Jon & Kate Plus Eight Minus Six and Jon

Awoke the other morning to see a mother deer and her twin fawns frolicking in the backyard. They were fun to watch, as the fawns were carefree running and jumping, twisting and turning. Obviously they're still too young to be concerned about danger; that's what mom is for.

We've only seen them once so far BUT they've been frequent visitors for sure. They have already worn out their welcome in my book - sssssshoe, scram go away! Here is a list of the plants I've noticed that they've alerady helped themselves to: a good portion of some of our pumpkin plants, the tops off some sedium, a couple comfrey plants, hostas, raspberries and even bold enough to venture up into the yard to eat the tops off of the broccoli. Of course since they're browsers they do a little damage here and a little damage there, UUGH!
