Feed the Birds

The last few weeks we were in CA were kind of crazy. The kids were really feeling the stress of all the packing and studying that Wes and I were doing. I decided one day that we needed to just get out of the house. My friend had posted recently on her blog about going out and feeding some geese. I gave her a call to find out where she went, and we headed out.
We had a lot of dry bread that I intended to make into bread crumbs, but I figured I wouldn't get to it before the move. The geese and seagulls were very happy with our decision!

I could not believe how crazy they were, especially the geese! They would get right up next to us. I was actually a little uncomfortable. I kept thinking they were going to grab the bread right out of the boys' hands!
I felt a tiny bit guilty for feeding them since there was sign saying "Don't feed the birds," but what was I supposed to do-turn around and go home? The kids were all totally looking forward to it! I thought about going across the way to the beach where there wasn't a sign up, but hey, I figured it'd be the same birds just in a different location! He he he . . .And you can see, they all thoroughly enjoyed themselves.
There was also a cute little park that the boys had some fun on. Man, I miss CA when I look at these pictures!

I just love pictures of the two of them together!
