For as long as I can remember Christmas on the farm has involved guns. This Christmas is no different. LB even got to shoot his first real gun.
I got to shoot my new revolver (hope you guys aren’t put out by guns. But I think the 2nd Amendment is pretty awesome and important).
Even my dad got in on the fun:
And on a running note, my old High School finally got a real track! I had to go check it out!
All through my HS years we ran around the football field on the grass. The grass was long and thick, green or brown. We dodged holes and made due with it. Going to track meets was a big deal because we actually got to run on a real track! Our times were always way better at meets. And now seeing the new track made me want to be in high school again. Made me want a second chance. It actually made me wish I had track practice…I hope the kids realize how lucky they are to have such an awesome track!
Isn’t it a beaute!?
LB took it for a spin and gave it a thumbs up! Maybe I’ll get to get in a good speed workout before we head back East.
Well, back to enjoying some QT with the fam!!
What a nice track!
ReplyDeleteMy high school didn't even have a track team, let alone a track. Otherwise I would likely have gotten into running much sooner.
That is an awesome track!!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful track!! Oh, and I have an NRA sticker on our truck!
ReplyDeleteMy husband wants a gun room, I do not think he is satisfied with a closet
ReplyDeletebeautiful track! gotta love guns and christmas! ours will definitely include some guns, for sure. :)
ReplyDeleteFirst off LOVE THE SECOND AMENDMENT! Well you already know that about us. :)
ReplyDeleteSecond *whistles* nice track! Cannot wait to hang out on NYE, I'm baking cookies, lots and lots of cookies.. That way we are forced to run out of guilt. Well that and who doesn't love cookies?
Wow-and you didn't Charlie's angel a pose for us?! Dang it!!
ReplyDeleteGet some miles on your HS track for sure!! Merry Christmas!
Oooooo! First of all, LOVE that you're teaching your kiddos safe gun use! Yay! And second - I think I know that track!! :D When they opened it, a bunch of the running clubs came to the dedication - including us here in Tulsa! B-E-A-Utiful track!!
ReplyDeletenice track! my husband confessed last night that I almost got a 12-gauge for Christmas (to shoot squirrels? we live the in city) but ended up with an ipod dock/radio/stereo instead. hmmm. anyway, he's from Michigan, the land of the militia & Ted Nugent, so I think that says it all. fun times!
ReplyDeleteAwesome track!! I love good tracks:) I love going shooting....awesome tradition!
ReplyDeleteShawna-No way!! You went to the didication!? That is awesome! I love running on new tracks, it is kind of like pristine snow, it is just begging you to run on it!
