Well, Brent turned 32 years old and probley had one of the most exciting birthdays ever!!!As all of you know Brent is a outdoors kind of guy!He hunts for two months straight!!!(He might argue with that!!!)But his love is in the woods!!!!I got a phone call around 6:30 and he was pretty excited.He had went to a spot where he had been seeing a lot of bear activity.He climbed in a tree and sat for about a half hour and waited to see if he could see anything.Then sure enough he saw two bears and they were headed right under the tree he was in!So he had a perfect shot!He shot it right in the lungs and chest with the first shot.The bear dropped and didn't get back up!Brent then put in a few more shots just to make sure.That is when I got the phone call about the bear.Then he called his dad to help him get it out of the woods.He stayed in the tree until his dad got there just to make sure the bear was dead.The bear is pretty big, he is around 300 pounds.(Bears around here are usally 150 to 200 pounds)With gutting the bear and getting it in the truck it took almost two hours.They had a hard time getting the bear in the truck...I'm sure it was pretty funny!!
The pictures are really bloody so if your stomach is weak you should not look at them.They look like they had a blood bath ,very gross!!!!And NO I will not eat the meat ...gross.It can be good... I guess it depends on their diet,if they eat berries and apples it's sweet and if they eat fish ....not good!!!But we will get him butchered and Brent said he is going to eat it.We eat all the animals he hunts!-I will post more picture later when he is a little more cleaned up.
It was so funny the boys had such different reactions to the bear .Drew was a little scare of it and Hunter was all over it.He thought it was so cool!I think Hunter is going to live up to his name!!!
Brent and his dad did a great job.What a mess they were!!!

Happy Birthday Brent! Good job with the bear. danae are you going to make a bear skinned rug out of it?
Wow!
That is awesome! Congrats Brent! Justin has ALWAYS wanted to learn how to hunt, you should take him sometime.
what a great Birthday for him! I used to come home as a kid during hunting season to deer hanging in the garage - such a great thought! 300 lbs is a huge bear to move around! I am sure they were tuckered out after all that!
Congrats on the bear.
Em
I think you should make a dress out of it Danae...and maybe a matching hat! :)
What a birthday gift for Brent...I'm sure there wasn't anything else he would have enjoyed receving quite as much. You can tell he's happy in those photos. :) I love that.
I think that was a little b-day gift for Brent from God, God so knows our hearts and what blesses us. :)
Thank you Jess!!! That is what I was totally thinking!!!Maybe even a little bear claw jewery!!I would be such a fashion trend setter!!!
Oh ,and I was wrong on the bear's weight he is a 400 pound bear.He is going in the record book for being one of the largest bears in Wa.I think that is pretty cool for Brent!!So,yes we are so getting him made into a bear rug!!We are putting him on the wall!
Happy Bday Brent! That is a mess! Way to catch such a huge bear! THats great it was Brent on for his bday!
