Go Karts and Mini-Golf

We did our once a year Mini-golf and Go Karts on Sunday.  Megan got a hole in one just like last year.  Jason and Jesse were competing to see who would get a better score.  Jesse won by one point.  Kora had several holes where it took her only two shots to get the ball in the hole, even without moving the ball closer. 





Then Jason, Jesse, and Kora drove the Go-Karts.  Megan didn't want to drive or ride along.  Jesse started out driving slow for Kora, but she told him to go faster.  Jason is pretty speedy in the Go-Kart.  He would slow down to let Jesse and Kora pass him at times to make it more interesting.  Then Jason would speed up and pass them again.




Duck Banding

The Agassiz National Wildlife Refuge was banding ducks on Saturday evening.  It was open to the public so we decided to take the kids so they could see the process.  There were a ton of people there, and we had to wait over an hour before they netted the ducks, but it was worth it once they got to hold the ducks.  Megan and Jason held male mallards and Kora held a wood duck.  Megan was in heaven.  She loves animals, so this was perfect for her.  Even though there were a lot of people there, the staff were good about letting everyone hold or touch a duck that wanted to.
