Simple Family Saturdays

So I was going to start this post with "we go to this place where there's water..." but I decided to do a little Googling so I sounded a bit more educated about where we live lol! So let's try this slightly more informative introduction...

There's a very nice park and waterfront that we found one day while driving around after going to a new fish market to get fish for sushi. Turns out, thanks to Wikipedia, that it's the Boise River, which is a tributary of our beloved Snake River. There's a very nice play structure the kids love to burn some energy out on, and then there's the ducks and geese. What classic family fun it is to feed these webbed footed friends!

They will eat pretty much right out of your hand...

Em made fast friends with this hungry guy...

Carter much preferred feeding the quieter, slower ducks than the pushy geese...

When the geese got closer, Carter opted for climbing into the safety of Daddy's lap. This shot caught the cracker mid-air when this fast goose snatched it from Joshua's hand.

Poor Carter had really had enough of the geese. You can see him staying very close to Trevor and asking where the nice ducks went lol...
