We have lived in Provo, St. Louis, Travis AFB, Guam, England, Germany, Vacaville (CA), Austin (TX) and now we get to try out life in Florida. Never a dull moment at our crazy house...

Shooting the guns in Florida

The four brothers and Grandpa Ernie were excited for a day out with the guns. Now Josh wants a BB gun.
Above-- Shooting at our "targets": metal people, metal scraps, water bottles and boxes. Keyan's friend let us use his property for our shooting range.





I much preferred my children shooting with THIS weapon: a slingshot

Madi with Molly and Elise. Elise loved hanging out with the "big girls!"

Eliza the sharpshooter


The children loved collecting and trading bullets


Madi coached by Grandpa Ernie

Mara and Rachel


Playing UNO to while away the hours (and hours) at the shooting range


Shooting at clay pigeons (the pigeons were catapulted up into the air). After Lyrad shot surprisingly well, Isaac remarked, "Wow! It's like in To Kill a Mockingbird when Jem had no idea how good a shot his dad was."
