We had left the garage door open and during dinner Rebecca and Mary told us there was a mama deer and her baby in our garage. We didn't think too much of it, but then they came back in a minute and said there was another cub with the mama. That got our attention and we realized they had said mama "bear" not deer! We all jumped up and from the safety of the upper deck, found them scrounging around looking for food. The mama dragged out a storage container full of costumes and was rude enough to not even try on the hat! She just walked over the top and went looking for more. Eric got some rocks and started throwing them at her to scare her away. She tried to catch them, thinking they were food. Eventually they wandered off, but it was enough excitement for us that evening!</div><div><br /></div><div>Here is the link!</div>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBGcYDs-tOQ<div><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3672899079831954303-1280977667400962689?l=sewabovethecreek.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Muttihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12713191962760975477noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3672899079831954303.post-54316981594754342362010-05-22T17:42:00.000-07:002010-05-22T17:43:56.626-07:00<img src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_BPzFJ8f0RWA/S_e6u2IoOFI/AAAAAAAAEwk/YhNttEY1t-0/s1600/bridals.JPG" /><div><br /></div><div>Isn't she a beautiful bride?</div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3672899079831954303-5431698159475434236?l=sewabovethecreek.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Muttihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12713191962760975477noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3672899079831954303.post-68806789805732772112010-02-12T04:35:00.000-08:002010-02-17T10:28:44.657-08:00<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LXARfryulnk/S3VLAO5ZAlI/AAAAAAAAAbw/MBqBkZRnfcM/s1600-h/004+(6).JPG"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; FLOAT: left; CLEAR: both" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_LXARfryulnk/S3VLAO5ZAlI/AAAAAAAAAbw/MBqBkZRnfcM/s400/004+(6).JPG" /></a>Brothers!

C2 and I have spent the last two weeks since I arrived to meet our newest grandson, Little Man,(See his <a href="http://barefootquilter.wordpress.com/2009/11/17/the-baby-nest-gathers-fans-at-hospital/">nest</a> here) and play with his siblings Tackler, Prince and Pretty Girl doing almost anything BUT make progress on our projects. We find ourselves at midnight just starting to work. One of the biggest problems we face is stopping C2 from adding to our workload... We read blogs and keep finding things we just HAVE to make, too!<br /><br />The popcorn above( from <a href="http://taxigirl.deadjournal.com/9402.html">here</a>) is the first of the projects to reach wrapping stage!
