We have had an eventful November. It started with playoff games for the Midway High School Panther Football team. This meant that the band had to play for all of the games. We ended up at AT&T stadium in Arlington the weekend before Thanksgiving. The Panthers lost by one point. Thanksgiving we gathered at the ranch with Christa's brother and his family, her parents and her grandmother and one of her great uncles and his wife. We had a nice meal and got to visit. After lunch we played Mexican train and Chicken foot. The next day we got out the old pumpkins from Halloween and the Fall and had target practice. Greerson was determined to get a deer so he and Grandpa Woody sat in the condo (their fancy deer stand they built last summer) two mornings. Greerson's snoring hindered their progress the first day, but the second morning they had success. Greerson was so excited to shoot his first deer. He learned to process it and is even tanning the hide.
We will be enjoying fresh venison this winter.
