Family Fun






Alyson and Rachel came to spend the day with Joey today. Sophie and Jay stopped by to visit and get a little wet. Slip 'n' Slides and water sprinklers are always a good time!
Jay and Sophie missed the coolest part though. Around 4:30 in the afternoon, we had visitors of a different sort. A mama deer brought her two spotted fawns through our yard. The doe jumped our neighbor's fence, but the babies were too small to clear it. After losing their mom and with us (Joey, Alyson, Rachel, and me) scaring them, the fawns raced back to the safety of the tree line behind our house. Several minutes later mama reappeared to search for her young. Apparently they had a safety plan because we soon watched the deer family reunite! I had been wondering about the deer poop I have been cleaning up along with Sammy's. Mystery solved!
