For the birds...

We took the boys to the zoo today to enjoy the warm 70+ degree weather!

In the small bird exhibit, Braedyn wanted to feed the birds....

so for $1 you can get a little popsicle stick with some bird seed stuck to it....

lets just say....

it was worth the dollar!

Another bird flew over and landed right on the stick Braedyn was holding,
stuck around for a good 30 sec to eat all the bird seed before flying away.
B & B were both very suprized and the look on their faces was priceless!!!

yes, we took Prestyn with us too.

He loved the elephants and hippos and spent about 10 min looking at each.

And of course I had to attempt to get them both in the same picture
and both looking in the same general direction of the camera.
I've given up trying to convince Braedyn not to make faces.
and Prestyn...well, he is just Prestyn!
oh well. its memories...right?
I zoomed in on each of them to show their "poses".

Disclaimer: The pictures are blurry because they were taken with my little Nikon point & shoot camera and I had to zoom in ALL the way because I was too far away. I will take the D70 to practice tonight to get better pictures!

Happy Green Day!

Feeding the Ducks

It was a nice day today so we attempted to take the boys to the Broadmoor to feed the ducks at the pond... only to find out that it is no longer open to the public. Everything is gated and private. So instead we ended up at Prospect Lake @ Memorial Park....

There were some really cool (cut down) trees along the lake that made for perfect picture taking opportunity.

The sign that didn't stop us.

We came to feed ducks and gosh darnet we were going to feed ducks!

Apparently other people must obey the sign because the moment we took the first piece of bread out of the bag, the ducks, geese, pigeons and seagulls came swarming in. It was like a poultry attack but it sure gave us a good laugh!

Feeding the swarm as fast as they could.

After about 5 minutes, this guy came from out of nowhere and everyone else must have thought/known he was boss because they all moved out of the way.

And this "special" guy cracked me up! This is how he looked the ENTIRE time!

I think he was hoping the bread would just fall into his mouth.

Don't they...

...look so sweet watching Word World together?

Ice Festival

This weekend we took the boys to Crippple Creek for the Ice Festival.
