Surgery and guns

Yesterday, Olivia comes up the stairs, crying that her nose hurts. Her finger is jammed up it so I tell her to get her finger out! In fact there is not just a finger but a pencil eraser! I got the flashlight and a tiny pair of tweezers and performed surgery in the living room. I got it out! She's the only one of my kids that has shoved something up their nose. And Ethan has been to the ER ALOT!

Tonight we had some friends over for a fun evening of shooting guns and dinner. Yes, I live in the Wild West. Our friends, Jason and Amanda, got 2 new guns and of course JaDee has several. We went up the canyon by our house and set up targets, put our kids in ear plugs and fired 150 rounds between the 3 pistols and probably another 100in the 22. I know, I know, which trailer is ours...but we really did have fun. It turns out I am a pretty decent shot. For someone who's idea of the outdoors was golf or soccer I can shoot that glock quite well! Ethan shot the .22 and likes to rapid fire "Rambo" style at the targets we had set up in the sage brush. DOnt' worry, Ethan is well versed in gun safety. I know, Ehtan of all my kids with a gun! but he is very responsible and made sure the little girls had their ears plugged when their head phones off. He also told me all about how we never touch the blue gun case without mom or dad. He asked Jason every time he wanted to shoot the .22 too. So no, we are not that psycho...
