Making their triumphant and striped return...

THE ZEBRA DEER!!!


*and the crowd goes wild* (that's you. Go wild now.)

Woot! Woot!

We made a couple of changes to them this year (you can find a previous post explaining about our Zebra deer HERE). First, I glittered the Alabama A's...



and then I added the perky polka-dotted bows.



Their formerly gold antlers are now painted red...



and we are still the weirdos of our neighborhood... well, almost.

Based on the vandalism spotted at the entrance of our neighborhood, our community will be welcoming baby deer decorations (bow chica wow wow or something like that). The soon to be proud Pa Pa looked like this guy...



and that will be the ONLY picture that I post related to this subject.

Have a great weekend Y'all!

WOOT WOOT WOOT WOOT

I'm wooting over the zebra deer. They are absolutely hands down bar none my FAVORITE outdoor decor I've EVER seen!!! I LOVE the red touches - - - so much BETTER than the blue, and so ROLL TIDE!!

Speaking of Roll Tide - - - the "gift" arrived in the mail last evening. I am SOOOOO excited to give it to her today. I'll be getting pictures and POSTING so you can have the joy of seeing her face when she opens it.

Also - - - I found the receipt, TYVM, and I READ the shipping cost on the postage sticker, so I'll be getting a check in the mail to you - - - ASAP, like in tomorrow's mail since I didn't get it done last night and am at school now where I can't get it done until AFTER my mail goes today.

You are the BEST. One day I really really really really really really really want to meet you.

And now, to close this really way to long comment, a few more woots for the Zebdeer:

WOOT WOOT WOOT WOOT WOOT WOOT WOOT

arachnerd said...

I think they're awesome. And they just keep getting better. I love it when families create their own unique holiday traditions.

Sandee said...

I love your zebra deer. They are absolutely adorable. I like the accents you did too. You just have to accessorize you know.

Have a terrific day and weekend. :)

Those are so fun!

Rose said...

Those are so CUTE! Now I am jealous...lol. I got a huge chuckle out of Matt-man's comment about the Santa-geti plains.

Well I am off to find some red glitter....look out!

Merry Christmas!

Seriously!? I'm in LOVE with those! I don't care so much about the Alabama "A" (so sorry :-) but both my girls names start with A so that would just work perfectly. Would you be terribly upset if I drove down and picked them up?

WOOT WOOT WOOT WOOT!!!

barb said...

Your Zebra Deer ROCK! I love 'em! Dare I say it? You could leave them out all year and dress them for each holiday! Uh huh!

TJ said...

Oh I want more of the vandalism story! That sounds too funny!

Your zebras look great! Our outdoor decorations currently consist of snow, snow and more snow. At least the tree is up, even if all the decorations are on one side thanks to the young decorators.

LOVE IT!!!!!!! ABSOFREAKINGLUTELY LOVE IT!!!!!!

Muthering Heights said...

I absolutely LOVE THEM!!!!!

Matty said...

Lots of red going on there.

Nice new design.

Tammy said...

Love the zebra upgrades!! And that whole deer pro-creating decoration thing always cracks me up.....always!

Kirby3131 said...

Too funny about the deer vandalism and the resulting baby :)

OK, LOVE LOVE LOVE the zebra deer! It takes a great mind to come up with such an idea. I liked the original idea of the tole painted deer, but when that wasn't working for ya, you didn't just waste the effort - you turned it into utter fabulousness!!

The glitter A, the red antlers and the red bow perfectly accessorize the zebra deer. Way to go!!

I wish I was your neighbor :)

Brenda said...

Aw, the return of the funky zebra reindeer. I remember them! Nice embellishments.

Art said...

That's cute... except for the bama "A's on them. Don't you know they can get you for animal cruelty for that?! ;)

You guys rock!
<><

Charlotte said...

Love the zebras & the touches of red!

Just Breathe said...

They look great. We have two reindeer with lights which be put in the backyard this year so we can enjoy looking at them. So now the neighbors see nothing in front.
I'm tired of things being taken.

Jacque said...

I continue to love those deer, but I think the antlers should be glitter too. A girl can never have too much glitter!

Rachel said...

Those are hands down the best, most creative, most fun and gorgeous Christmas lawn decor I've seen all season! If you need to know what to get me for Christmas.... ;)

I love it!

Deb said...

Zebra-print deer!

With the Alabama "A".

If I knew where you lived, I'd come and steal them.

Just kidding.

But I really do like them.

May you have a wonderful Christmas and may the Tide continue to roll.

Sweet dreams.

I LOVE those deer! I would suggest cranking those out on the esty site, I know you'll have lots of interest! SO cute!
I am so behind Jennifer. And quite frankly I feel like a behind bc I have been a slacker lately on visits and post and comments. I beg forgiveness.
I LOVE th eheader pic! I am sticking around until I read all the post Ive missed.
LOVE YA!!!!

Abbey said...

THAT was an awesome thing to do! You could probably market those Alabama reindeer and become an entrepreneur in no time!

Merry Christmas, Jen!

Sarge Charlie said...

ok, ok, how humble do I have to get, :>

jennifer said...

You don't have to get humble at all Sarge.

Love you and Miss Bee!

Roger said...

Been to GA for a wedding there. I looked to my west, but it was to foggy, and there were too many tall trees for me to spot your house and wave.

So then, have a Merry Christmas. My First Wife and I wish you and yours many delightful blessings.
