Play Time with Kendra & Owen

A couple of days after Christmas, Tanyon and I got together with my best friend from high school, Kendra, and her son Owen. We met at Howarth Park to feed the ducks and geese.  It was only after we had finished that we saw a sign that said not to feed them bread...since when has this rule been in effect and why? Anyway, Owen had no fear of the geese as they came right up to him to feed.

Tanyon was a little more reserved in his approach and stayed a little further back.  In fact, he spent half of the time behind the gate and threw the bread over the gate into the water for the smaller ducks.

After Kendra and I walked around Spring Lake, the boys got to play together at the playground:

Tanyon pulled Owen into the little house and "made cookies" for him and another girl who was nearby.

Quite a fun time was had by all. We really wish they lived closer to us, so we could do this more often.
