I shot a gun!

I've been telling Chris for years that I could shoot a deer if I went deer hunting. I've even joked about taking hunter's safety and going along with him. However, I choked last year when it came to signing up for hunters safety because I knew a 12 year old boy that would have been in my class. It wasn't the 12 year old I was nervous about, it was his father...who is married to a coworker of mine. (You know who you are.)

So anyway, in my joking again this year, Chris said that I am not allowed to go deer hunting with him unless I shoot a gun. I am 27 years old and I have never done it. Well...today was the day. I whined all morning about how cold and rainy it was but I did it anyway.

I started with a 22.

Then a 12 gauge.

Then a 30-06.

I murdered a pumpkin.

I'm not bad. (My shot is the one to the right of the target.)

So Chris, can I go deer hunting now?
