Another Poor Animal

Last weekend it was a cat that our kids were obsessing over, this weekend it was a bird. We were out running some errands this morning and we stopped in at Petland to see some of the animals. The kids got to pet some of the puppies and hamsters but for a while they were going crazy over a $1,500 parrot. I don't mean to offend any bird people out there, but would someone seriously pay $1,500 for a bird?

Anyways, the poor thing seemed to be trying to escape from his 3 visitors.




Here is one of the cheaper birds. Seriously?!

Grandma and Grandpa Rauckman just got back from a holiday in the Virgin Islands. They brought the kids back some lounge wear and they were pretty proud to be wearing their outfits. They (the kids, not Grandma and Grandpa) look like they're ready for a retirement community, they just need their socks to go a little higher.




I think I see a little Steve Irwin, the Crocodile hunter, in Mitchell.
