Forth of July Festivities

Every year our neighborhood has a Forth of July party and parade. The firetruck and ambulance come and kids follow it around the block on their bikes, decked out for the occasion. It's always been a fun tradition. After the parade we eat lots of yummy food and the kids play in the water that the firetruck sprays in the air. This year Ansley, TJ, and Cohen came along. It was REALLY hot, but fun nonetheless!

Bunnies!!!!

 

A recent adventure at the Fuller household was that we (well the boys--Sterling and Devin) caught six baby bunnies. Our neighbor called frantically to help her catch them in her yard. The Johnson Place neighborhood does not, let me repeat, does NOT like bunnies. Although they may be cute innocent little creatures, they tend to eat every pretty thing in sight, including the flowers, garden and any other vegetation we try to grow in our yard. My mom particularly dislikes when her plants are eaten. Of course, we were up to the adventure, so we caught the innocent looking little bunnies with butterfly nets and took them to a far away park to set them free. It was quite the task! We sprayed them with a hose to try and get them to come out from underneath the plants, and then gathered them up. They were definitely very fast little buggers. A funny sight for sure. My aunt, Mirae, thinks that we are bunny killers because there is no way they'll survive at the park. That may be the case, (they are small little creatures) but at least they're not eating our flowers! We put them under a very sheltered tree, however, so maybe they'll have a chance. I think that at least two of them will survive, but I guess we'll never know.  No harm done, right? They could all be alive right now. :)
