Yes, you read that right. We enjoyed a Non-Traditional Thanksgiving this year – Redneck Style.
Since we did the turkey and sides on Tuesday with the whole family, we were thrilled to accept the invitation for Taco Salad and Guns for today!! Robert was working, so he did not join us. Jacob was dropped at the airport earlier this morning on his way to DC.
So the rest of us headed to the Cook Corral for some fun!
I admit, dropping my boy off at the airport, to go with 28 strangers to DC was kind of hard. He was extremely anxious about going with people he has never met, flying without any family, and the whole idea of this trip. His anxiety caused me to almost lose it as I was already anxious about his going too! But I kept things under wraps, dropped him off, and headed to Larue for some food, friends and guns.
You know you are at the Redneck Thanksgiving when you spy this:
You had your pick of rifle or pistol depending on which range was open
There was lots of fun had!! The guys shot skeet, pistols and a few other rifles. Daddies helped the younger ones.
This was Peter’s pistol shooting – 100%
Can you see all the shells on the ground? This is when the younger men arrived (aka teenagers) they sure had some fun! The clays had no chance against these guys!
So much to be thankful for, friends, their family, and then a gorgeous sunset.
It was a good day!
