the tongue sticking out :-P

Great profile picture!

Thats what has been going on, mostly! Oh, I did a nice neck shot, and got her at 8:00 AM, on the dot.

Emily :-D

Isaiah 25:8
He will swallow up death forever. Adonai ELOHIM will wipe away the tears from every face, and he will remove from all the earth the disgrace his people suffer. For ADONAI has spoken.

Revelation 21
He will wipe away every tear from their eyes. There will no longer be any death; and there will no longer be any mourning, crying or pain; because the old order has passed away."

Love you, Grandpa!

Please continue to pray for us and also my Great Grandma who is by herself now, and also for my Uncle Keith. It's been hard for them too.
