Hunting Season
Let me tell the world how much I LOVE hunting season.... If it weren't my husbands favorite thing to do in this whole wide world, and if it didn't help us (in a good season) with our budget, I would just about throw a tantrum!!! I don't know how my mom did it for all of those years. And at least she only had one basic season. Nowadays, I hardly get a weekend to enjoy my family without the pressure of preparing for or engaging in hunting. And it's not cheap!!
I think Sara and I will have a SPA season (which will take up the same amount of time and energy as hunting does) when I am out of school and we will have to enjoy it just as often. And when we do have another kid (hopefully a boy) then daddy will have to be in charge and can have a little buddy to tote around.
GRRRRRRRR.....
I do feel a little better getting this off my chest. Back to domesticated bliss;)))

I thank God every Saturday that I married the only non-hunting-obsessed Hall boy in the family! I think those other brothers blame me, but Donnie really doesn't like hunting. He'd rather sleep in on Saturdays than anything else in the whole world. I could never put up with what you and Becky do. We need a dad around here on Saturdays! We've long finished college, but still don't have extra money to throw at a hobby like that. Living on one income for all these years has given us both practical reasons to choose inexpensive hobbies. :-) (Or, once we had kids in sports and other activities, they take all our extra money!) I think the SPA idea is great, too!
I spent most of my Saturday cleaning up Abby's room. We boxed up several sets of toys to put in the attic. I even got her to put lots of stuffed animals in a bag for Goodwill. Joy! We can see the floor of her room again.
Donnie, bless his heart, helped the kids clean the living room and dining room, and then cleaned the kitchen by himself. I have him well-trained. :-) He's learned that a happy mom/wife makes our whole family better.
