deer hunting season.
the favorite season of my son.
he'd been waiting and planning for this years deer hunting season since last season!
no kidding!
all that waiting and dreaming and planning became reality when on the opening weekend, the second morning out, he shot his deer.
a four-point buck.
oh happy day!
he was one proud and happy boy!
good job, colter!
and he kept the two shells that he took to make the kill.
his first shot went through the spine and the deer instantly fell to the ground, but
that meant having to make another shot to kill it.
i know, gruesome....ewww!
but the boy loves anything thats related to hunting and fishing and guns and fishing stuff....
and on and on it goes.
it's in his blood, i swear.
this is the stuff that makes him happy.
he and his dad hung the deer up in the garage and colter began the task of skinning it out.
a day or two later they began the process of cutting up the meat.
he and wayne are the only ones in our family that enjoy
the taste of venison - and a few times a week colter takes a package from the freezer,
thaws it, and then cooks it up for himself and his dad.
sometimes he'll cook up a small steak and that will be his afternoon snack.
he does all the cooking himself - often smothering it in spices,
onions and mushrooms.
the other day they slow cooked a roast in the crock pot.
i have to admit it smelled pretty darn good.
he makes me smile.
what a guy!
