A Little Bit Nutty!

What a wonderful day we had yesterday! Sean, Connor and I all packed ourselves into the car and headed to Mira for the day. It had been a few years since we had all been there together so I knew we were in for a treat. Also, I was going to get the chance to try out the new camera on the animals. And lets just say that wildlife are a lot like humans, if they dont want you to take their picture, they hiss, growl and jump at you! So the most entertaining portion of the day began right away. We were only in the park for about ten minutes when we spotted this cute little squirrel! I told the boys to stay back and be quiet, I was going to sneak up and try and take his photo. Well, much to our surprise, the little fella came right up to me and started doing these cute little poses. Soon he realized that we didnt have any food so he scampered away but it was a cute moment. Overall we took like, or ummmm, lets say 450 photos! lol But you know what they said take 50 and you get one real gem, right? I took some that I am totally in love with, mostly the squirrel! Last night I was up all night making a layout for the DSAG Creative Team and suprise, its the squirrel!
