One of the best parts of a hunt is sharing the excitement of success. When it's with dad, it's even better 💙 #alwaysdaddysgirl
Florida 🦃 success! I snuck up on a group of 3 toms and about 7 hens...I crawled for a good 50 yards each time the wind blew before taking a 45 yard shot at this tom! #28weekspregnant .

Beach day...yes, please 🏖🌞
Skiing into my 3rd trimester✌🏼 . Happy Sunday, friends!
