| Jeff holding his shotgun |
The 2nd day we were in Kingman, we went out for some trap and target shooting. This is only about a mile from my parents' house and we weren't the first people to shoot in this area.
It was nice to get out there and do some target shooting, it's been over 10 years since I shot!
It's been awhile since Jeff has used his shotgun, the trap range he used to go to at Miramar was shutdown.
Unfortunately, the only people who could throw the clay pigeons were my dad and Jeff which means they spent a lot of time throwing the pigeons and NOT shooting (much to Jeff's dismay). All of us girls tried our hardest but just couldn't get the technique right. As a result, I got to shoot quite a bit :) which is why I don't have many pictures...
Ashley took one shot with my .22 pistol while I was holding it (and teaching her all about gun safety) but otherwise she helped Chrissy finish her knit cap. Knitting was our past-time during the week, especially once it got too cold/rainy to go outside. I actually knitted Ashley an entire scarf!
Later that day, Chrissy, Dad, Jeff, and I all went hiking in the Cerbat Foothills, a quick 4 mile hike. Did you notice Ashley wasn't there? Yep, she bailed on us again and went to Aunt Cathy's house to help make tamales.
It was a fun and active day. Good thing too since Wednesday it rained and Thursday/Friday temperatures barely reached the 30's!
