Deer Camp at the VandeLunes

You can make any of these pictures bigger just by double clicking on the picture. Chris' brother Brad, his Uncle Ron, Cousin Mitch, My sister Karen's husband (MN) and Twins husband (travis) came for some deer hunting this weekend. Chris wanted to take his hanging buck down from last night to get a picture with the boys' deer. IT was a little stiff and the boys were a little tired thinking they were funny riding the deer.
