DUCK DUCK GOOSE

FUNNILY ENOUGH, ON THE SAME DAY THAT I CAME UPON THE ‘DINO WEDDING’ ON ONE OF MY WALKS I ALSO HAPPENED UPON ANOTHER FRONT YARD THAT HAD DUCKS PLACED IN VIGNETTES.

I KNOW I ALREADY DID A BLOG ABOUT YARD GNOMES BUT THERE ARE OBVIOUSLY MANY PEOPLE WHO LIKE TO PUT OTHER CUTE STATUES/SET UPS ON THEIR LAWNS. WHO KNEW? 

I REMEMBER THAT EVERY MAY I USED TO REMARK TO MY PARENTS THAT I THOUGHT IT WAS SO FUNNY THAT PEOPLE IN MY HOMETOWN USED TO DRESS UP THESE GOOSE STATUES IN QUAINT OUTFITS AND SOMETIMES EVEN CHANGE THE OUTFITS FOR THE SEASON OR OCCASION.  MY DAUGHTER, EMILY, HAD NEVER HEARD OF THIS BEFORE SO I TOOK PHOTOS OF THEM ONE YEAR AND I THINK I SHARED ABOUT 10 OF THESE THINGS WITH HER UPON MY RETURN. SHE CRACKED UP.

EVEN THOUGH I THINK THEY ARE SO CORNY I ALSO REALLY LIKE THAT NEIGHBOURS FIND JOY IN THEIR DECORATING AND LIKE TO PROVIDE A SMILE FOR THOSE WHO WALK BY.

SO GET OUT YOUR GNOMES AND DUCKS AND GOOSE STATUES AND HAVE ‘AT ‘ER’. YOU MIGHT JUST MAKE SOMEONE’S DAY ! AND IT MIGHT BRING A SMILE TO YOUR FACE TOO.
