Monster Buck Classic

We took Buddy to the Monster Buck Classic in Topeka last weekend. It is a collection of booths all related to deer hunting. Daddy doesn't really deer hunt anymore, but it was still fun to see all the hunting stuff. Grandma and Grandpa Blackie Sue (Daddy's parents, that's what Buddy calls them because of their horse) watched the twins for us.

We saw the rattlesnake guy. He was crazy. Usually those snake handlers hold them so there is no way the snake could get turned around to bite them. This guy wasn't worried at all! This snake is looking at me like I could be lunch!

Uncle Mike (Daddy's uncle) got Buddy this hat before he was born (it says Big Buck Hunter)! He found it at a gas station, and Buddy wears it all the time. It was definitely appropriate for this event!

Our favorite weather man, Drew Switzer, was there. We made a point to find him because Buddy likes watching him on tv. He was at a t-shirt booth and was having a contest to win a free shirt. He was asking what state the shirt company was from. Thanks to a lady at another booth (who knew where they were from), we won this shirt for Buddy. It says "I'm not scared of monsters!" in reference to monster bucks!

Buddy also got a chance to shoot ducks on a video game and shoot a target with an air rifle. It was a fun evening and reminded us of life before the twins came along!
