A Menagerie of Summer Stuff

Kyleigh likes to follow all the neighbor boys and her brother when out riding the 'hood.

Zoo visit with B's friend. 

 It was pretty crowded that day. We skipped out early as soon as Trent met us for a quick picnic lunch.

 Chooch!!

Nature realm walk

 such a pretty place

 The kids found something in the trees...

 ...a doe.

 The kids got to see one of their favorite cartoon characters outside their window

 Bugs Bunny. Kyleigh and Brenden put out a few carrots later that day

We had a battle. Kids vs Me. I think I won. 

They really loved this crazy swirling sprinkler. B got it from a good friend for his Bday.

Trent took out a picnic table that was under this tree and trimmed its limbs so that they were no longer touching the ground. Makes for a cool canopy for the kids to ride under now.

We had to do some significant de-forestation in the small garden area. And Trent took some stones to make a little path for the neighbors to all access as they jump back and forth over the fence. 

One morning we found a turkey vulture in our front lawn enjoying a dead bird. That thing was huge. Like the size of a full grown chicken or small turkey. 

B takes after my brother in his tv viewing positions. crazy.

Cool kid.
