Blog Slacky Slacky

So, I Have Been a Bit of a...
Blog slacker lately! Yesterday was opeing day of deer season and Halloween so I posted some pics of Sean in his hunting costume to celebrate the activities! I can't wait until that boy can go hunting with me for real! Hunting was far from a success. Didn't see a single deer and Halloween seemed to yield much more in the way of food then my hunting expeditions. Got some people coming over to watch football today and watch the big Vikings-Packers game at 415. Looking forward to that game even though I can't get a read on that game at all. I could see a blow out either way or a really close game. Vikings are doing really well this year though- they are 6-1 with their only loss being to the defending champs in their houose. If the Vikings can win today going into their bye, things look pretty good for the Vikings defending their NFC North title. Well, I will try to post a blog each day chronicling my deer season. I have the second week off to hunt so hopefully we can over the funk I have been in and get a deer. Later

Went to Dur's 40th Birthday Party...
And had a really good time and saw some people haven't seen in quite awhile! Looking forward to my draft this afternoon and getting ready for football season. Got some chores to do this morning and then probably shoudl think about food and stuff for the get together. Well, that is it for now.

Bounce House

My Wife Is Slacking So...
I figured I would post some pics of Jessi's end of the summer party! Everyone seemed to enjoy the bounce house and have fun! I got to meet Richard who my wife talks about very often and the company and food were top notch as always. We really aren't a go out to ground Round kind of crowd as we have well discussed so being silly at my house might be the way to go. I ordered my Favre jersey and it should be here before opening day. I am a little bit disappointed that our big guys camp trip had to be canceled but I got to have today off because I don't have to use my vacation days for camp. Didn't accomplish a whole lot today and have my fantasy draft tomorrow which I am looking forward to! Jessi seems happy with her school schedule and I am glad about that because she was highly worried about the whole fiasco! Got to love teenage girls! Couldn't figure them out when I was a teenage boy and don't think I am any closer now that I am 40! LOL

Blog Slacker

OK- I Have to Admit...
I have been a big time blog slacker! It has been a pretty busy last two plus weeks with camp, Friday trips, Cabela's outings and food plots! Summer is still going strong but I can't help looking forward to two of my favorite things- football and hunting! I thought I would post some pics of the dismal deer season last year in hopes of helping to push myself to make sure this year is nothing like it! I am full speed this deer season- from bow hunting to rifle to muzzleloader and I might be exhausted come December but it will be worth it. So, Favre decided to call it quits. OK- he would have made my team better but he also would have been a band-aid for our horrible QB situation and next year, we would have been right back where we started before Favre. I still think the Vikes will have a good year and thanks to my wife, I can watch every game right here in my living room. Camp was great as always and I had one of the best times this year! Well, off to check Facebook and go to bed! Night

Smoking, Bush Hogging and Fires

Today Was an Awesome Day!
I fixed Dad's car first thing this morning then made everyone breakfast then got to smoking some ribs in my new smoker! Brhaun and Nicole and kids a-plenty came over and we smoked some more stuff, cooked corn on the grill and bush hogged my little field out back! Then we had a fire and cooked marshmallows and basically had a great time! Thanks to all who came over for such a good time and I am looking forward to camp in four days for some more fun! Off to bed because I am beat! Night

40th Game Camera

Thought I Would Throw Up Some...
Game Camera pics from my 40th birthday party! Had a great time as always and got some fantastic gifts! Thanks to everyone who came and shared it with me and can't wait to have another party and get together and do it all over again!

40

So, Today Is the Big Day!
Everyone is coming over at 6 and I have tons of stuff to do before people arrive! Brhaun is coming over around 1 so we can start cooking stuff and I have to finish up the porch, clean the laundry room, go to the dump and put the game camera back out to its usual spot! Everything is all set for a great time and I am really looking forward to it! The weather says this drizzle and fog are going to burn off and the rain should hold off, too but it is going to be overcast. That is ok if the rain does truly hold off. Sean, Jessi and I went fishing last night but the brook was extremely high and not very productive. Well, enough procrastinating! Time to get my butt in gear and go get some stuff done! Later!
