Deer!

I'm in a blogging slump...


So here are some pics from my backyard a few weeks ago! We had visitors!


This one was taken inside our house. See how close they were!?! It was a mama deer and her two babies!! So cute!


Mama deer spotted me and they turned to leave. I was able to sneak outside and catch this little gem before they ran into the woods. I love having those woods behind us! We get to see a ton of deer!


Funny story though...
One day we were lying on the couch and Matt said, "Deer, Deer!" I thought he was saying, "Dear, dear!" I was like, "What do you want???" By the time I realized there were deer in our backyard, they were gone :( And what's even funnier is that we never use the pet name "dear" so I have no idea why I thought that. We're more "honey" kind of people :) What about you??

Love it! I always get excited when I see deer, even though they are pretty commonplace. What can I say...I love wildlife!

Matt and I never really use the word "dear," unless we're joking around. We use "babe" way more. Hmm.

We say honey and baby a lot!! ;-)

Love the pictures!

Hahaha! That's cute!

We lean towards "babe," although I have no idea why!

Hahah, so precious. I love the "deer, deer" bit.

Matt and I have gag-inducing random nicknames for each other that have evolved over the years but generally I go with "babe" :)

Wow those are close up. We don't usually say "dear". We are more for "Honey" or "babe"...but I think it's really funny that you thought he was talking to you.

I wish I had deer come into my backyard...how cool! Your deer/dear story made me laugh =)

Kristen said...

well I have to go with the crowd, my hubs and I use "babe" frequently! Love the deer pics, those babies are precious!

Annie said...

aw, 2 bambi's ;)
so cute!
pet names....i'm boo and baby, my B is honey.
i don't like dear, esp when used as....yes dear. i think when my B says that he is implying yes, i'll do (whatever i asked him to do) but he is maybe annoyed by it!? ha!
