Kailee and Addisen got their first shooting lessons this trip. It has been promised for a while and they have been practicing with their Nerf double barrel shot gun. Well, the squirrels were running rampant so Mike decided it was time to teach. They didn't get to shoot a full on shot gun, but settled for a little .22. The same little gun that Mike learned to shoot with. Mike taught them all the basics of a great squirrel hunt.
1. Load your bullets:
2. Smile pretty for Mom:
3. Look for your targets...
4. Protective ear gear and a steady hand from Dad.
5. Voila! 7 shots in your target!!
I am pretty sure she was more worried about decorating the target then shooting it!
And then it was the Homeboy's turn:
She did have protective ears... they were the in your ear kind b/c she wouldn't wear the big ones. And she didn't make her target. She was more worried about the shells flying out the side of the gun onto the ground. "The bullets are falling out!Daddy, we need to clean those up!!"
When the lessons were complete, the real squirrel hunt began. Dad got to play with his new toy.
