    Missy dragging that squash plant for all she was worth reminded me of when she blocked the doorway to the shoot with the Christmas tree she dragged in!

    Missy peeling her veg first, as usual!
    Was that a delicata Bubba was eating? Those things can be hard as rocks!

    That’s the coolest gift, Rylie! The vines are beautiful, especially hanging from the ceiling. Rayne looks on in wonderment! Missy and Burrito scored, too. The vine is bigger than Missy! After the squash has been devoured, will they eat the leaves or wadge the vine stems?

    Happy Birthday Eve Missy!!! What a way to end your last day of being 48.

    Looks like it was great enrichment! I love seeing them have to sort through the vines and such, just like in the wild!
    Missy dragging off the whole thing reminds me of Honey B with the World Chimpanzee Day platter. Just swooped in and.. yoink! Like momma, like daughter!
