Somebody stole Suzi the Guard Cow, my lawn decoration!

The story starts a couple weeks ago when my old neighbor gave us some cupcakes!  She gave them to us in a cupcake dish in which I returned this weekend with homemade oatmeal, cinnamon, apple cookies!  I made Saturday afternoon while watching LSU beat Georgia in the SEC Championship game.  I have to say, this was my first time making these…they were pretty good!

Anyway, I returned the dish on Sunday afternoon and my neighbor was telling me about her apple decor and how her daughter likes cows.  I said, she would like Suzi!  Of course my neighbor knew Suzi well…she gave Suzi a new paint job one spring.

Suzi is my gaurd cow.  Actually she is a lawn decoration.  We bought her at an arts and crafts fair in Georgia one summer a long time ago.  We’ve had her through 3 moves and 3 different neighborhoods.  Suzi is up-cycled metal, maybe some up-cycled car parts and such.  I thought she was cute!  I just had to take her home!  We got a discount on Suzi because the artist put a hoof on backwards.

So, I said, “your daughter would like Suzi!”  Then the thought came to me!!  I HAVEN’T SEEN SUZI IN MONTHS!!!!!!!!  I asked my 10 year old if he’d seen Suzi and he said no.

I CAN’T BELIEVE MY SUZI IS GONE!!!  Who steal a cow lawn decoration?!?!?!  I wen’t back and checked my doorbell ringer camera.  So, between May 26th and June 10th, she was stolen.  The ring camera was installed June 10th and the pics below were taken on May 26th.

So, my plan to find her is to walk around the neighborhood tonight and look in yards!!!

Anyway, here is a pic of my Suzi..
