Earth Day fun!

We got our act together and planted some flowers around the house on Earth Day! Seemed like a great way to celebrate our terrific planet and the boys will do anything to play in the dirt! My little loves to water the flowers for me... even after a rain... ;) !

Some mating actions...

During a visit to the FW Zoo this week we had a great encounter at the Flamingo habitat! The males were very vocal and aggressive- clicking their beaks and snapping at one another for mating rights. It was very interesting to watch. My 6 yo son points to this group of loud & crazy acting birds and declares them to be the "Boys" and points to another group that was peacefully resting and says "and those are the GIRLS!" It really is that simple, isn't it? LOL! He always thinks it is so amusing that the boys have to try to impress the girls- who are trying their hardest to ignore them... and so life goes....
