Last week Adam bought me a gun...everyone that knows me---what? Yeah-I know! Well, I figured that I should know about them, even though I am not crazy about them, since they are in the house. I told Adam that everyone at work was talking about going to caswells (shooting range) ...to practice. Well, he bought me a gun so that I can learn on my own gun, one that I am using to defend my family with and familiar with. Makes sense-right? Well, we have not gone yet, but still plans are there...
As soon as I got it, I called Stacey (boss and friend) and went over there to show it off... she was pretty excited for me...which made me a little excited too!
Well, Amber (sis in law) signed me up for this woman's outdoor event at Bass Pro Shop. I really did not know what was in store for us, but I thought, what the heck! I enjoy outdoor stuff- I just never get to do it- with my schedule... ya know! Well, I learned how to cook in a dutch oven- we made our desert for the woman's group... we learned the proper way to fly fish... and the funnest of the four events ...........I shot a 9 mil...I shot a gun for the first time- EVER! I did well! Out of 20 rounds, I got 17 on the paper- not sure where the other 3 went! LOL...well, we then went to shoot a compound bow...I made the bulls-eye...with a little practice.
So, I can do it all! I am a girly girl (getting my toes done up) and I can camp, (maybe) hunt and fish...played sports and loves to shop.
When I was younger, my family and I went camping, water ski'g and traveled a little...I think that because of that, I was able to experience a lot...and make it easy for me to adjust to who ever and what ever that is in store for me. The fact that I am learning about this stuff makes me understand my wonderful husband and his play time events. I almost want to get my own compound bow. I think that there is more fun then the gun. However- the bow is something that will have to be later...they are not cheap.
I thank Amber for signing me up! That was the best day in a long time that I had that much fun! I was sooooo tired that I passed out Sat night! I was pretty exhausted Sunday too! The people said that they are doing it again soon at Cabelas. So, I hope to do it again! The other thing that I enjoyed, was being able to spend it with you Amber! HUGS...jes
