fruits and nuts


there are not words (and unfortunately BARELY photos) to describe the chaos around this place lately.

it all started because i'm an enabler. i wanted to help siesta hunt birds, which God made her to do, even though she lives in a house with wood floors, smooshy beds, and no birds. i feel bad about that.

so i bought some fruit and nut bird seed at the local bird seed retailer. and put up a couple of feeders. right near the front window in the living room.

and NUTS IS RIGHT! i cannot get a picture of them to save my life, but i swear, i have like 57 birds right out my front window right now! they are HUNGRY!! they are super duper excited! so am i! (ps. siesta is napping. like i said, i am doing this for her :))


look at em all! okay, you cannot see them but TRUST me, they are there. they are hilarious to watch! in 2 days, they have eaten a $6.99 bag of nut and fruit bird seed. WOW. that's alot but they seem to be worth it :)

as soon as i get a moment, i am heading out to sam's club to buy a GIANT container of said seed. hopefully something that will last at least a week...who says winter is not fun?!

Lots of tweety birds help to cover up a multitude of nasty neighbor noise!

I love how you can take the simplest thing and make it joyful. You are a great example to me!

i think there is a reason God told us about sparrows in the bible. i kind of think they are important :)

they say a bunch of birds in the bush are better than one bird in the house. or something like that. can you write bird food off as a charity donation?
