After reading the intro by armedhippie talking about raising his kids in the country I though I would post photos of our Grand kids learning a little about camping, fishing, horses and firearms. I enjoy doing this with them probably more than they do!
Our oldest Grandson, Steele.

And his string of catfish.

Our youngest, Jace.

Jace riding Missy, all our Grand kids are good riders. The story behind him sitting on the camo shirt...he wanted to cover the girls' pink saddle!!

Isabella loves her Grandma's rectangle gun, just hasn't summoned the courage to touch it off yet!

Lawsyn is content for now with toting her brothers (Steele) game around.

And Cameron...well, we gotta wait a while on her but in the mean time she's eatin' good!!

Teachin em ' right!!!! clap1 thumb1
Good times Danny.... looks like you have it well under control and life pretty well figured out. 8)
Thanks Worm & Cannon! Sometimes I think I have it figured out Cannon but I'm having fun so that's what matters! banana time
That's awesome right there. thumb1
Great to see lil ones enjoying the outdoors with family. Love eating fresh fish and wild game with the kids when they can see where its coming from.
Your so right about parents/grandparents enjoying these little outings as much as the kids.
The camo shirt over the pink saddle... rofl
Thanks guys! Armed, Jace told his Grandma he didn't want his picture taken on that pink saddle, so...!
Fried channel cat, shooting 45 & spending time with family. That's just the all around 'Merican dream. You know how to live!
Blicero that's just a hard life to beat isn't it?!
For sure. Those little Sparkies are on the path to good, wholesome, self sufficient American idyllic living.
Isabella looks plenty comfortable with an SKS in hand too, even if it's a good foot taller than her. I love it.
Lawsyn looks a wee bit nauseous about having to schlep around squirrel carcass. Teach her how to make squirrel & dumplings!
Awesome, just pure plain awesome.
