Sitting Ducks....

It turns out that we have two ducks that have made nests in our flower beds.... One destroyed my daylily that I was sooo proud of. I hope the eggs hatch so that it's worth it!!
Peak behind the plant and you will see the duck... I think it's a female mallard duck.

This black and white duck is the one who has been laying eggs in our beds for a while.... She is now sitting around the clock. Check back and see when we have chicks!

Have I mentioned lately that I love my job?!?!?

Hoppy Easter!!!

A few days ago we got an early Easter present.... A duck made a nest behind the iris in our flower bed!!! There started off being just one egg, then came two more, and today there was a fourth! I asked Kenneth where he thought they were coming from.... I shouldn't have!!!! He told me "A ducks butt". I asked him where he thought the next two eggs came from... he said "the same ducks butt". Keep in mind we have never seen a duck sitting on these eggs!!!

Like our own little Easter basket :)

Some of the other eggs in the neighborhood hatched in the past two days.... the babies are already out swimming!

What do you do if.....

The grass is greener on your side of the street???

Thought provoking....

"You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is about the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it."~~~~ Dr. Adrian Rogers, 1931

Spring 2009

Port O'Connor

This past Sunday we went fishing in Port O'Connor and had the best time. It was the perfect ending to spring break
I loved watching the pelicans glide over the water and catch the bait fish. They are so graceful!

Kenneth caught the first redfish, isn't it a beauty?!? 38 inches long and 39 pounds... crazy big!

These fish were massive... I have never seen a fish caught that large in my life!

Second catch, he is a really good fisherman!!! I guess since he caught me and all .....

Our friend Randy took a turn and brought this big fellow in.

My turn!!! You could hear the drumming inside the fish when you held it, it was amazing!

Now I can really say I caught a fish "this big"!

He finally caught one right as we were about to come in off the water. It was a long drive down, three hours, but so worth it when we started catching!
