After 2 seasons of claiming he was 'going hunting' and never bringin' home the bacon, Jon finally bagged himself an elk. The boys were of course wild with excitement over the carcass:
And we had to get all the details of the stalking, the shooting, the dragging it out of a bog, the butchering, why didn't he bring the head or skin home etc. etc.
Mike and I made a book about it at the school book fair (where he had to do an emergency hand scrubbing after I noticed his paws were covered in elk blood:
And Sliver has been "Sweeney Todd, the Demon Butcher of Laurelhurst" all week, hacking those haunches up:

bliss!
it was slightly disturbing to stop by and be faced with elk carcass being hosed down in the driveway LOL
yuk
yeah, makes my stomach turn a bit
I knew you'd be repulsed Lis! It's actually been kind of interesting to see Keener's Meat Market revived in the driveway :-) There were sections of ribs that Fred Flintstone would have loved. I think Jon was going to saw those up tho.
