Making lemonade out of rotten lemons

My oldest nephew Isaac asked me if I would take him hunting a few weeks ago, I told him that I would LOVE to! I didn't realize at the time of this promise that I would be staying up all night the night before to help out with the youth group lock in at our Church. Needless to say I was really tired when I went to pick Isaac up, but I was also excited, the excitement outweighed the tiredness. When I got to John and Molly's, John had EVERYTHING all laid out bagged up and ready to send us off on our crazy fun adventure. We decided to stay the night at the property because it's about 20 miles from the Mountain where we were going to be hunting. After getting there (to the "property) we realized that after all of Johns careful preparations we had forgotten all of Isaac's hunting gear. I felt REALLY bad about forgetting to make sure we had ALL of his stuff..."Don't worry Aunt Kristi, we'll make lemonade out of rotten lemons!" and we did! Thank goodness for Dads that hunt. We scrounged around and found just enough camo and hunter orange (not the best color on me btw!)to save the day. We had so much fun! We woke up at 4AM and hunted till 4:30 PM. Though he didn't "draw blood" he said he had a great day.
We saw 30+ turkeys, an owl, a bald eagle... and a little doe that ran across the road as we were driving home. We were both exhausted. There's nothing like getting to share something like this that's so special and important to your nephew, with your nephew. I LOVE being an Aunt!!!! Oh, one more funny thing. I found an all blue grass station on the radio while we were driving to the Mountain, I started singing along w/ some of the songs I knew then Isaac and I both started to make up our own words, I asked him if he liked blue grass and he said " Well, I don't think I've ever really heard of blue grass. Is it like green day? I've heard of green day". Blue Grass/Green Day, it was hilarious!
