Shootin' Skeeters

Watch out! Chantel knows how to use a 7mm Remmington Rifle. Although I wasn't like Reed, who shot half of the clay pigeons, I did hit a couple...moving targets are so much harder :)


We tried smaller rifles and shotguns today, but the Remmington we had to sit down for so we didn't go flying back. I was a crack shot with that though. It had a sweet scope and I was able to blow a water jug sky high in one shot. I mean you should have seen this thing explode. We never did find the remains. It was so much fun, but I have to admit my shoulder is paying the price. I must have been holding the rifle wrong on one of my shots because it really kicked back hard. I think I'm going to have a nice bruise tommorrow.
And my fingers are going to be plenty exercised after our guitar hero extravaganza too. We added at least 20 songs to Heidi's game and nailed our oncore's. This is Reed's game face for the huge competition. It was intense to say the least!!!

Chantel are you left handed? How did I live with you and not know that? Or am I just viewing the first pic wrong? Anyway, looks like fun!
