Hi gunner! It’s mom I finally figured out how to make this work! Hondo is just fine I think he misses you though! your aunt and uncle said hi they love you and can’t wait for you to come over and tell them all about camping! grandma says she misses you already and so do I! We spent all day cleaning out the pool it was so gross your uncle did not fall in this time like I was hoping he would 😂 I hope you’re having the time of your life learn all of the things so you can show me when you get home! Give your horse an extra pet for me! I love you
Ok I told him he pawed me and licked my arm so I think that means he loves you too? Get some sleep my son! Sounds like you’ve got a long week of fun things to do I’ll check in tomorrow and see how your day was!
Hi Gunner! It’s aunt Nikki and uncle Alex and cousin Graham! We missed your help cleaning out the pool yesterday but hopefully it’s ready next time you come over! We are so proud of you and hope you enjoy this incredible experience! Love you!
Oh my gosh gunner! I saw you riding your horse that was awesome! We should definitely go horse back riding when you get home I haven’t gone since I was a teenager! I think that would be fun your sister would probably go too! Anyway I have to go get cat food don’t worry they’re fine they got the bougie wet food last night and snuggy is sleeping in my window as always hondos fine he slept in my bed last night I’ll try to catch your Livestream tomorrow but I’ll be at work til 130am so I’ll leave you a little blog post if I don’t see what you guys are up too. You should be very proud of yourselves! You’re doing amazing things make sure to tell your friends you’re proud of them too you all are doing amazing things!
That’s awesome! Do you want a fun fact about horses? To bad I’m telling you anyway 😂 the first people to ride horse were the Yamnaya they lived where Russia and the Ukraine are now during the bronze age around 3000-2500 years BC anthropologist believe this is around the same time people started to domestic horses which is crazy! Horses have been around for a really really long time! Have fun! I miss you and I love you!

Hi Gunner – It’s Uncle John. Good luck on your upcoming field expedition. I had to spend a night in a tent when I went to camp when I was about your age. However, when I was in the army, I got to spend quite a lot of time in the field and not always in great places.
You’re lucky that you get to go for more than just an overnight. I hope you get a lot out of the experience. We’ll be thinking of you.
Hi Gunner, it’s Aunt Linda. I was so excited to see you in the horse barn. I will be praying and thinking of you this week of your great adventure. You are loved kiddo.❤️
Hi gunner I saw you at archery you did a great job! That looked like so much fun!! Sorry I want on the live stream I was getting ready for work! I love you I’ll talk to you later have fun and be safe
Gunner my guy. I love seeing the pics of you in the barn you look right at home a regular wrangler in the making. Been Praying for you this experience would draw you closer to God as hes trying to get closer to you. I can’t wait to see you guys tomorrow. Im suffering from some FOMO over here. Looks like you guys are having a blast.
Hi Gunner!
My name is Dwayne Huff, and I am one of the people praying for you this week. It looks like you’re having a great time, and hopefully the weather is better up there than it has been down in the Grand Rapids area, where I live. I’m so glad you get to be part of this great experience, and I will be praying that you have a great time and that you have opportunities to grow and to challenge yourself! I’m praying for good weather this weekend as you hit the trail with all of the guys. The trail won’t always be easy, but it will be fun, and you will have a great sense of accomplishment when you complete. Have a great week!
Dwayne
Hi my son! I didn’t catch your live stream today I was sleeping! But I watched it a little bit ago you look right at home with all the horses! I’ll be at work late tonight too I had to get your sister from pipers so I was late for work it’s fine though we miss you! Have fun on your hike and be safe! Can’t wait til you come home… Hondo is fine he spends his time bugging the cats and laying in my bed keeping me company he did so a naughty dog thing and got into the trash! He’s also afraid of his new water bowl it’s a fountain it’s bougie he doesn’t seem to know how to use it though even though snuggy showed him how do when you get home you gotta tell him it’s not scary it’s just bougie water
Hi gunner!! Happy News poot figured out how to use the water bowl I don’t think he’s afraid of it anymore we miss you! I hope you’re having the time of your life I’ll see you in a few days!!
I’m praying you and all the guys have a great time on the trail! It will be challenging at times, but I’m confident that you have what it takes to complete it!
