Favorite Picture of the Week

Last week my dad, brother, step mom and sister in law came for a visit. He brought his pet tortoise with him to show our dad. Her name is Babbette. They've had her for 2 years. 



Then my sister in law pulled out their newest addition, a baby tortoise. They already have a dog, 3 cats, 2 rabbits and Babbette so adding another little tortoise is no big deal. lol

  1. My aunt had an old tortoise who used to hang out in her garden and it would scare the bejeebers out of me when I'd come upon him all of a sudden under a plant. He was a neat guy. Ah, love seeing picks of Babette and the baby.

    1. That's funny. I can understand getting scared if you're not ready for it. They were really cute.

    1. They actually live in California. My sister in law's aunt has a few and when she was given a hurt one to rehab, she gave it to my brother and his wife.

  5. They have a small zoo lol

    We had a gopher tortoise living in our yard for several years until his tunnel collapsed. He and the dogs would check in and say hi to each other every day lol

  9. I've seen a few crossing the street where I live. The move so slow I am always tempted to help them pass the busy road so they aren't hit!

  12. She's a beauty! My cousin-in-law has two of them. They are a few years old and have certainly grown a lot.

  13. They are so cute! We used to find little baby ones in the creek down the road from my house when we were little, but mom would never let me keep any of them.
