Kiss good bye

Happy hug and a sad good bye.
It was time to take the ducks back and Addie was not happy at all. She did a great job saying good bye but when we got into the car she lost it. She knew from the being that we were taking the ducks back when they got to big for the box we were keeping them in and well they grew and it was time. Addie cryed for 45 min. after we said good bye and I felt really bad, so I asked here what I could do to help her feel better and she said she wanted a monkey and that she would stop crying if I got here a monkey. I don't think so!



Playing at the Beach

So we are still here.

Sorry I have not posted in along time. Chad just fixed our internet yesterday so I'm back.
We love Ventura, we have had great weather the last 2 months and have spend alot of time outside. I had been wanting to get beach pictures of my kids done and I finally got around to it. I had alot of fun take these pictures and by the end of the afternoon I had alot of great beach pictures.

Easter

Easter Sunday

We had a great Easter this year with our big egg hunt. We had over most of our family and a few friends, & like alawys the kids out numbers the adults. I guess Adam can never say he has no one to play with when family is around. Adam has 2 couisons on each side of the family that are the same age as him.

March a month of Fun

This last month has been so busy. I didn't get time to post about our family visitors. We had all of Chad's family here. Mike came from San Fancisco, Nate & his girlfriend (Judith) came from Arizona, & Lisa & Daniel came from Utah. It had been a very long time since we had all been together. The kids love having so many aunts & uncles around to play with. One of the first days with the family we went to the Santa Barbara zoo. For once the adults out-numbered the kids and I actually got to look at the animals instead of chase children around.

Chad, Mike, Gary, Nate & Lisa

Addie had the best of time with Uncle Mike and his guitar. They even made up their own songs.

We love our ducks

We our having so much fun with our ducks. The kids love playing with them & I love takeing pictures of them together. Here are just a few of the pictures I have taken in the last few days.

Ducks Ducks Ducks!!!

So our chicken eggs didn't work and our duck eggs are not due to be done until next week and well we didn't want to wait any longer so we when and got ducks yesterday. They are only 2 days old and we are having so much fun. After we play with them for a few weeks we will take them back to the farm were I got them. Addie said she is the ducks mommy. They love to climb up on her lap and they flow her around the house, it is so cute.

St. Patrick's Day

Happy St Patrick's Day!

Love, Addie, Emma & Adam

Easter is on it's way and so are our chicks & ducks!

I thought it would be fun to have baby chicks & ducks for Easter so I got two incubators and 8 eggs in hopes that we will end up with babies. The girls are so excited and every day they put a sticker on a count down calendar. It takes the chicks 21 days & ducks 28 days before they will hatch.
