I think one of the best parts of being a parent is watching your child accomplish a "first"...first word, first step, first day of school. You get the picture. Well this weekend Carson had a couple of "firsts" which are important in our family.
First, The HUNT. This weekend was Carson's first bird hunt carrying a gun. He went with Dave, Grandpa Graham, Josie, Cheloque, and Zoe. Look at the mighty hunter
Check out the spoils of his efforts
But he couldn't have done it without a little help from his friends:
By report, this bird was squaking and kicking trying to get out of Josie's clutches.
Also, it was reported that all of the guys had wonderful time and the old ones were impressed with the up-and-coming young, mighty hunter.
Second, today was Carson's first opportunity to pass the sacrament. He did it beautifully and mom made through without crying--matter-of-fact she wasn't even close to tears because he just looked like he should be up there doing what he was doing.
Look at how handsome he is in a white shirt and tie
But the picture Carson really wanted to include on this blog is this one:
Carson felt it was important to portray a realistic picture of him on the blog, since he thinks that in blogworld people only portray the best.

Uncle Dan will be impressed with Carson's choice of headgear for the hunt. Hopefully we will make it up there around Thaksgiving and maybe do a little bird hunting.

We hope so too Nate. We miss you guys.
That's exactly what I was wondering, when Carson got the sweet Mustang hat. Hopefully we'll actually get to hunt this year instead of walking around in a wind storm with no birds flushing anywhere.

Carson bought the hat right before school started. He saw it during the spring, but was able to buy it until the end of August. You should have heard him belly-ache all summer about how it was probably going to be gone when he could finally go get it. boy was I glad that it was still available!
