So..........Its always a zoo around our house. One Sunday afternoon not too long ago Nate and Melissa were out visiting and all the kids were downstairs and Harold had gone Home Teaching so just Lissy and I were sitting in the livingroom talking (Nate was asleep on the couch) when something out the front window catches my eye. I look out and there is a little moose about a yearling, trotting through my front yard BIG eyed and looking left and right acting like he was lost! I am guessing that his momma had another calf and he was kicked out of the nest, poor little thing. So we watched it trot clear around the side of the house and through the back yard and he dropped right down into the creek and swam around the corner out of sight anticipating that it would jump out on the bank somewhere so we continued to watch it and there it was at the other curve still in the water! So we kept an eye out and it finally jumped out on the other side of the creek about 1/4 mile down. It was so cute. Its always fun to see wildlife out where we live.
So last night the dogs go CRAZY in the middle of the night. Harold goes out and lets Lenny off the chain (she is our hound) and she takes off on something on the west side of the house. Then Harold runs in as says " Get me a gun there is a huge porcupine on the woodpile!" So we head out and by this time the dogs have needles in their nose. It was the biggest porcupine we have ever seen! Fun Fun! Needless to say we didn't get a lot of sleep last night!
