Free Day Friday

Well obviously it's Friday today and I am glad of it. I usually plan to do something fun with the kiddos on Friday and worry about nothing else but relaxing and having fun. I don't even bother with cleaning the house and when both of the kids are sleeping...I'll be lucky if they both are asleep at the same time, I do something I want to do! Today its blogging.

Earlier, Jack and I played in the pool and played tractors in the dirt. He also helped me pull weeds...he likes loading them in his dump truck and dumping them in various places. For me its like pulling weeds twice! We also did some bird watching with the binoculars. There were two Hawks that landed in a big oak tree several houses down. They were being chased by a flock of small birds....I am guessing that maybe eggs or hatchlings were eaten by the hawks. After they landed in the tree you could see the small birds diving in the tree and flying back out...it was a sight to see, even Jack was enjoying this thrill. He kept asking, "What they doing? What they doing?" After lunch I showed him some videos on utube of a hawk catching a snake...He really thought that was cool! He said, "I going to spank that bird for gettin that snake."

I think we might get a head start on making a Father's Day card when Jack wakes up. We are taking Jack and Avie to Avery Island tomorrow. I hope Jack enjoys it...if I know him well enough, he will. I'll be sure and post some pics of the trip. So long for now and Happy Friday!
