Having someone to love is FAMILY. Having somewhere to go is HOME. Having both is a BLESSING.
We ARE SO BLESSED!

Let's Talk Turkey!

Early this morning, Daryl dragged himself out of bed and hunted in less than desireable conditions in the hopes of successfully bagging his first turkey ever. He layed on the soggy ground and belly crawled into position. What may seem to some as extreme effort paid off and Daryl was excited to bring this "guy" home for DINNER!
We didn't have a scales to weigh him on here but the guestimate is that this big guy is weighing in around 22 pounds!

The right spur was 15/16 of an inch and the left spur was broken but still measured at 3/4 of an inch!


He sported a 9 inch beard.


So happy for you, Daryl! Though sometimes even your mother rolls her eyes at what seems to be an all consuming passion, your hunting efforts are most times quite successful. I love your pride in providing meat for your family and I know that God can even use some such gift as this!

CONGRATULATIONS!!
