We're back home too! Tired... Sensory overloaded and all that....

D's kids and grandkids brought this to Thanksgiving.

Would any of you who've met Gidget bring this to an event that Gidget was gonna be at?

LOL... It was almost bad, D's six year old grand-daughter walks in the door today all proud of her bird sitting on her finger. Luckily and with much quick intervention, the bird was not murdered. But Gidget was fixated and had to spend much of the day in the truck.

The parents would ask - "Does she have to go to the truck even if we set the bird up on a table or something?" I'd say.... "Have you ever seen this dog lung at the television at the mere IMAGE of a bird?" I said... "Not a good idea."

Heh...wife's Richmond sister got married on January 2. Nana, Papa and an older sister stayed with us.

Older sister brought her parakeet because she was afraid that it would freeze if the power went out while she was gone. She stayed in Jr's room and had the bird there.

We came home between the wedding and another event we had to go to so that we could turn on the candles in the windows. Wife walked into Jr's room and felt something fly by her head.

Abby (the cat) had gotten into Jr's room and pushed the cage off of the chest. The cage and birdseed were all over the floor.

Fortunately, the bird was okay. I managed to go up behind it with a handkerchief and get it back in the cage.

We didn't tell the sister for weeks...
