My Husband, the Nut- Weekend Review 2 of 3
Saturday. . . Well, I don’t have but one picture of the Cody’s hijinx from Saturday and it was only the beginning. But I do have other pictures from the weekend to share as well.
(Stayed Tuned tomorrow for some hillarious pictures that Cody’s likely to love seeing online. . .not! That’s the price he pays for being a nut.)
Saturday was a busy day for us. Cody and Jack headed out to the deer lease around 5:00 in the morning. Lisa and I met up with them before lunch. Saturday was the fish fry, the meeting, and the stand drawing for the club. After the stand drawing, Cody took us to see the new stand site that he got in the drawing. Well. . . Jack drove the four wheeler with Cody behind him and I followed along in the truck at the 5-10 mile hour pace that Jack was driving.
Cody had Jack drop him off a little ways up the road so that Cody could find the best path for us. Jack then got to drive back to meet us- with his momma’s permission. Of course, as soon as he got off, he asked me if he was driving fast on the deer lease.
Jack got out the football and he roped his mother and me into playing catch with him. Only, his mother decided to grab my camera from on top of the tool box.
Here’s the greatest hijinx of the day. We’re in the middle of a 10,000 acre pine plantation. The area that we were in has trees and overgrown brush on both sides of this narrow dirt road- on a windy day. So, what would any logical person decide to do- Let’s kick the ball as hard as we can. . . right? Well, if you’re a nut.
That’s precisely what my husband, the nut himself, did. Guess what. . . He shanked it. . . right into brush that was at least 15 feet high. It looked at first as though the ball was just going to stay there on top. But, it saved Cody from the ultimate disgrace and fell down to the ground. Of course, it was in the middle of the stickers and thick brush. Cody had to pay his retribution for this hijinx when he retrieved the ball.
And that was the end of the football on the deer lease roads. We went on to see the site and then it was time for Jack to practice shooting the .243. I got this picture before we went to shoot. I love that his mom is there in the background of this shot.
After the meeting/fish fry, Lisa, Jack, and I went into town to get butter before we headed home. Of course, Jack fell asleep during the 30 minute drive there. He and Lisa stayed in the truck while I ran into the store. This was the sight when I walked back to the truck. He didn’t even wake as his mother rolled down the window and handed me the camera. He was worn out.
