Winter Animal Sightings

We were going into town one day and we saw 4 buffalo right in the street! We could tell there were a couple of teens, because they were going soooo slow..............they were texting and listening to their iPod at the same time!! ;)



We got invited by our friends, the Shorts, to go look at a cougar on Saturday morning. They said somebody had treed it and that there were some people with spotting scopes looking at her. She was trying to get to her kits, but all the people that were up there were all around the tree, so she couldn't get down. But finally, she jumped down and ran off into the forest.  (I was to much of a wimp to go up there and see it. But I got to see it through the scope).   *Bennett had my Mom's old camera and he took some pictures of it, but we can't find the little thing that plugs into the computer, to download the pictures.*


We got about 5 1/2 - 6 inches of snow last night! Not including all the snow that was already on the ground.  My Mom is wondering if she has the baby in this kind of weather......we better bring a flashlight with us when she is in labor!!!!


We also saw some deer (Mama and baby) right outside Mom and Dad's bedroom window. They were eating our trees.

The deer are behind the car.



Here is what it looked like when we woke up.








Fiona decided to shave a little bit in the bath (the razor has no blade):
