Hunter in Training

Golf Season at the Bailey house has ended and the Hunting Season is upon us!  Although Charlie has asked Bubba to take him to play golf, in the best interest of those at the golf course, he has not been able to play yet.  But getting ready for turkey and deer and all that other outside “stuff” that boys do… guess who has been tagging along!  Bubba’s little buddy!

As you can tell,  Charlie dresses himself for these wood outings!  He knows exactly what Bubba means when he is told they are going on a “trip”.  And once Charlie hears of the “trip”, you better have the car ready to go because this is a young child of NO
patience! 

Today, Bubba and Charlie invited all the girls on their trip to the woods!  While Wylie was thrilled, Bess and I really would rather have had a nap but we were NOT going to be the party poopers for the Family Fun Trip to Lockhart!

After accidentally stirring up a hornet’s nest, Charlie was deemed King of the Truck Bed and assisted Bubba in the unloading of a massive amount of planting seeds.

Charlie thought dear ol’  dad was doing a lovely job so he gave his dad a thumbs up!  However, he is a little confused on which finger to use for the thumbs up!   

After unloading, we all loaded up and headed into the wilderness! 

Down the bumpy fields we traveled to the deer cameras to check out all the action that had been going on in the fields! 

At one particular stop, Charlie became so excited as we pulled up and began yelling “I go  play in the dirt!”  Last time he rolled in the dirt.  Thankfully he left that adventure out of our fun today!  Today, he just wanted to pee-pee in the dirt!  Works for me!

Trying her best to enjoy the adventure but not get dirty, was dear little sister Wylie!  She was just so happy to be included in the boy stuff today!

Just for the giggle, this was Wylie today.  All decked out in her Dora band-aid which SHE asked to be placed on her head.  Not because she had a reason, but because she felt she needed it!  Again, whatever keeps a smile on their faces!

Yet again we loaded back up to check another camera!  This time we had a driver in training! 

And boy did he think driving Daddy Bubba’s truck  was extra cool!  

All the while, in the backseat of our Crowded Truck o’ Bailey Fun there sat a precious little girl who just wanted to take a nap! 

Bless her bones!  Every time she would close her eyes, her overly excited brother would poke her eyes and tell her to wake up!  

One day soon, my two favorite boys will be heading into the woods together  in search of turkeys and deer.  While Charlie wishes it would be this season, his loud calling of “Turkey, where are you?!” seems to be prohibiting his hunting journeys for this season!
