Rifleman

Stephen and Caleb took another Appleseed (see earlier posts) course this weekend. Guess who made rifleman? My honey! I am so very proud of him. He is already working at the Appleseed next weekend. Caleb did a great job too. He was able to shoot without using a rest for the rifle this time and he made marksman. I love the after glow when he gets home. He is full of chatter and so proud to have been with Papa all weekend.

Caleb earned a flag for his wall :)

Next step for Stephen - Instructing
