A few weeks ago, Kyle came up with a fun idea to pass the afternoon with our family: a duck race down one of the rivers on BYU campus. We gathered all of our rubber duckies, and even a toy boat and sent them floating down the river as we tracked their progress to the pond at the end. I was surprised by how much our kids loved this. It was a total hit... that is, until half of our ducks went missing (probably sucked into the flitration system, is our guess) and Minnette, in particular, was devastated.
Here are some pictures of the girls follwing their ducks downstream:
It's gard to see, but there is a duck family nesting across the stream in the shade of the tree:

And then we enjoyed some turtle and duck watching at the pond south of campus:
Cute, tiny man:
A turtle!
Ducks!
And a few pictures of the incident where Waits decided to throw his hat into the pond and Kyle had to fish it out of the icky water with a stick!
And a cute video of Jovi telling me all about the ducks:
