The day I aways prayed for - but never drempt would come true!

I know that you can not tell who these pictures are of - and you probably would not believe it if you could see the face - It is LEXY climbing into HER deer stand!!!  For the first 6 years of our marriage I have asked her to hunt every year... this year I decided to give up and just be happy that she sits out there with me - but one day on our big trip out west she told me that she wanted to actually hunt this year!  I don't know what inspired this - and I didn't ask!  As soon as we pulled back into Illinois we drove to Gander Mountain and bought her a "stylish" (in her words) set of camo.  As soon as her bow hit 41 pounds she was raring to go... and today was her first day on her own.  A few doe came in close to her stand but never came down the ridge line.  It was a great day with many more to come!
