We noticed a few days after 4th of July that Lulu looked a little fat and she kept getting fatter and fatter. I thought she was still a few weeks away from having her puppies but on Sat Derek walked by the door and said "Lulu just had a puppy!" So we ran outside and sure enough it started. It took her about 2 hrs to have all 4 and they were all healthy and a good size. Lulu was great, I though for sure it would be miserable but she didn't even make a sound and instictively knew what to do when they came out. She had 2 black ones, a white one with brown patches, and a chocolate one with black markings. They're really cute, but we're not planning on keeping any of them, so does anyone want a puppy????
Playing in a ditch...
Our friends let us in on their secret and we took the kids to play in a canal ditch not too far away. The water was COLD! Paige had fun but Kevin and Darci were a little scared to slide down it.
Roper Lake...
We finally went swimming at Roper Lake. It was a lot of fun, I'm seriously thinking about getting a season pass. It only takes about 10 minutes to get there! There was a little sandy beach and the water was the perfect depth for the kids. And a nice green grassy area for a picnic.
Picnic on the Mountain...
We joined our friends up on the mountain for a picnic last week. Darci was a mess, she found every chip and cheetoh that was within reach. It's nice to be able to drive up there in about 20-30 minutes and have some cool weather. I guess the rangers are all worked up about the local bear population and were warning everyone about the bears.
Derek comes home...
Derek and Jack came home from Washington last week. They had so much fun, so much in fact that Derek has been bored ever since getting home! We sure missed him!
