Thursday ....already?

It's hard to believe it is already Thursday. We are getting very excited about our vacation. We leave on Sunday. We are going to a greyhound event in Kansas. Mama & Daddy will meet my "real" Daddy at the Greyhound Hall of Fame. He's a greeter there. I know, I've mentioned it before but I think it's really cool that he found a job at his age (almost 10).

Scout is being silly today. She forgot to eat again and is freaking out. Her stomach is making noises and it scares her. I've told her to eat, but she said she is scared. Mama gave her a little cheese and peanut butter and she is better now.

Daddy fixed the washing machine last night. Mama is washing everything in sight. I bet if I get in her way, she will try and wash me too.

Wordless Wednesday

Memorial Day

We are back home. We came a little earlier than planned because it's supposed to rain most of the day. The weather man said no rain until Sunday night. This is what we woke up to Saturday morning. I really don't know why we believe the weatherman. He lies all the time. He will even say that it happened just like he predicted.



The people next to us were in tents and they came out soaked. They had a dog with them and he came out soaked, too. It didn't look like fun and they left early Saturday morning.

The park had a lot of standing water and a lot of the kids were mud wrestling in it. Scout said it looked fun to her. I liked watching the kids play in the water, but I didn't want to get near it. Scout did get in the river twice. She just wants lie in the river.

We had lots of celebrations this weekend. Friday was Aunt Pam's birthday. We had cake and ice cream. Sunday was Mama and Daddy's wedding anniversary. They have been married 23 years. Yikes! That's a long time. They went out for a steak dinner last night and brought me and Scout back a little of it. It was really good.

Here is a photo of me and Grandpa. He didn't give me any treats this weekend. I don't know why. I was very good.

Everyone in the family but Grandma, Grandpa and us left yesterday. They were scared of the rain. It got muddy, but it wasn't bad. We left early today since rain was predicted for most of the day.

We are only home for a few days and then we are headed out for vacation.

Mama is headed to the laundromat. Our washing machine and our refrigerator both died last week. She has not been happy about it.

Have a nice day!

Jack,

Memorial Weekend

We are busy getting ready for our family camping trip. When I say family, I mean F-A-M-I-L-Y. There will be 16 of us. Grandma & Grandpa, aunts, uncles and 7 skin cousins. We get a lot of attention from the cousins. The only problem is that they have trouble telling us apart. Mama says there is an easy way to tell Scout and I apart. No, it's not the way you think. You would think they would figure out the way you are thinking, but they haven't and we really don't want them checking underneath us all weekend and talking about it. It would get out of hand and the youngest cousins are not quiet. They like to yell. Can you imagine how embarrassing that would be for us?

The way you can tell us apart is that Scout has a white tip on her tail. I'm starting to get a gray tip, but it's not as noticeable as Scout.

Grandpa always gives special treats while camping. I'm licking my lips just thinking about it.


I probably will not be able to update you while we are camping. There is very limited cell phone service there. The teenage cousins say that if you lay in the middle of one of the roads, you get a connection. We haven't tried that and we don't plan to. The teenage cousins go through a texting withdrawal when we camp. LOL

Have a nice weekend everyone!

Happiness is....

...sharing a laugh with Mama.
