Another Fun Outdoor Day

Filed Under: fun, playing

We took advantage of yet another great weather day here. It seems the miserable heat has finally gone away and we can begin to enjoy fall weather. Here in the South that means 80’s instead of 90’s but I’ll take it! We headed on down to the park, which is just a short walk from our house:

First we go down the street then…

We hit the trail!

Iain loves the monkeybars.

Ryan had hobbit feet…again!

I’ll be honest with you. He went to bed with those feet!

On the way home we spotted this dude:

He had a whole bunch of plants all to himself. We couldn’t believe he was the only caterpillar there.

We went home and rested a bit and then we went back out with the dogs. Lily, the puppy, is a crazed maniac on the leash. She cannot stand for anyone to get ahead of her and starts barking when that happens! Melvin could care less. He’s just happy to get out and check his pee-mail.

It was a really nice day.

RAIN! So what will we do? »

    Hobbit feet! That just cracks me up. My youngest has permanent hobbit feet too – maybe they could start a club or something?

    LOL That’s a great idea! He has them constantly and looks like he’s been making the trek to Mount Doom.

    I wonder what they could call their club…

    Can you believe we went back down there today and he was still there! On a different leaf but he hadn’t been picked off by any predators. I was really surprised!

    I’ll have to ask Jonathan… he’ll be jazzed at the thought of celebrating his ever-dirty feet! 🙂

    LOL Sure! My feet can certainly qualify as hobbit feet several days out of the week.

    I don’t have the nickname “dirty kid” for nothing….

Bowie has had a tough year and a half. He was misd Bowie has had a tough year and a half. He was misdiagnosed by the first vet we used here and that led to a situation where the treatment almost seemed worse than the disease. Thankfully, @lawndale_vet helped us navigate that situation and they have nursed this big boy back to a much happier place. We still are uncertain about how much time we have left with him but, for now, he is the happiest we have seen him in a long time. I am so thankful to the staff at Lawndale for, not only providing great medical care, but for loving on him and making him feel like the best boy ever at each appointment. ❤️❤️❤️

This is the face of a very sad boy. Bowie has been This is the face of a very sad boy. Bowie has been suffering with licking granulomas since last March. We got the first one healed and then he got one on his other paw. Then that one got better but his paw pads got rubbed raw by the protective boot he was in and now are infected. Fingers crossed that this cone helps keep him from licking it so he can heal. Until then, Bowie is going to be a very sad boy, indeed. 😢

This cute little cup came in a pack from @christma This cute little cup came in a pack from @christmastreeshops and it’s bringing all the fall vibes today! Yes, it’s still almost 80° here in NC but I’m getting impatient for cooler temps. Trying to will the cool air in! And how cute is that plate behind my cup? My sweet friend @tlventura made it for me and it’s one of two fall decorations I kept when we moved. Hope you’re having an awesome day wherever you are, friends!! ❤️❤️❤️
