Cheapest Games

It was just another drippy day in paradise. I actually had a sweater on when the sun wasn't out. It did rain. Our daughter from North Carolina, hubby and 2 grandkids are with us tomorrow swimming so we hope that bad weather is behind us. Can you believe how Wasabi was vegging at the pool?

The trio was watching.....

The plant pot falling off the railing.

It was windy so they were not quite sure how to handle this flying pot. But it became a cheap game of who was going to get close.

Some watched while others made attempts.

Some gave them ever curious glances.

Some tried to ignore.

Some watched.

Some decided to finally tackle this moving thing whipping around due to the wind.

It was rather funny. None were frightened. They were just wondering and watching and not sure they trusted which way it was going to go till the first tackled then the next did and Risa sat on it.

I think Risa has taken over Pippin as if she is her baby. It's a riot. Yes, Pippin plays with all but Risa coddles her.

Kat and Phantom had baths today. With Cali still in heat I have to wash them thoroughly every 5 days and wash underneath daily.

Finn made a trek to our vet for neutering and he is recovering nicely.

We had a great day and tomorrow is a fun day I hope! Not too often I see the daughter from North Carolina!

Funny how just about anything can become a game for them. All these fancy toys but all you need is a pot rolling around in the wind :)

Oh Darlah, the pot game was hysterical. I loved it, thanks!

The expressions on their faces are so funny !!! It must have been a riot to watch.

The weather man 'promised' a cool night (12) with 24 for tomorrow. With less
humidity it should be nice to sit outside. Your pool is heated so it should be a fun day.

Loved the photos. The pot watching was funny. Good for Risa she 'captured' the pot. Good for her she has adopted Pippin.

Wasabi lounging by the pool was great.

I hope the weather co-operates for your daughter's visit. Have a wonderful time! Who is the pup with the short cut in the pic of trio? Looks just like Lilly-from behind that is! lol

That's Trigger - of course he looks like Lilly. :-)

Have a great day with your family! I agree, the cheapest and simplest games are often the best. A pot, a sock, a baseball cap, and the list goes on!

The plant pot blew off and became an unintended game. Wish I had the video camera.
