Merry Christmas!

Chris wanted to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas!  So sorry we haven't kept up with posting, but I'll try to be better and keep everyone updated.  He has certainly had his share of adventures this year so I'll have to try to post some photos soon.  In the meantime, Chris will be celebrating Christmas and his hatchday (birthday) today!  He is 14 years old today.  Hard to believe it's been almost fourteen years since I brought my little chick home.

Have a great day!

Dancing to the Copacabana

Chris loves to dance and he has several dance routines that he does spontaneously, usually out on the street in front of an audience.  He especially loves dancing for children.  If we're taking a walk and he's wearing his harness he will hold the end of the leash and dance around while holding it and wave at the kids.  Chris' favorite dance music is Barry Manilow's Copacabana.  He loves dancing around my mother's kitchen with her.  Here are some videos I shot over the 4th of July weekend while visiting her (Chris' Grandma Barbara). You can hear him trying to sing and his lyrics are all "Barbara!"
