People always joked that the spouse would need a shotgun to keep the boys away from our daughter when she got older. Well, now she is about to become a teenager (and has discovered boys) -- and next thing I know the spouse sends me this picture (of him firing a shotgun), taken while he attended a "retreat" with fellow members of the Loyal Order of Water Buffaloes Lodge No. 26 last weekend.
And no, those were not blanks he was shooting.
Despite much trepidation about shooting a gun, the spouse admitted he enjoyed the experience -- and would do it again. (No mention of what -- or whom -- the target would be next time.)
All I can say is prospective suitors, watch out.

I said "GET OFF MY LAWN!"
Perhaps J-Three-O is the one who should be learning how to shoot. That would really keep the boys in line.
Oh great, just what we need, a moody teenager with a gun! ;-) Also am not so sure she wants to keep the boys at bay. :-(
Our daughter is only four, my gun cabinet is already full !!!!
