Crazy Kait!

Check out the power of this great gun! It was a favorite for the night! Keep scrolling down for the whole story of our night out shooting!

On The Drive Out!

Kaitlin and I went with a big group of great people from my singles branch out shooting last night and had the greatest time! We went a little picture crazy and took some really great pictures before we even started shooting. This is a picture we took before we even met up with everyone. We pulled over on the side of the road in Nampa and wanted to take pictures with the cows but they all ran away from us as soon as we started to walk in their direction. I just love how the fence is in focus but everything else isn't.
The sun was perfect so we took advantage and Kait looked so good! I love this one!

This is Dan...Is that not so cool looking! Like I said the sun was perfect so the pictures below are all just us messing around.

Shooting like a Pro!

Like I said, Kaitlin and I went out shooting with some people from my branch and had a great time! We were a little afraid of the guns to begin with especially after our introduction to them where we were reminded that guns were made to kill people and were told all the safety stuff. Kaitlin and I had never even held a gun though so yea, it was a little intimidating! In the end though I think Kaitlin and I were surprised at how much we loved shooting! It's something we for sure want to go out and do again and again and again! Anyway, check out the great pictures below of some of the people from the branch and of course Kaitlin and I.

Kaitlin getting her last minute instructions. She is using the same gun that she shot in the video. It is like a real cowboy looking gun...it was fantastic!
She looks like she is ready to hold up a convenience store especially with the purse strap right there. Ha, ha, ha!

No, we don't have our eyes closed...we were aiming!

I shot a total of 3 different guns...this was the first one I shot and I actually wasn't terrible!

Okay, this one wins for best picture of the night! Doesn't this just look like it should be a movie poster or something!?!

Bunny Bopping and Bubble Blowing

Don't be fooled by the title of this entry. I know it sounds like every pre-schoolers dream but it is not as nice and sweet as you would think. Let me explain... after we were done shooting my good friend Ryan and his buddies asked us to go bunny bopping. I was like, "What!" I had no idea what it was and I was informed that I could not live in Idaho and not go bunny bopping. Bunny bopping is also known as spotlighting. It is when you spotlight a bunny and shoot it. Kaitlin and I weren't so sure about it but after a little while Ryan successfully persuaded us to go.

Before we started Ryan pulled out the bubble gum and decided that we all needed to have a bubble blowing contest. As most of you know, I am not the biggest fan of gum. So I became the contest judge and picture taker. After the contest was over we all loaded into the car and took off. We shot one bunny (it was actually really exciting) and a half a mouse (his little leg got shot off). We also saw 2 badgers, Kaitlin saw her first shooting star and most everyone herd coyotes! We would have shot more bunnies but we didn't see anymore until we were driving home...we saw 4 or 5 while we were driving back! It was so funny! All in all it was a great night!

This is the boys all running to find the mouse after he was shot. Sorry the pictures aren't better...it was really dark and I couldn't see what I was taking pictures of. So, as far as I could tell...Ryan was the winner of the contest.
