First Weekend in February Fun 2012

Finally, we got the apple tree trimmed! We have been wanting to get it trimmed since we moved here almost seven years ago... SEVEN YEARS! The poor little thing was in desperate need of trimming, and although we have never trimmed an apple tree before, we did our best. Who knows what will become of it? This is Britt's favorite tree to climb, so hopefully it will come back strong!
And later in the afternoon, Brady did a little "shooting" with his B's. They each took turns shooting the target with his "twenty-two." It was such a beautiful day, it felt like spring for sure! The only fly in the ointment was our little pug, Rosin, who unbeknownst to us, ran away from home. Luckily, a nice pair of older ladies brought her home to us. They found her panting and running down the highway which runs parallel with the freeway, and just took a wild guess that she would be our dog. What a blessing! We learned a good lesson, though - make sure Rosin is in the house before we do any shooting. And the little B's? They are already good shots! They make Big Daddy proud... Truly, he was in his element, helping them. He's a wonderful teacher, and our kids are definitely going to know how to handle a gun properly and how to hit their target. And in today's world? That is a good thing, my friends. A very good thing indeed! (Personally I have no clue how to shoot a gun and no desire to learn, but realistically, I probably SHOULD learn... We'll see!)
