My name is Sophia I’m 2 months away from turning 13.I took up hunting about 2 years ago and I’m extremely happy that I did know I wonder why I didn’t take it up sooner,I guess that I always thought the minute I really felt like I belong here we would move or something would happen.But I couldn’t help myself I told my dad that I would like to go hunting I was 9 then I was so excited but then tragedy struck my grandpa passed away so hunting and everything thing else got put on the back burner I was about 10 1/2 when i decided to give hunting another go and man I’m glad I did.Now I want to share a little about the people who helped shape my future.

a picture from are elk hunt

First of I want to tell you guys about my dad his name is Randy he is a pastor as you can tell from this picture we have fun hanging out with each other he didn’t take up hunting till I did so we get to learn together I think correction I know we can sit and talk for hours and not get mad at each other.I wish everyone could have the same connection with there dad like we do the world would be a better place.

This is my little sister Gloria she’s 5 and she loves to play school she is going to ether be a teacher or a prison guard she honestly is something else.She is going to be a very outspoken person.We may but heads a lot but we still love each other I guess that’s the sibling bond.

This is my mom her name is Delia she’s a school teacher.I’m not sure how she still gets people to trusts her just the other day she convinced my class that if they went to mcDonalds at 6pm there food would be half off and hat really gets me is they believed her I mean they have been around her for their whole life and they still trust her I mean who is crazy enough to trust someone who plays pranks on them since they were little.As you can see we have a very complex relationship but we love eachother I guess that is all that matters

Now I get to talk my grandma and grandpa Debbie and Roger my dads parents. My grandpa was my best friend he helped me get into a lot of trouble from finding ways around the one soda a day to getting me ice cream 3 times a week.We always enjoyed spending time together I guess that’s where me and dad got are relationship.After my grandpa died me and my grandma got a lot closer.I try to spend the night with her at least once a week.And that’s my family.
