The Slaughter

How's that for a catchy title? hehe.
My brother Aaron was blessed to get not one, but TWO deer last Saturday, so we went over there last night to help them butcher them and get the meat in the freezer so they could leave for Georgia this morning!














Fabio got in on the skinning. :)

Levi stood by for size comparison. :)







































Here's Aaron hacking off a front leg.



And taste-testing it.



(just kidding.)





Suzy washing.


Mom and I chopping the meat off the bone.
(That is the ergo baby carrier hanging from my waist. Jessica was holding Johann here, but most of the night I chopped while he hung out in the ergo.)
But Jessica didnt just hold Johann all night long - she got in on the action too!








Suzy proudly holding a nice roast.







What a trophy A.J. is holding!

















And now they have a bunch of meat in their freezer! YAY!
I have a TON of stuff to post - I just havent had time and computer access at the same time. ;) Stay tuned!

Oh my. I suppose the title should have given me a clue but I (and my stomach!) was NOT at all prepared for those pictures! Nothing like gagging at the library. :D Still, it looks like you all had fun.

Where does Aaron hunt??
