Skateboarding

Derrik has been released from treatment on his knee. He is back to skateboarding and loving it. It was a long year, but with good results.

Scrapbooking

Kay, Margaret Ann and I joined my friend (and Creative Memories consultant) Kari at the Fredericksburg Expo Center for a scrapbooking event. There were over 900 scrapbookers there. Margaret Ann is taping up an injury from her day of intensive cropping.

Corbin's Deer

The last weekend before bow season starts, the state holds a youth hunt. Brandy & Corbin both went. Corbin got this deer with his very first shot of his very first ever hunting trip. He also got a smaller buck.

Erika's Going Away Party

From above, it doesn't look like so many guests. There were over 75 people here.

This is our dear Erika.

Target Practice

Bow season starts in October, so it's time to start doing some target practice. This is where you'll find my guys pretty much every evening.
