Mommy Solutions

So Journey was very upset, you see, because the gun his daddy had made for him had a loose barrel and needed a new screw to fasten it more firmly to the wood...

But mommy couldn't do it properly, and so she gave him a very masculine

"Mommy Solution"

 

For some reason he doesn't want to show his brothers his gun anymore

Journey being Adorable!

Journey & Cypress

Our trip to HIlo for Theodore

Journey is stuck! Being eaten alive by a Banyan tree.

this is Theodore

In Daddy's Shoes

Must be the berries

This is a beautiful little native Hawaiian bird that flew into our window and got all disoriented. It allowed us to hold it in our hands (camera died before I got a photo of that unfortunately) and place it in this potted tree till it recovered and flew off.
This has been happening a lot lately and sometimes the birds don't make it.
I have a feeling that it may have something to do with this new dark purple berry that I've been seeing amongst the usual forest of weeds that ever-threatens to engulf our house and cottages.
It smells good and tastes good but I think the birds are getting drunk off of them.

In case you haven't noticed: Animal Bites!

Photos from our trip to the Hilo zoo.

This was so funny! The bird squawked loudly just as I was taking the picture and really REALLY scared Rose!

Don't you just gotta love how they stick their fingers in there anyhow?

Namaste - the white tiger

He either got into the tiger's cage or we must be in the Primates Section.

better late than never...

This is what happens to kids of artists on the fourth of July....
