You better believe it goes by fast

[Coach]

Didn't want to hijack the other youth javi hunt thread, but it got me looking at old pictures since I'm taking out my youngest and he's going to be 16 this weekend.

 

Seems like yesterday I took my oldest son, Matt on his first javi hunt (technically mine, he was 5, lol).

 

 

Finally at 10 he gets his own tag...

 

Nick's first. Gotta love Josh with his stuffed tiger.

 

Not too much longer the two oldest double up...

 

Josh, my youngest gets his first at 10.

 

About a zillion pigs later, Matt and I with our first archery double in 2016

 

 

You parents with younger kids, I'm sure you hear it all the time, but it's absolutely true - it goes by soooo fast. Cherish every moment of it.

Watching the boys and your hunts on here over the yrs, I didnt even recognize them last yr when we ran into you guys.

Doing it right my friend. Good luck this weekend.

As I have posted elsewhere, I can relate to this, especially the first picture. Next month, my soon-to-be 5 year old will be heading out with me and a couple buddies for a weekend of Javelina hunting.

I too would wax poetic about my little ones growing up but every time I turn around there is another one in diapers.

 

My oldest is 25 and my youngest is due in April.

 

Seriously.

That 1st pic is cool ( him with the rifle)

we got 3 2 girls and a boy

youngest is 17 after she graduates she is planning on going into the navy ( shes been wanting to do that since she was 12 like her grandpa)

I am going to be totally lost when she out of the house. but on the bright side when she is in the military I probably get to have her jeep for a while

Seriously.

yeah but on the bright side you get 18 more years of fun and torture what can be better than that

I'd love to have a couple more little ones around but my wife wouldn't agree

Dude. Go get that shoot cut on.

[1uglydude]

Very cool. I love the Rem. 600 in the pic of Matt's first.

 

For whatever reason the wife and I were only blessed with two kids. We both wanted five or more when we started out. She says we are done trying now. The oldest is 10 and we go on her first pig hunt this weekend. Blew my mind when I realized the other day that she's only seven years away from graduating high school.
