Warm Weekend

The weather was gorgeous here yesterday so my sister took Grant to the zoo. She has been promising she would take him as soon as it warmed up. As you can tell by the pictures it was warm enough for shorts in February. We sent along our digital camera so they could take some pictures.

I thought this one that Grant took of the camel was great!


























































Earlier in the week we had also promised Grant we would take him to Sedgwick County Park to play on the new play equipment. It wasn't quite as warm today but we went over and had a little picnic lunch and let him and his friend Patrick play.






















































































We were out of bread so we stopped by the store and picked up a couple of cheap loaves on the way to the park so we could feed the ducks. Several of them are so tame they will eat right out of your hand.

































This little guy followed me everywhere I went and would just sit down right beside my feet. I would try to feed him but he didn't seem very hungry. The longer it continued it became pretty funny. When we headed back to the car he even followed me.














Grant had fun throwing the bread up into the air and watching the gulls swoop down and catch it before it hit the water.
