What a Surprise!!!

This weekend we went to Wilmington for my cousins 40th birthday party. We had a great time. After lunch on Sunday we decided to take the kids to Greenfield Lake and feed the ducks. We really fed more seagulls than any thing else, but as we were standing there feeding the ducks, and birds, someone spoted this thing in the water. We had been standing there at least 10-15 minutes and never saw it. It was right in front of us, just sun bathing I guess!! It decided that it would like some bread to. It actually came up to the bank and nibbled on some bread. Most of the kids were screaming every time it would make a move. I have to admit, I wondered how fast I was going to be able to run if that thing decided to make a run for one of my kids!!! I think I could have taken it on!!! (I had decided in my mind that I would just hold my kids up in the air and let the thing have my legs!!) After that the kids just wanted to go play on the playground. They had a great time on the tire swing. I was surprised that they were letting me spin them around in circles.
