Merry Christmas from Critter Cabin!!!!!

Hey everybody !!

 They are are back..
Come and see if they brought some Christmas treats for us!


I just know that they brought some treats, I can smell them with my good nose!


After getting two fires going and cutting several tree limbs we decided to have a bite to eat for lunch! 
Hamburgers on English muffins, with extra fixin's!
Hum, what a combo!


Looks like we are going to have company for lunch too.
Sorry, no corn at this meal!
Might check out the buck that is under the shooting range of cans!!


We had left our game camera out for 6 days. Came back to Critter cabin and it had 1023 pictures on it! Took us awhile to look at all of them.
 Several of the deer must like there pictures taken, as they were on it alot.
This is a nice 4x4. Hope that he hangs around the area in the fall.
I'm thinkin' that his horns will make a nice hat rack!


Christmas Eve dinner on the fire pit! Oh, boy, was it yummy!
Words can't express the taste!
Prawns on the grill over the fire!


Veggies on the pan, next to the fire!


Now this guy was new to us! He seems to think that we are no danger to him!
But little does he know we like to go hunting for deer!


I'm thinking that he will be a nice 3x3 or even a 4x4 this hunting season!


Merry Christmas to all the deer.

May you enjoy all the corn and salt that we put out for you over the months ahead!


Now as Christmas eve rolls along, I am wondering if Santa has enough deer for his sleigh?
Seems like that they are hiding out here with us enjoying the camp fire!


Merry Christmas to all our Critter Cabin followers!
Hope that you had a great Christmas.
 I know that we did.


Looking forward to a blog to end out the 2011 year.
 Maybe with some exciting highlights?
Any ideas?

Cold ~ Cold ~ Fun!


Off we go again to Critter Cabin!
 It sure is cold here at Critter Cabin. It was 34 inside the cabin and who knows how cold outside.
We have lots of burn piles to get burned so today we light off 2 of them. We are still limbing up the trees for fire danger and so we can see under them.



Put up a wire with cans on them so that you can shoot them without stopping to stand them up.
 Now the BBs will fly!


This is one silly girl!
Emma having fun at the fire pit!


Well, the pond up behind the cabin is frozen.
It's not very deep, so it makes for a fun time on the ice.


Smile Emma, you are candid camera!


Pat walking up the road towards the cabin.
We had a nice walk, exploring the property.


Spilt ear is just being a lazy bum!

 

No words needed for this one! Only Austin would think of this!


We had a fun time with the kids at Critter Cabin.
 Funniest part of the weekend was when Emma wanted to know if it was time to go to bed yet.
 It was only 7:00.
She decided to stay up till 7:30.
so as not to be a whoss!
Seems like it's later than normal time here at Critter Cabin in the evening hours!

Be sure to stay tuned, our Christmas blog is comimg soon!

Blog Long over Due!!!

Long Over Due!

Here we at Critter Cabin in October for the last weekend of deer hunting. Kristy, Jeff, Zachery, Dylan, Austin, Pat and I were all there for the weekend. We started off the weekend with a hot dog lunch. Lots of differnet types of dogs to choose from, they were all yummy!


The evening brought a nice camp fire, and what goes with a campfire??
Ghost stories from Papa!
 He got us all going with scary thoughts!



Later after the stories were over, I slipped away and got a sheet to put over my head and headed out to the campfire.
With, NO holes in the sheet, I had a really hard time getting around in the dark.
Austin saw me and asked " What are you doing Grandma?"
So much for being a scary ghost!


The boys and there guns!
Zachery gets his shots off!


Austin shoots his shots next!


Dylan tries to be like the big boys!
He will soon be able to hold the gun like them.


Guess that you are never to old for the BB gun!
Papa, those BBs are for the boys!


Kristy in her hunting wear!
Her and I had a great time hunting up there.
So proud of her in losing her 40 pounds!


I save this picture for last!
Words can't express on how much we loved Reba. She went everywhere with us.
 She is now gone to Dog Heaven!
She will be missed always!



I will try and do my best to keep up on my blogs.
Please feel free to post on them.

Keep in touch for one coming soon!!
