Learning to be a true Idahoan!!!!

Apparently learning to be a true Idahoan means getting out in the country and shooting!!! Man I love Idaho!!!! Nathan, myself and a couple of people from the squadron went shooting one Saturday morning!!! We had a blast! I got to shoot everything from a hand gun to a HUGE shotgun!!! We shot clay pigeons... well I tried, Nathan was actually really good!!! I was the best at hitting little magnetic target the guys put on the washer with the little .22!!! It was a great day!!!

Before we even got started the adventure began!!! I found a deer carcass... well actually skeleton!!! I thought it was pretty cool!!!

Nathan teaching me how to properly hold and shoot the gun!!! I have to say he was pretty impressed with me!!!

The Gang!!! From L-R Goat, Nathan, Cooter, Bat and Pipper kneeling!!!

Nathan and I with the demolished washer that we found!!! I think that washer had seen better days!!!

Hooray!!! I hit it right on the bullseye!!! With Cooters little .22!!! Man I like this shooting thing!!!

All in all another good experience in the mighty state of Idaho!!!! Post more soon!!!

XOXOXO the Jenkins!!!

The Pumpkin Patch!

Since October is the month of pumpkins it only seems fitting that I take my kids to the pumkin patch!!! They had a blast climbing on the hay tower and playing in the grain pits. But I think that their favorite part was picking out their very own pumpkin!!!
PLaying in the Grain pit!!!

It's pretty high up here on the top of the haybale tower!

I'm king of the tower!!!

Some of the boys that rode in my car. Aiden and I

Damien and I... adn yes it was FREEZING that day!!!!

We also took a hay ride around the property!!! Luckily that day some planes were flying over and I got a shot to look pretty cool with my kids because I knew all kinds of stuff about those planes!! the boys thought that I was especially cool!!!

Well that's all for now, I'll keep posting!
Love you guys!!!

Tiger-Bolt Ladies Night Out!!

Well since our guys, the Tigers, and the other 15E squadron guys, the T-Bolts, are both gone the ladies decided we should have a TigerBolt Ladies Night Out!!! Well seeing as we live in Mountain Home, ID... there isn't a whole lot to do! So we went to the local watering hole and hung out for a while. It was really great to meet the wives in the other squadron.
This is Michelle and I, her husband was one of Nathan's instructors while he was in Georgia doing T-6's! She is in the T-Bolts!
Katie and Heather both are in the Tigers!
This is also another Katie that is in the Tigers and Beth's husband is in the T-Bolts! As you can see we had a decent turn out that night... there were more earlier but we didn't think to take a picture then!

Well there'll be more later!
Love you guys!
