feed the ducks

Last Friday was so very nice out that we decided to spend the afternoon outside. It had been a while since we had fed the ducks so we decided it was a great day for it. After we were done I told Bill that it may seem silly but watching Jennifer feed the ducks is one of my favorite things to do! Jennifer runs after the ducks with such determination, she is convinced that she is really going to catch one. The whole time she is running she is yelling, "Come here duck, come on, come here duck." It is really funny to watch.
And what does Mikayla do while Jennifer is chasing ducks around? Well on this particular trip she decided the bread would be fun to eat. So she grabbed into the bag and got herself a slice and just ate away. Very cute! No need to feed it to the ducks when you can eat it yourself.
Bill is trying to see how close the ducks would actually get to the girls. This is about as close as they got. I think I may have gone a little crazy if the ducks had gotten any closer, I really don't like birds.
Jennifer is holding out a piece of bread calling the ducks over. She really just wanted them to eat the bread out of her hand. No such luck.
Now Jennifer is trying to get dad to get the ducks to eat the bread out his hand. Again she was so determined to get the ducks close to her.
After feeding the ducks we went to the park for a while.

Even Mikayla went down the slide a few times. I don't think she really got what all the excitement was about.

Check this girl out!

What a sweet fun filled family afternoon!
