Deer Season is Coming
September 26th, 2007
Wes and I have this little banter that we do if he’s in full camoflauge … He’ll want me to do something, and I’ll say, “I can hear you, but I can’t see you…maybe if I could see you!”
This is a little snack and good luck wish for me to leave for Wes on the opening day of deer season! Of course, he’ll leave here at some unearthly hour, like 4:00 a.m. so there is NO chance I would see him, camo or not. AND, he’ll say the nuts in the cello bag leave too much scent distraction to take to his deer stand, but it’s the thought that counts, right?
This is such a quick project, that I almost didn’t load it here! But, then I figured who couldn’t use a quick and easy project every once in a while?! The box idea is one of Jenn’s 2-5-7-10 Boxes with no flap. I have stamped Kraft Cardstock with Cornish Heritage Farms Woodgrain Backgrounder. I added some cut up flowers around the top to resemble leaves and then added the sentiment in BLAZE orange. LOL! I’ve hand-drawn the scope sites. I know Wes will chuckle, even if y’all don’t. 
Thanks for looking! I’ll see you tomorrow!

That is absolutely fabulous! I don’t have a hunter in my house but I can understand everything you have said! :o)

Well, he can eat those nuts in his truck on the WAY to the deer stand, can’t he? LOL! Very cute idea, Lori!

I laughed and laughed when I read this! My husband is usually the one who says “You can’t see me” when he is in full camo (with camo face mask too). I showed him the box you made with the sentiment and his reply was “She’s trouble!”
thanks for the laugh! I needed that today

Lori I love this!! I’m a fellow hunting widow and loved your story - I will definitely be case’ing this idea! My husband would complain the nuts were too noisy too!
LOL!

BTW…. the little gift is cute! I’m sure he’ll enjoy his snacks at some point AND he’ll know his wife thought about him which is moi importante (SP?).

Lori! I don’t have a hunter husband…but I think that is the sweetest thing, and great creativity…the sentiment in the sites is a hoot!

VERY cute. My husband would love this… but who would make me one? I love to hunt!

Lori…this is SO great! I don’t have a hunter husband either, but worked for an avid hunter for years and know how important that day is to them! Love it!
