She can bring home the bacon

Here’s Caroline as she prepared to go dove hunting with her daddy after school yesterday.

I guess she couldn’t find the baseball cap with the large bill.

Here’s a little video I took right before she walked out the door.


Going on a dove hunt from Big Mama on Vimeo.

I think she wonders on a daily basis why she has to deal with people who are so dense.

And here she is after a successful hunt.

It appears that dove attempted to trade liberty for security and found neither.

    “I’ve already told you 2 times” HA HA HA I wonder where she gets that spunk? I’m loving the pink boots and floraly type jeans. Just what every hunter needs in her wardrobe!

    funny. Brings back great memories of my dad – bird & deer. Pheasants were my favorite – had the prettiest skins.

    Great daughter/daddy time!

    Here in Minnesota doves are protected. You can’t shoot them. My grandson accidently shot one last summer and was scared he was gonna get caught. lol
    Caroline is so well-rounded. A prima ballerina, a dove hunter, and a fashionista! She just cracks me up!
    Love the cammo with the flowery hat and pants. Not to mention the pink boots.

    Hugs

    This was great! Way to raise a Southern girl – ballet and dove hunting will make for one well rounded woman. Maybe she’ll run for VP one day. :-)

    The pink cowboy boots really make the outfit.

    HA! I love that face she gives you at the end when she holds up her two fingers!

    Ha! Ha! Ha!
    That look and tone, love it!

    That kinda thing always bring to mind Steve from Blues Clues…how much help that fella always needed…and yet when he left the show, it was for college…what’s up with that? (scary that I should know these things!)

    thanks for the smile!

    A girl after my own heart! I am just a fellow blogger and get a hoot out of your hilarious entries. I also have a Caroline and I am hoping that she follows in her mother’s footsteps as a ballerina/huntress. Get R Done! Really, I am not a redneck…

    I like her. I think she would be great with her own reality tv show. I had to watch the video twice it was so good! And please tell her to watch out for that huge cactus at that ranch. She is too precious!

    I may very well be repeating something someone else has said here but I don’t have time to read all these comments because, you know, SURVIVOR is starting in a few minutes.

    But I have to say, it cracks me up the way that poor dove looks like a Halloween dove because of the way she’s holding it up in front of her shirt.

    Of course, maybe adventurous Caroline actually discovered orange-eyed doves!
