Feeding the ducks

This adventure was captured on film or really an sd card on June 1st, 2008. Prior to Whitney getting braces and Desiree getting a short bob hair cut.

~~
I need to be cleaning the bathroom, but I cannot find the will power and gumption to do it. Company has gone out for the day and I am doing nothing because it's to hot and we have no A/C.
~~

All five kids piled into our truck and off we went to feed our old bread to the ducks at the river.

I stopped to get some penny candies (that are now 2¢ a piece) and a Dr Pepper.
This is what Whitney took while I was in the gas station.

Desiree & Whitney fight like cats and dogs in small confined spaces.

Meet Mr Monkey. He is Whitney's DI find from a couple of weeks ago. She wanted to bring him along and take random pictures of him in different places.

On the east side of the Snake River, there were more seagulls then ducks.

Whitney handed out the bread and I took the pictures.

Brittany and Hailey found two ducks to feed while the others fought over the bread.

"Ok, that's it, we're leaving. Get into the truck!" I said. But, really I drove them across the bridge to the west side of the river.

I love the west side because you can see this.

And there are a lot of cool places to take pictures, like this.

I love this picture of Desiree. Maybe I should not have cut her hair?

Oh, I hate seagulls, and we live 900 miles away from any ocean.

"Here Ducky."

"Hurry! Take a picture of it too."

Whitney thought she missed it, but look...

This blog dose not approve of littering. I recommend using a trash can.

But it made a good photo adventure.

Two more pictures of Mr Monkey for the road.

He was lost in Whit's room for a few weeks, but now is found.

yeah, no bathroom cleaning going on here either.. or laundry folding, or dishwasher emptying, or sweeping, or mopping....I could go on and on. However, I do have a load of clothes in the dryer!

The falls are gorgeous and love the Temple in the background! Fun family adventure!
