Eating Hair & Heat

 & BathsRisa can't help herself as she eats her hair. I almost want to ponytail it away from her mouth. We tried to spend sometime outside. I had some vines to cut back as Nathan said they will catch on fire on the BBQ if you don't. The dogs didn't want to stay out long. Even at 9am it was hot.

No one swam as I was not up to grooming. My hand was tingling. I had already brushed everyone and did several baths. I have 2 more to do if I can talk myself into it. We shall see.

The Tia was one of the baths. We haven't seen her in a bit. It was wonderful to see her. She really connected with Boo, Brewer and Benji. I find if I get bathing Nathan doesn't click enough so you don't get the action photos even though they are acting silly crazy in the house. After all there is air. Next year I vow I am going to get an underwater camera just so I can take some interesting photos. Can't do it this year. I may also figure out a sling system so I can carry a camera around with me. Obsessed? Perhaps.

So when I bathe a dog Nathan is always caught messing them up. I have to brush them yet again. This is Zoe. She was so perfectly groomed too. hahahaha

I wonder what she is dreaming of? Time to eat and then go home. So fast of a visit. We enjoyed it immensely!

Cute photo o Risa and Abigail(?) At first I thought Risa was wearing a party hat, but it's something behind her. LOL

Debi: Yes, my amaryllis pot. No amaryllis is in it at the moment but like it so it sits till fall when a new one goes in.
