So he did it! Matt got his first deer. We set out on Sunday for our week long hunting trip. For Matt when he has a new hobby like this, it includes getting every possible accessary to make the trip fun, so therefore, we had to get a trailer, an ATV and a new truck to pull it all. I am not complaining though b/c we had a ton of fun in the new trailer and it made the trip possible with little Sims. Hunting season opened on Tuesday, so Matt and his friend Mike set out early in the morning in confidence that this would be their day. Unfortuantely they came home empty handed. Mike had to go home, but Matt pressed on and hunted his little heart out. Yesterday at camp, Sims and I were saying little prayers constantly that Dad would get a deer. So on the last day at the very last minute, my prayers came true and Matt got his deer. Sims and I had gone into town to have dinner with a friend and we came back to find Matt with his trophy winning deer (not really, but it was cool anyway!). So we immediately packed up camp and headed home. I was so happy that we were going home b/c the Trailer was out of gas and battery, so it would have been a really cold night. I am so happy for Matt and his success of getting a deer! Now we will enjoy good deer meat all winter long.
