Awesome Afternoon

This afternoon my mom & Wallace came up from South Austin to pay me a little visit. It was great to see her & show off all the hard work Eric & I have been putting into our yard (I'll be posting before & after pics sometime soon). She brought me a deeeeelicious lunch from People's Pharmacy (you should try their chicken salad sandwiches ... they are the yummiest around!) & some .77 strawberries, courtesy of the price war between HEB & Newflower Market. Yay for moms! Mine is especially awesome!!

After I scarfed my sandwich, fruit, chips & a cookie (OINK!) we went out to the lake with Wallace, Sophie & Percy in tow. The weather today was amazing & all the dogs had a fantastic time! We were even joined by two other black dogs so we had a full on BBD (big, black dog) convention on our hands!! The only BBD missing from our pack was Simon (& Jack too!). He, my sister & my dad really need to join us next time!

Here are some pics:

Wallace takes in the view

Wallace & Sophie swim waaaay out to investigate
a rock or something in the water

Percy started to meet them on their way back in, but
decided against it. He is not a water dog!Two more BBDs join us ~ Cocomo & Jerry. Thank goodness
everyone played nicely! (the fuzzy blob on the right is a
blob-o-mud that I didn't notice was on my lens until later)Sophie chases Percy to get THE stick - no other stick
was as special as this one!She's got it! Let's get her!!Percy & Sophie play hard ...and Wallace takes a break ...
I had to post this! My mom & I laughed SO hard. There we
were, armed with poopy bags & Wallace decides to make
his deposit in the lake while the others watch. Nice.
Wallace gets his belly dried before heading home

Oops! I did it again ... I took a ton of pictures & only a few have people in them. It really is all about the dogs!

Thanks again for coming up, Mom! I had a blast!!
