Gloomy Day

It was another gloomy day and now that it has hit 7pm it is sunny - go figure. So 2 days in a row no pool. I really enjoy the pool. I also intended on getting Jebi swimming but as Nathan said its just not warm enough.

So we had a lot of sunning on the deck - that is when the sun was out. When it wasn't we had a lot of cooling. heh I think Spice is coming into heat. This will be the summer of 3 weeks of heat lasting 12 weeks - you watch!

Risa is my most elegant sunning dog, I swear. She just lays out there forever and watches life.

Jebi has decided he likes standing on the picnic table and surveying all.

Dexter just was so comfortable he was caught sleeping sitting up and then finally laying his head down to take a nap. Dexter is doing amazing eve with a TT in the house.

Watching the dogs they seem to sniff, explore and truly love the cooler weather. When we lay down in the chairs on the deck or at the pool they are right there draping themselves all over our bodies. It's wonderful. But this morning it was so cold that I had a jacket on and took a blanket outside and the dogs snuggled in too. It almost felt like a fall day.

I also got everyone groomed and Nathan even brushed a couple. Now that was nice.

We at Talemaker want to wish everyone a very Happy Father's Day. We are spending it with Nathan's dad for a couple of hours. As he has cancer we are trying to make memories to treasure. Hope you manage to do the same... make memories!

If you are like me and your dad passed away (mine a long time ago) remember you are the dad of a have or two. Now that is special!

Russell's dad passed away 13 years ago. Tomorrow, he will remember his dad but also enjoy his day with our Cooper. Happy Fathers Day to Nathan and his dad and all the dads out there! We hope you have a great day!

That 1st photo is priceless of Nathan and Jebi. Too bad Nathan didn't have his right leg up against the back of the couch too! LOL

My Dad will be 92 this Sat. He's amazing!!! I hope I got his genes. :-) At least we'll all have our memories.

Nathan is at a friends today that is having chemo - not looking good and we spent the day with his father also doing chemo this past weekend. It is about memories.
