Warning we are a weird family!!!!
Remember the "trophy" Hunter Dan got back in the fall? Oh wait I wasn't blogging then. Anyway Hunter Dan is a big time outdoors man, he loves hunting, fishing, camping, and 4-wheelin'. He was exceedingly excited last(whenever it was... in the fall sometime) when he shot this buck!

YAY, honey...way to go!!!
Away it went to the taxidermist with GREAT anticipation of its return... and wouldn't ya know it....it's back already. Well, a few months back when I was suppose to be doing shortmama's "home redo...one room at a time", I posted about how we would be changing the living room into a more outdoors, wilderness, cabiny type room, to accommodate our growing collection of wilderness "stuff"(you can read that post and see pics of the living room here)...didn't happen yet, because of.... "the puking my guts out thing" STILL going on, and lack of money.
Well, no big deal! Hunter Dan doesn't care if he's nestled in with more boutique type things, and here ya go...our newest family member found a place on my unchanged walls. Right above my rocking chair.
Everyone meet "Francisco" (that's a fun name to say.)~Buddy the Elf
We(the kids and I, Hunter Dan does not appreciate our humor)needed our new little friend to have a name. Lexlee piped up with "Francisco", everyone else added..."that's a fun name to say". (Seriously, we love "Elf", and watch it year round!) Hunter Dan gave me the look of "No you will not!" So.....his name is Francisco. He will look fabulous at Halloween time with some cob webs and spiders gently nestled in his antlers, and at Christmas with a Santa hat and red clown nose! Come May 5th, he just might get a sombrero, and mustache.....
Oh Hunter Dan will be so pleased! Thank-you sweetheart for adding this new member to our family, and giving me one more thing to decorate for the Holidays!!:-)
