We have rattlesnakes here in Kansas but they are mostly closer to the Oklahoma and Colorado borders thank goodness! Love the deer but I agree with you...they won't be so nice if they eat your flowers! The deer here stay away because of our Shep ...but then he pees on my flowers so ones about as bad as the other! Love the pictures of your daughter and Addison...they've both adorable. I hope your weather warms up soon...I'm so sick of this cold weather. It's to start warming up tomorrow though so maybe this weekend will be a nice one. I'm hoping the same for you.<br />Maura :)Maura @ Kisiwa Creek Photographyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10992187526413563417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8453105784166847940.post-80285332970496209572011-04-26T22:11:17.777-05:002011-04-26T22:11:17.777-05:00What a blessing that both are back to normal life ...What a blessing that both are back to normal life again.
