Here Duck Duck

Autumn- I love it. The weather has been oh so fine- I could do two more months of this stuff, but I know that won't happen. And this weekend, we were graced by Emery's presence which always brightens our lives. We bought a bike trailer and so we made a trip down to the duck pond and had a picnic. "Here, duck, duck"... Duck was not on the menu today (for those of you who have seen Journey to the Center of the Earth with Pat Boone), but PBnJ was. Emery loved the gaggle of geese and the din of the ducks... it was so fun watching her chase the other birds around, trying to feed them as well.











This feller wanted to nibble Emery's wee fingers which were holding the bread.

Sunday the 2nd
We had quite a treat today... I was out digging some potatoes to have for dinner. I heard the distinct mewing of little baby kittens coming from the little shed where the older batch of kittens and cats hang out. I went in and found 4 cute baby kittens- grandpa Z's mamma feral cat had brought them out to the feeding bowl (most likely to introduce them to the feeding bowl, and to take herself off the menu). The older kittens and momma cats took off, but the baby kittens, not knowing enough to be "scaredy cats" just hung out there looking for their mother. So, I ran in to get Emery and the rest of the fam to enjoy them in case they get "wild and crazy" and don't ever get the chance to touch them again. It was a great few moments.

  1. Hermano, you are so blessed. Ducks, kittens, AND Emery within 24 hours? You can't beat that even with a big stick! Very cute pictures, too.
