The other day we went out to visit my parents like we usually do. Eli won't even go in the door any more, and if somehow we manage to get him inside, he grabs his boots and pushes you out of your chair. "atside! pease!" There is just so much to see and do, why waste time inside?
I loove being out in the country, this is where I grew up and lived most of my life, it is really cool to watch Eli play in the same spots I did as a kid. It brings back all of the memories of running around in our bare feet, playing in our log cabin that our parents built, swimming in the muddy pond, (Eli hasn't been allowed to try that one) exploring the woods and seeing all the animals that lived there... I'm definitely a country girl.
Since the snow melted, two ducks have been claiming my parent's pond as their home. They are there every day and are probably Eli's current best friends. He feeds them, (..more like shares the bread with them, giving himself every other piece) talks to them, (..more like quacks with them) and plays catch with them (..more like throws stones 'to' them.) They have warmed up to this crazy guy and it was great to get some pictures of him exploring the outdoors, creating memories of his own.
..He had to take a little break on his tummy to make sure he picked the right rock to throw. Life is good.
I think the first one is my fav...you captured the duck quacking and colours really well!
