Hey I Know You

Winston was here and had a bath and trim and found the pups fascinating. Roxie says  I know you!

Ella went swimming today but no one else. It wasn't that warm and Nathan took a fast dip after his nap. I weeded and weeded and then jumped in the pool. 

You can now walk in the back gate and down the path without getting swatted with bushes and trees. It's a miracle. hahahaha

I was in body ache mode today so I left the middle bed alone for today. I imagine I will be back at it tomorrow in-between pups, grooming and everything else. I only have tomorrow as Friday Roxie and her boys get baths. Then Sunday or Monday we have visitors depending on the weather so swimming is in the cards. Gardening between then.

Rocco keeps looking at the deck closed off as if to say - hey why can't we go in there? So we put toys out on the upper deck and all was happy. Can't have those puppies having all those toys and we only have a few.

Here is today's gallery.

Everyone is having a great deal of fun!

Darlah it sounds like you are still battling it out with weeds & plants...

Nice to see Ella in the pool.

What a sweet picture of Winston and Roxie. Darlah you are a brave soul to fight those weeds. Have you found a way to kill them forever? I have a repeat of thistle growing in my garden that I cannot get rid of. Very frustrating.

There are some weeds that no matter what you do they will come back. I have star of Bethlehem plant that is quite attractive but spreads profusely. Supposedly if you rip it up and dig it out it will stop but it doesn't. There are some weeds that have a self survival thing going on. Thistle reproduces by seed so the key is to rip it out BEFORE it goes to seed. Personally I love thistle for dried flowers.

Does Kat still enjoy the pool?

June 29, 2017 | Unregistered CommenterMarilyne

Yes! I have photos of him jumping in this year. He loves the pool. I imagine he will till he can't. It's truly a passion for Kat, Ella and Roxie.
