Hunting Birds

Well - we had quite the exciting weekend! Another swimming lesson, and we successfully dunked Jordan, will post video hopefully tonight. Then we had a baby food making party with our friends Meghan and Diego - we made SO much baby food - peaches, nectarines, plums, green beans, broccoli, zucchini, and carrots.

On Sunday, the 4 Hutchins went out to hunt some birds! It was a beautiful day, so we headed up to Rocky Top. BJ and Cobey set off up the road ahead of Jordan and I, and we sauntered along behind them, looking at ferns, and different kinds of trees, and rocks... Jordan totally enjoyed herself. We decided she isn't the best hunter yet - since she likes to make lots of noise, grunting, squealing, and down right yelling, especially at Cobey, while we walk along.

BJ did manage to shoot 2 ruffed grouse - but Cobey did not perform his function well at all... He found the bird, sniffed at it, picked it up for a minute, then spit it out and tried to go on about his merry way - much to our chagrin... That puppy had better earn his keep!!!! Oh well - maybe better luck next time. In any case, the grouse certainly tasted good for dinner!

Here's a couple of pictures - the big pink sweater kinda defeats the purpose of the baby camo. :)
