Here are a few more deer photos...

Bucks in the Backyard

These deer photos were taken by our game camera in our backyard. Thankfully these deer come out at night. Also thankfully they have me (Julie) as their advocate...The only way I kept Chris from sneaking out at night the other evening to shoot one (that's cheating!) is by promising I would scare them off before he could kill one.

Hudson in Bouncy

More Miscellany

I ordered Hudson a zebra costume online for Halloween. Needless to say, it was a bit too large (it said 6 -12 months in size!). I guess I should be glad his head doesn't fit into the zebra head. Don't get your hopes up...I won't be wearing the costume either. I always manage to look ridiculous anytime I dress up for Halloween, as this photo demonstrates so effectively. Well, if you cannot laugh at yourself...

Micellany

Auntie Jen got to attend a teacher's conference in OKC last week and had some quality time with Cowboy, as my mom has nicknamed Hudson. I think it fits him pretty well.

Tiny socks for tiny feet
Laying here and there
On the floor
Behind the door
Picking them up becomes such a chore

They fall away from piles, through basket holes
A precious reminder of that fat little soul, so sweet
Sweet little covers for those fat little feet

And some day, I imagine, I’ll loathe and abhor
All those big, sweaty socks he’ll leave on the floor
But for now I sigh, and smile, and pick up yet another

Of those tiny socks for tiny feet
Laying here and there
On the floor, behind the door
A precious reminder of that soul, so sweet
And his chubby, pink, perfect little feet
