Moose on the loose!

Who would have thought that we would have a moose roming our neighborhood, let alone our backyard?
About two weeks ago a neighbor boy came to our door asking if he could take a picture of the moose in our backyard. "What, I exclaimed, a moose in our backyard!" The kids and I ran to the back sliding door and sure enough there was a moose sitting down under our big pine tree. The neighbor boy spooked it coming into the yard to take a picture. I ran to get my camera and got some picutres of it running away into the other nieghbors yard. That neighbor and us share a little gate on the back fence. Interesting that the moose knew just were to go to get through.
We thought it was gone after that. But....
A few nights ago I was driving down my street to go home but the kids wanted to drive up "Antie Beth's" street which is just further down the road. It was dark but out of the corner of my eye I saw a moose running up the field towards our street and house.
I followed it and it went into the nieghbors back yard that we share the fence with. I ran to their door and she yelled for her kids and husband (they have been on the moose lookout ever since the last siting) to come and see. We looked out her back window which looks right into our backyard. I called Justin and he came out to look and he couldn't see it at first. He went around the side and came right to it. The moose jumped the side fence and off he went.
There have been several moose sitings since. The wildlife control people can't ever find him when we call because he wont' stay in one place long enough. Fun to have a "little pet" roming our neighborhood. Not really though I hope they catch him soon so the poor thing won't get hurt or starve to death.

Just horsing around

So Tucker and Kendall got a bouncing horse for Christmas this year. They both love to ride it. Tucker doesn't get a chance very often because Kendall is always on it. The other day they both were on it and Justin decided to take a picture. They have a lot of fun together.
