It is that time again...

...time for the xmas card photo shoot. Yep tonight Peeps and Terra will put on their holiday best and pose for pictures. Hmmmm....what will the card look like this year? I HAVE NO IDEA!!!!!!!!!! :)

Are you smarter than a 4th grader?

Can she fly? What does she eat? Is it a boy or a girl? How old is she? Where did you get her? What do you do with her eggs? How long have you had her? What do her feet feel like? Does she bite? How big will she get? Does she have a pool? Where does she sleep? Why is the duck in a stroller? These are just some of the questions I was asked by the 4th graders at my niece's school. I took Peeps to visit Lauren's classroom last Friday because they were studying pond ecosystems. The kids were cool and Peeps was a good duck, she did not bite anyone :-) And the number one question asked???? Are you Lauren's grandma??? Oh man...time to dye my hair!

The wayward snail...

So the other day I was going out back to feed Peeps and I notice her staring intently at the back corner of her cage. She was just staring and not moving so I walked over to her to see what was going on and I see a snail motoring (slowly of course) towards Peeps' cage. So I sat back and watched this event unfold. As the snail got to the cage Peeps started pecking at the cage. The snail made it's way to the cage and began the climb up the side. Peeps took a good peck at it and the snail fell off so Peeps had to go back to staring. When the snail got in position again Peeps went for it and successfully got the snail into her cage where it was very quickly devoured! Yum!
