Last stop on the birthday train with our friends.....feeding the ducks

After eating ice cream and walking around Bridge Street, we drove downtown to the art museum area to feed the ducks. I had stashed a loaf of bread per girl in the back of the van....just for the part of the trip. Thankfully the weather held up, and we were able to feed the ducks. They are used to being fed and are pretty friendly, er uh, agressive. The clue read, "Will these little critters gain weight while are here feeding them? At least TEN pounds I'd say..with all the bread we have on hand!!"

The girls had a lot of fun as we finished our day here..then got a quick drink at Sonic and met their parents to hand them off around 3:30 p.m. so that Abigail and I could head home to prepare dinner and do our last 3 activities..making it a total of 10 things on her 10th birthday. Keep watching....I'll post those soon.

....as soon as we got out of the van, we were met by hungry critters...
..once we were done with feeding them...the girls posed for one final picture....
...the girls hard at work..
..this duck was interesting to me because his beak was sage green and he had a purple stripe on his side...though the colors did not come thru as true here....

The entire birthday celebration looks like so much fun.
That was an unusual duck. I don't think I've seen one like that before.
