Rugged Side!

Ever since I was little I have enjoyed being a tom-boy. A tom-boy that loves dresses, but a tom-boy none the less. What I mean by this is, I like to be a girl and be feminine, but I like to do the things that boys do. Sometimes they are just more fun. When I was a kid I used to climb trees and play on the monkey bars and catch bugs and play in the dirt all in my little purple flowered sundress! hahah!

Now, not much has changed. I still enjoy doing all the things that I used to down to catching bugs, but I still love my dresses more than anything! So where is this going you ask? I will tell you!

My biological father, whom I love very much, took Brandon and me shooting on Saturday! Shooting has been a huge part of my life since I was 2, and I have loved it ever since! There is something about it that is just so much fun to me. I love every kind of shooting from shotgun trap and skeet, long range, short range, rifle, pistol, 22, 308, you name it. I love it all. There are few things that I love more than the smell of gun powder!

When Dad took us up on Saturday my cousin Macey, her husband Curtis, his twin brother Kyle, my other cousin Carson, my uncle Andy, my Grandpa Billings, my Dad, Brandon and I all showed up to have some fun! We did some shotgun shooting, some rifle shooting, and some handgun shooting. It was so much fun! We were up there for 5 hours and it didn't even feel that long! It was the perfect day for it too! Not too hot, not too cold, just enough sunshine and just enough clouds. Brandon and I got fried on our faces though. Hello tomato faces!

It was so much fun! I have missed it so much! Dad promised that he would take us up again soon, and I am so excited for that day! So here is to being a tom-boy and loving things that require you to get a little dirt on your hands!
