Yes you read that right! After dropping off Noah at daycare this morning Shawn and I were making our way to the bus stop. Well not even a mile from daycare what should appear to RUN across the road? A flippin deer! Shawn was able to lock the breaks up so we didn't hit it at full speed, but we still hit it. After we pulled over said "You ok?" to each other and both responded with "Yes", we got out to first check on the deer (we are animal lovers) and then check the car.
Shawn got to the deer first and no sooner had he gotten within 15 feet of it, she got up and scampered off into the forest. I hope she is still scampering through the forest at this moment. Our car on the other hand can still scamper, but the front passenger side headlight, the whole bumper, grill, and dent in the hood needs to be fixed.
So instead of making the rest of the way into the office we figured we'd have better luck if we just turned around and came home to work. Which turned out to be the best idea ever because a snow storm has decided to come through that we didn't know would be this "bad".
But to give me a good laugh my co-worker sent this response to my email telling them I was at home and the reason why...
I am glad you are OK.
Next time use gun to hunt deer. Car is a bad choice.
How is the venison?
Both Shawn and I laughed so hard when he sent that. Thank you Arun!
