tug-a-war

layla looks scary, but in the end she always lets olive win.  olives torn and tied together animals are like her security blankets.

tuesday:

we had a great walk! girls were excited to get out and chase some squirrels!

thursday:

they enjoyed the river in the afternoon and were tuckered out, but slept really badly... (side note: girls were with dog sitter for past 6 days and girls really wanted to sleep with sitter.  olive won out by next evening :-)  she needs her cuddle time.

sunday:

woof. woof. pee-poop. snacks. drinks. dinner. movies. walk (side note: my friend sat with girls last night I was on vacation)

monday:

woof. woof. long time to poo. breakfast. cold h2O. chillin.

tuesday:

it was a great day for a run! no humidity and not too hot (girls might disagree). the crazys were out in full force... (i think this means the few strange people wandering the street in my neighborhood?)

monday:

HOT TAMALES! the sun was ablaze! I think we all got a tan.

tuesday afternoon:

we had a good steamy run this afternoon & they didn't have the energy to chase after even one squirrel!

thursday:

the girls we so excited at our walk/run today.  we ran half today. boy were they happy to get back to their a/c!

friday afternoon:

we really enjoyed the sunny day today! all sorts of adventures trying to keep under the shade... we even went into bushes!

frolicking in freedom park

on monday: 

yippe, yay, hooray!! it's a red letter day....! get to have a turn with the girly girls. elizabeth (dog walker) will be out of town for 2 weeks, so aunt patty will be back with her girls. great walk today...

on tuesday:

oh yeah! a dip in the pool would feel good right now! thank goodness for the breeze...helped cool our hot bodies. terrific walk-layla took care of all her biz-olive just seems so busy with everything around her...

on wednesday:

hey elizabeth, did i mention how great it is to see the girls again? nice walk this am but warming up quickly. we love the acoustic station on your tv today. layla is laid back in the zone. pm walk. the girls were dragging tail on our way back. now they are both flopped on the floor loving the coolness (it has been hot in the atl this week).

day at the river

the girls enjoying some sun, sand, and water at a great park in atlanta on saturday. layla really, really loves the sand and still has sand in her eyes hours later. and yes, olive even found a ball in the woods. tried to upload video and cannot get it to load so here are some snapshots.
