Anyhow I had a good feeling for them today, I think things were in their favor... I told Mick to call me if the got some down today. About 9 or so my sister called my work and told me that they got 4 down!! Wow, I was so very excited. 4 Elk in one foul shot and they all had their tags filled. At first they could only find 4 of them, after searching all over on the way back to the truck they finally found the 4th one. I was so glad that they don't have to go back up there again. It's so much nicer then everyone gets them all at the same time.
So Mick being the Red Neck guy he can be at times, came home down Eagle Rd. with this look in our truck:
Can you imagine the looks they got with all of those people. Jason said there were people taking pictures with their cell phones. And of course they were pulled over by a sheriff. He congratulated them for the kill but also had to make sure everyone had there licenses and tags.
Amanda and the girls, Darcy and her kids, and my mom all met up at our house for pizza while the guys did the necessary things to take the Elk to Tackett's in Nampa to cut ant wrap it.
I know some of you aren't really into hunting, but you have no clue as to how much this helps out our family. I was raised on Elk, and it is soo much cheaper than going to the grocery store and buying beef. I can't wait to start cooking with it again. Our family ate all of last years Elk about 3 months ago, so we are definately excited. We now have a Pig and Elk to eat I couldn't ask for more at this time.
Thank you God for providing for not just 1 family but 4!!

Yes, I'm so thankful they all got one, on opening day!
I laugh thinking about what everyone thought as they drove by. To me it seems so "normal". ;o)
Can you send the pictures Mick took. Thanks.
Oh, I bet they did get some looks ;) Congrats to the guys!
