Get out of here cat!

The other day we had gone out to eat dinner and came back to Goo Goo's to have cookie cake for Morgan's Kinder Graduation and when we walked in the house we saw something move on the back porch. Goo Goo went to look and opened the door to shoo away what she thought were stray cats. When she got out she realized it was two small foxes. We had been seeing the mother fox in the back yard several times a week and I guess the babies were big enough to follow her to the porch, but not quick enough to run away when we drove up. The one little fox was pretty friendly and let mom take several pictures before running away. The kids thought it was pretty neat to see baby foxes.

AHHH SPIDER!

Yesterday we were in the kitchen eating lunch and Sam had finished, so he went to his room to look out his window to make sure Daddy's tractor was still there (this happens first thing every morning and then several times a day). Then we hear "AHHH SPIDER!" and Sam comes running down the hall screaming. Wil is looking at me asking what I did to his boy and why is he screaming like a girl about a little spider. I am explaining that he does have two sisters that could have previously done this very thing and I hadn't ever "taught" his this on purpose. During our conversation Sam is getting his toy shotgun from the living room and runs by pausing only to tell us "I shoot spider". See Wil, crisis averted, he has the boy gene after all.
