Oh Deer

We have pet deer. A couple of them. Or so it seems. Almost everyday lately there are deer in our backyard. They eat our grass and then go take a nap under our trampoline. They stay for days if we don't make them leave, but we have to evict our pets daily so that the girls can play outside.

We have very high fences. However, our back fence is on a steep hill. The deer can easily jump into the yard from the back fence, but going the other way is a different story. So to help them find their way out of the yard we will open gates, but one day we left the gate open the entire day and the lazy deer just kept napping under the trampoline.

Yesterday out of the blue Brooklyn exclaimed, "I want to go ride the deer". Oh dear.
