Conners fishing adventures, Mothers day and the circus!

                    Hello all! I know I am a little behind, but its been busy as normal. This is Conners last week of school, I am actually kinda happy about that.
    Conner has been going fishing with josh quite a bit and he has reeled in some keepers. Conner absolutely loves fishing and Carter loves playing with the fish. I am glad Conner loves fishing so much because then Josh and him have something they can love to do together. I love fishing too, but with Carter I can't really fish, I have to watch him and make sure he doesn't fall in the water.
      Mothers day was nice, I got to go to the greenhouse and pick out some vegetable plants to put in pots. When I got home with them Josh helped me to put them in pots. It was fun. Later that day we went to the campground and went fishing on Red Cedar on Joshs dads new boat. We fished for about an hour and didn't catch a thing, sad.
           
    The boys and I went to the circus with Becky this year, it was her first time ever going. She loves elephants so she had to ride one. The boys and I had already rode one, but I decided to go again with them. It was very cool, but scary when I thought the elephant was trying to sit down, yikes, you will see how scared I was in one of the pics below, haha.
                                         Wowee!!
                                          Close!
                                                  CLOSER! So cool the rabbit let me get this close to snap a pic.

                             So Cool!!
                                  Okay for the big story. So remember my last blog about the baby robin at my moms house. Well I called the Chronotype one day and told them about this baby robin and they said they would be interested in taking a pic of it and maybe put it in the paper. So a day later they came to my moms and waited for the perfect moment for a good pic and well here it is. He got a good pic of Mrs. Robin feeding baby. A few days after this was taken the baby flew away. How cool that he got one of the last times the mama fed her baby before it was on its own feeding itself. Very neat! And it made the front page of the Early Bird, fitting title. :)
                                                                 Ciao for now!!
