Be Our Guest

Katelyn took a musical theatre class again this year and she just had her end of the year performance. It was a medley of Disney songs from various movies. She did great and it was a great show!

Ducks: 4 weeks Old

and they keep growing!!!




Their growth has slowed a little while their adult feathers are coming in. Looks like we will have three girls. Yeah for me, but I am not convinced yet. Last time I was so hopeful for a girl I got a boy! Ha!

Spring is in the Air!

And my girls love playing with the camera.
It is just to beautiful to be inside so we grabbed some dinner and headed to the park. The trees and flowers are in bloom and they are beautiful.

Ducklings : 3 weeks old

Are you surprised to hear they are ALL still alive? We are just as surprised!!

It has been 3 weeks and we can not believe how much these little ones have grown.


At 2 weeks old, we began taking them outside a lot because they were crowded in that small box.


Then at three weeks they had definitely outgrown the box so we made them a new home in our outdoor yard box and put the smelly things in the garage.

So cute when they cuddle up to sleep!
I took this pic to show their tail feathers growing in. When we pick them up we can feel the hard strong adult feather that are beginning to come in.


Here they are at 3 weeks old. We still use the plastic box to transport them to the pond and back to the garage. When we put them in the box you can really tell how much they have grown. They are so big now that when they stretch their necks out they can see over the top of the box. They love being in the pond. Since they don;t have there adult water proof feathers yet they can't swim around for too long before they get cold and get out on the rocks to warm up. We still pull them in at night and will until the are about 8 weeks old.


21 days before!!!

I included this last pic so you can see how much the have grown in 21 days. Truly is an amazing thing!

In this season of growth it is fun to watch another of Heavenly Father's creations grow!

Happy 1st Birthday Christian

Where has the year gone? Christian you are such a joy. You were a great suprise in the beginning when we found out you were a boy. You have been different from your siblings in your development and it has been fun to see your little personality. We love all your pinches and you squeels!

He happened to be very clean and neat when he ate his cake ball for his birthday. However, you can see his lunch still on his shirt.


Cheers to Christian!

Old Friends

Susie and her family were nice enough to come visit us while they were in Utah. It was good to see her after all these years and meet her great family. It was fun to look at some old pictures, catch up with her and share all the gossip from Clovis!

Thanks again for coming to see us Demkes!

Looking at these pics...Swoosie and I practically switched bang styles
