In January, the big boys (which refers to Zack, Evan, and Joel, and often Bill) went hunting on Bill's parents' ranch with some friends. They shot 4 deer most of which we have been eating ever since (yes, Jenni knows 101 ways to cook venison). The younger boys (which refers to Nathan and Luke and Bill wishes him too) got to go camping also, this time on our land, the 76 acres that we bought back in October. They even found fish in the pond (see photo). Eliza is ready to be a bigger girl and get to go on these trips too.
The other major happening for early '08 was that Zack and Jenni took classes and became certified "permaculture designers." Here is a link about permaculture if you care to know more http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permaculture. Basically it is sort of like landscape design with an environmental emphasis and it includes home design and farming/agriculture elements, in both urban and rural settings.
