These little cuties

...were hatched sometime over the weekend. I was a little scared that the mama would see me and attack so the picture isn't the greatest. Hopefully I will be able to get some more pictures as they grow. :)

As soon as I moved the branches back their mouths popped wide open! They looked so cute it almost made me want to find some worms to give them.

Looks can be deceiving.

I came across these sometime last week and thought I'd share a picture. For a few days I had been seeing a bird fly in and out of one of the bushes in our front flower bed. I finally decided to look in and I saw this little nest. They look very similar to Robins eggs but they're Mockingbird eggs!
We're keeping an eye out for them to see when they hatch.

Can't believe it's already June!

For weeks we have been talking about taking the girls up the road to go feed the geese. There is a pond about 2 miles away that always has lots of geese hanging around. We finally went yesterday and didn't even feed the geese. As we were walking up there were a couple of ducks that greeted us so they were the ones we fed. Not to mention they're much nicer than geese. :) We had 2 bags of bread and saw that there were about 50 geese and knew that it would pretty dangerous to try and feed all of them with only 2 bags of bread.

Ava was a little weary of the ducks but she would throw some bread and then point to it and tell the ducks to go get it. However, Ellie was trying to feed them from her hand!

After the geese realized what was going on they started coming across the pond to try and get in on the fun... Needless to say we started running back to the car. :) Hopefully we'll make it out there again b/c the girls had a blast!

As always we had a great time visiting with my family! This trip wasn't as long as others but still good. The girls had such a good time and are still asking to see everyone. :) We're hoping to get back up there sometime this summer for a longer visit.
Here are just a few pictures from our time. Enjoy!
