"Blacky" the rabbit that won't stay away!

About a week and a half ago, Blacky the rabbit got loose. Millie had been cleaning out her cage and accidentally didn't latch the gate - so in the morning.. NO BLACKY. There were no tears shed by Millie and she actually said "I'm not sad anyway, we would give her away when we move to town." So away we went on our merry life.. low and behold, the girls and I were out on a bike ride and a man in a van pulls up and says - "Are you missing a rabbit?" and hold up a rabbit with striking resemblance to our beloved BLACKY. *sigh* in the presence of the children I could not say "Hmm, nope sorry sir - no rabbits here!" So we again have our little compost-a-holic back in our lives again. The girls are happy, so I guess we are happy.

Also, we have had some lookers at the house but so far nothing as far as an offer has come in. Although we did have a couple last night that seemed a little interested so we will see how that goes. Collin said that he slept with his fingers, eyes, & toes crossed last night! Can't imagine how that would be comfortable - but whatever works, I guess!

We watched a beautiful great grey horned owl last night from mom & dad's deck. It was hunting about 10 ft from the deck.. very cool. We got lots of great pictures and the kids found it quite interesting. He stuck around for at least an hour then we left so who knows how long he was there.
