the buck stops here

As you probably know, hunt'n season is upon us. That's about the extent of what I know about hunting (as those of you who don't speak southern would know it). I am grateful to hunters for helping to control the deer population and thus keeping little Bambi from meeting mine or anyone else's windshield. You are skilled in safety and for that I am grateful.

With that said, just consider this a friendly reminder when you aim your rifle and prepare to fire.


This is a deer (with her fauns)...



This is a buck...
and

that poor girl on the left just happened to be standing in the wrong place when this photo was taken.

Don't Shoot!


(Me and my friend Jennifer in 2000, just before the birth of her first son. She doesn't have a blog, and she doesn't read mine, so she'll never know I posted this fabulous picture of her and her deer friend, moi!)

22 coins in my pocket:

Funny, funny. My father in law hunts so we hear a lot about it from now until Christmas or so. Enjoy the season!

You are crackin' my up. Bless your heart. I will keep my hubby away from your blog. He watches the hunting channel at least once a day.

I am cackling now and you are hearing me...'cause we are talking...and I am cackling in your ear.

This is HUH-larious.

Go change Red Head's shadoobie.

And get off the phone.

How in the world would I know that it's hunting season???

Love the picture though! I took a picture of my dad one time that had a window behind him. It totally looked like a halo that you see in those old paintings.

When your hair is cut like that, you look so much like Sarah

How funny!

I hate hunting season but I do agree someone has to control the deer population.

Cute post!

What a riot!!! DQ wants to know why you have antlers? That is the problem with having kids looking over my shoulder as I lurk.

I love the new picture of you and Red Head.

THAT is so funny!!

Heather said...

Hilarious. PB is hunting as we speak and he hates it when people ask him if he caught anything. He tells them he's not out to "catch" the elk, but to shoot them.

Lorie said...

I have a friend that would LOVE this! I am going to have to email her the link!!
