I have loved everyday of weather that we have had this week! I even have a little tan on my arms and shoulders! SO GREAT! Since this next week is supposed to be a lot of rain, I decided that I needed to take note of this amazing weather. On Tuesday I laid outside and read my book before going to Brad's flag football game. On Friday I walked around the Downtown square with Emily and Margaret, a little more sun! When we got home I took Nala and Bentley to the park, They absolutely loved it, they always do, but Nala especially loved it this time.
Nala loves to run and run and run, she is crazy fast so I think it is the only way she gets her energy out. I had forgotten to bring a toy or ball to throw with me, so the two of them had to find their own entertainment and I just watched. Bentley did his usual exploring and marking (peeing) and Nala started to run round and round. Nala soon found a couple of friends to chase at the park. Two Birds kept flying in and landing just long enough for Nala to chase after them and then they would fly quickly up in the air away from Nala. Even as they were flying Nala was racing after them, a couple of times I thought she was going to catch them. I swear the birds were having fun playing chase with Nala, because they could have so easily flown off to where Nala couldn't reach them. But they kept coming back for more... Nala stayed at her top speed for most of the park visit and definitely wore herself out. She let me know how tired she was by laying down in the only small little mud puddle there was in the entire park. She proceeded to roll in the mud and cool off, despite my efforts of keeping her out of it, and then would try to chase after the birds again. Her pace was at a jogging speed at best. She just didn't have anything left. After another few minutes in the mud to cool off, I walked them home and immediately gave her and Bentley baths ( or Brad did, but whose checking).
Saturday we were out at a birthday party for Emma, so much fun in the sun, at the park and then I came home and Autumn and I did some much needed trimming of the shrubs outside. More Sun! We finished by taking the dogs back over to the park and letting them burn most of their energy. Needless to say, I have a tan! and lines, but again whose checking?
I love the Sun, I love Texas Hot weather, I am lovin' it!!! Now bring on the rain, I will find a way to love it too!
