How old is she? And how long did she last before she was ready for the hunt to be over? The fact that yall shot limits might mean it was pretty exciting for her and she never got bored. I'm hoping to take my girls one day but really have no expectations that they will want to go.
Dear Lord please bullwhip me for saying this but I agree, Marcstar is in the lead. Please nobody use this as a quote!!!

Good stuff. Won't be long before she's killing all the birds coming in while you sit back and cheer her on. Nothing like daddy-daughter time in the blind. Had some great bonding experiences with mine.

I took my 8 year old this past weekend also. I warned her that we had about a 1 mile walk in...and she still wanted to go. So, I woke her at 3:30 and off we went...
I sat her in a chair blind on the edge of the water, and I sat outside on a marsh seat. She played on my iphone, while I looked for ducks. It was windy and foggy on Sunday morning...so she was ready to go about 8am.
That is a nice picture you took there...awesome! My daughter wouldn't take a picture with the 2 ducks I killed.
I just hope when she's older...those memories will mean as much to her as they do to me.
Sometimes a little self-therapy is good for the soul... getting out to mother nature, finding peace in reading a good book, re-learning how to take care of yourself.

Good deal getting her out there with you. I'm sure its something both of you will always remember.
Shopping with your husband is like hunting with the game warden. Experience is what you get, when you didn't get what you wanted.

Here is my daughter in the chair blind... I wish I could have gotten her to pose with the ducks...but she wouldn't.
