While a wedding progressed in the trees behind them…
The kids met Elvis. A very senior ferret (8 years old) owned by friend and fellow juggler, Sam. Although Kate did try to push him back in his box with the carrier door, the kids were basically gentle with Elvis and admired him carefully.
Kate was much more interested in Elvis than Will. Although both seemed to agree: Elvis asleep was much more interesting that Dad juggling.
Even when he juggled with knives. Paul tells me these photographs will come in handy if I ever need a restraining order. 
See? Kate is more interested in Elvis (whom she called “gato”) than in the knife her father is holding mere inches from her head. It’s those little details that make us such quality parents.
After awhile, Will decided to try a Tarzan routine on the low-hanging branches. Didn’t work so well for him. Even with Kate around to give him a boost. (Monkey see, monkey do.)
