This little piggy ...

This little piggy went to the market

This little piggy stayed home

This little piggy had roast beef

This little piggy had none...

and THIS little piggy got shot by Katie... and died.

OK, that was probably a gruesome way to ruin a perfectly cute nursery rhyme involving children's toes ....  but last weekend Katie & her dad went hunting for a hog.  Hogs are BAD here in Texas.  They are all over the place!  While at our property last weekend, they did go hunting, and Katie managed to shoot one!  Although, her scope was off a big (it was adjusted for her to see far away, and the hog was right in front of her, so all she saw was a big blur of a pig), she did still managed to shoot it behind the ribs, but it didn't kill it right away.  Mike had to shoot the final shot otherwise it would've ran off and died.

This is 170 pounds of pure pig...
She said it was pretty gross while her dad & his friend were skinning it, etc.  Mike said it looked like she would've passed out.  ::giggling::

She said she's ready for a deer now.  :)
