Jake petting a Deer in Cemetery

Deer in our Backyard

Our backyard leads to the cemetery in Canton IL. While playing in the backyard a deer walked up to fence line and started eating our hosta plants. It seemed very comfortable around people. The deer let the kids feed her grape, apples, and cracker. We enjoyed her company for at least an hour before she ran back into the woods.
