BERNT + MERRILL'S= BERRILLS FAMILY GET TOGETHER!

THIS PAST WEEKEND, JARED AND I WENT CAMPING WITH HIS COUSIN NATE, HIS WIFE, JEN AND THEIR GIRLS, LILY AND MEGAN. WE HAD A GREAT TIME. I WAS A LITTLE LEARY BEFORE WE LEFT ON HOW HALLE WOULD DO BUT WITH THE GIRLS THERE, SHE KEPT BUSY AND WAS GREAT. JARED AND NATE WOULD HUNT EARLY MORNING AND THEN IN THE EVENING AND COME BACK FOR THE MAJORITY OF THE DAY. WHEN THEY CAME IN THERE WAS NOTRE DAME FOOTBALL WATCHING, SNACKING ON SNACKS, FRESHLY COOKED BROWNIES, FOUR-WHEELER RIDES, YOU NAME IT. IT WAS QUITE FUN. JARED AND I EVEN TOOK HALLE INTO SODA FOR A BIT TO PLAY AT THE PARK AND SEE MY OLD HOUSE I LIVED IN AND THEN WE HUNG OUT FOR A BIT AND HAD SOME FUN LITTLE FAM TIME. WE DID HAVE A GREAT TIME WITH THE MERRILL'S AND JEN, I DON'T KNOW IF I AM UP FOR YOUR CHALLENGE, BUT I GUESS I COULD TRY. THE KIDS WERE ALL ON THEIR BEST BEHAVIOR WHICH GAVE THE ADULTS TIME TO HANGOUT AND GET CAUGHT UP WITH EACH OTHER. ALSO, I WAS ABLE TO TAKE HALLE ON A WALK BY THE WATER, AND A FOUR-WHEELER RIDE AND IT WAS GOOD TIME FOR US GIRLS TO HANG-OUT IN THE BEAUTIFUL OUTDOORS. THANKS CHRIS AND MOM FOR LETTING US GO TO YOUR PROPERTY, WE LOVED IT! THANKS MERRILLS FOR MAKING IT SO FUN! WE LOVE YA!

HALLE AND JARED SAYING GOOD-BYE BEFORE THE NIGHT HUNT. JARED WAS SO EXCITED TO HAVE HIS LITTLE CUB THERE!

HERE ARE THE MIGHT HUNTERS. NO ELK YET BUT HOPEFULLY NEXT WEEKEND. THEY HAVE SEEN ALOT JUST HAD NO GOOD SHOTS YET. IT WILL COME IN DUE TIME. HOWEVER, THEY CAN HAVE A GREAT TIME UNTIL THEN!

THIS IS THE BEAUTIFUL PROPERTY WE WENT ON, I LOVE IT.
