Austin V

We have two students named 'Austin' in Room 8... so I designate them as Austin V and Austin J. This is Austin V.

Austin shared his bag, starting off with some antlers. He told us he likes to hunt, actually going hunting with his grandpa on a four-wheeler. Unfortunately, they didn't get anything. These antlers are from his grandpa on a previous trip. Maybe next time, Austin! Austin told us he couldn't actually hunt until he was 12 years old.

Austin V also likes to wrestle. He just started year before last, but he loves it. Look at the medal he won!
Austin V shared some pictures of his family. I particularly liked the one of his grandma sitting in 'HER CHAIR'. He said that's what she calls it and... well, his grandpa just has to sit on the couch!

He brought a spur because he likes to ride horses. He told us he used to have a horse when he was 6 years old, but they had to sell it. He then showed us this bell and said it was for PBR. I asked him what PBR was. He just looked at me like I was a little crazy and said, "PBR!" Well, I had to explain I had no idea what PBR stood for... then he informed us it stood for Professional Bull Racing, which is something he wants to do when he grows up. After riding, he wants to go into the Marines!

These goggles were the last thing Austin V showed us. He said he wished he had taken them hunting!

Maybe he would have had another pair of antlers???
