Family visit in PA - and a cheese dance

We all had lots of fun over this past weekend, with a visit from family at our house in PA.
Anthony, Laura and the 3 grandkids - Daniella, Michael and Andrew.

Here are some pics and Giupetto doing his tricks for the kids.

They played with my furbies. I made a Pot of Gold hat and we tried it on the furbies

 
 
Then we tried it on Giupetto. Here is Daniella - who loves the doggies:




We stopped to look at all the horses and take some pics - the boys were napping in the car:


The kids LOVED Giupetto doing his tricks - they especially loved the sneezing and they wanted him to preform over and over again. LOL

Lots of laughs, but does he do his "Cheese Dance"?

FROM EGGS... TO BABIES



I'm a little late in posting this, but this starts about 3 weeks ago...

We got to PA late Thursday night. On Friday morning my husband goes all around watering the potted plants we have on the deck.

He goes upstairs where we have a small deck with a shadow box...







and I hear "There are birds hanging out up here"... Then I hear, "We have eggs!"







Inside the shadow box, is a nest with 4 spotted eggs.







I did see both Mom and Dad, but could not get a picture of them. They are Northern Junkos also known as Dark Slated Junko.



2 weeks later, we went back to PA and.....



there were babies in the nest!



Where you see the yellow lines - that is the outline of thier beaks. If you look close you can see 4 separate yellow outlines. One is beneath the leaf on the left. There ae 4 babies!



And here's Momma. So very hard to see her standing right in the middle over the nest.









((While I was at work, my husband likes to change my screen saver on me, and I came home to this picture. These are not my babies, but I love the similarity, and I just love this picture.))




On Sunday, we packed up to head home. Gianna must think we are going to forget her, because she always climbs on top of the packages. If you take one, she'll just climb up on the next one.

See you later...

IT SNOWED AGAIN!!

Last weekend, on Feb 20th, we got another 8" of snow in PA.
Just before we left to head home the following morning, we wanted to have a little fun in the snow, well at least Gianna did.
Giupetto's hat had fallen in front of his eyes which is why he was having some problems in the beginning of this video, but once I took his hat off he was better.
Still not loving it as much as Gianna though.
Her hat had fallen under her chin and she was dragging it in the snow. LOL




We then dried off and finished packing up to leave. Little did I know that while I was packing things up inside, John had let them play in the snow again, so they again got all wet. We stopped at the first gas station and while we were gassing up the car, I dried them off and changed their coats.

DaVinci and our trip to the Pinocchio house

Hi, DaVinci here.
We have a house in the Pocono mountains of Pennsylvania
which my Mom and Dad, and sister and brother
(which you will meet below)
refer to as The Pinocchio house.
.
We went there last weekend.
.
I love it there,
and here are some of the reasons why.
.
First - This is my travel home. It's pretty cool in here.
Mom says it is a kitty kennel,
but she turned it into a really cool trailer home for me.
.
She put a perch in it,
and a toy which I love tearing apart during the ride.
.
There is my food and water in the back. - See?






















OK, I'm ready now. We're off to PA.



This is my cage in PA.
I have lots of toys in there,
and even a pink chain that I like to play on.





Oh, they shut the door on me now.


Wow, this is a rare treat.


.
You want one?

.
This is my play gym for here.
.
It's a little small, but I really like it.

It has a cool ladder and even a bell.
And I get to sit right in the middle of the living room.

.
That's my sister Gianna.
She just stares and stares at me all the time.



I think she needs a drink, but she will not leave my side to get it.
She thinks I need a babysitter I guess.
.

Mommy is very busy right now.
Look at all of her crafty stuff .


That's my brother Giupetto, over there on the right.
I like him.
He's cool and he doesn't try to attack me.
I hope you enjoyed my little vacation pictures.
--- Bye ---
