Deer Hunt

This year I drew out for a southern deer tag, so we went to Pangutich and hunted the whole week. Brandon and I took my 88 year old grandpa hunting with us, even though it was cold and bumpy he had so much fun. I am so glad that we were able to take him. I ended up shooting a deer right before dark one night, there were 3 or 4 deer together and I thought that I had shot the pretty good size 4 point. It got too dark to go find it so we went back the next morning, and this is what we found. Oops, I guess that I shot the wrong one. Oh well I guess is will make some good jerky!! My sister Missy went with us and on the way back to town she shot a pretty good 2 point. We had a good time hunting and Brandon was pretty patient with me. ( For those of you that don't know he takes hunting pretty serious.)

Grandpa Henrie all bundled up

While hunting one morning we got a terrible phone call that informed us that my cousin Hutch had been killed in a car accident. I still can't believe that he is gone, he will be missed so much in our family. He leaves behind his beautiful wife who is 2 months pregnant. His family has been through so much they have lost their sister, mom and now brother in 7 years. My heart aches for them. We went to Hutch's funeral on Friday and decided to stay the whole weekend. (Thanks for having us Wayne and Jess.) We went to Thanksgiving point and just hung out and played games at Wayne and Jessica's house. They had close to 30 people staying at their house it was so much fun just to be around all the family.

We love you and will miss you Hutch!!!
