Two posts in less than an hour!!! SHOCK! lol
So after I posted the last entry, I heard some noises outside and looked out the window. Much to my surprise, I see a guy out there with a gun! I grabbed my camera to get a picture, but never could. I saw him go over to talk to our neighbor, so I went over there to see what was going on. There was a deer with a broken leg and they called animal control, who came over to take care of it. He tranquilized it and took it away. Soon after, this is what showed up in their back yard:
Apparently it was around her this morning, before they realized she had a broken leg. I was wishing I had my other lens for the camera, but I cropped it and it looks OK. We always have a bunch of deer around here, but it's not often I've see such a big one. (And all the deer in TX look smaller than the ones in Nebraska.)
Anyway, that was my excitement for the afternoon!! lol

Wow, where has the time gone!
It's been awhile since I've updated my blog! We had a visit from my parents (and I was bad and didn't take any pictures), spent time with the girls and Todd and I took them to "The Oasis" in Austin while they were here. It was lots of fun and their visits always seem to go so quickly.
The current project we're working on is adding gates to the backyard so we can park the trailer there. Currently it's sitting in the driveway, and we want to move it. Unfortunately, our city has "ordinances" where trailers can be parked and the backyard is really the only place we can park it besides the driveway. Originally we wanted to park it next to the garage, but it can't be within 6 feet of our property line.
Todd stopped at Home Depot on his way home from work on Saturday and got most of it set up. This is what it looks like right now:
The chairs are around the concrete so that the deer don't bother it. We still need to cut the post down to the right size and shorten the chain link, then we can move the trailer there! It will be nice to get it out of the driveway!
Other than that, no major projects going on. I'm still going through all the jewelry we brought home from IL. We have a lot of nice costume jewelry, unfortunately most of it is silver and all mine is gold, so I can't really wear it. I've been searching the internet looking to see if I can find values, but haven't had much luck.
Today is Veteran's Day, so please take the time to thank a veteran! We're looking forward to our Son-In-Law to come home from Iraq in a couple of months. They are going to come see us in January, so that will be nice. I'm hoping we can get everyone together for a family picture while they are here.
