Hello out there!!

Wow! Mom and I just noticed I have over 100 followers!!! This must have happened sometime when she and dad were gone and she accredits FFM and her amazing pictures for the jump in followers, but I know it's my gosh darn cute personality! ;)

So welcome to all the newbies, if you've never posted a comment, we'd love to hear from you and know about your blogs if you have them. And to all the 'old' regulars thanks for stopping by again, it's nice to know I have people who love me just the way I am!!

That Salty Flavor

Well I don't know how much you all know about Texas, but most everyone knows it's hot!

My parents have been back just a little over two weeks now and about 14 of those days have been over 100 degrees! They were used to the lower than 80s in that foreign place and they are having a hard time coping.

I'm teaching them the ropes of how to deal with heat, morning walks, lots of water, and so on.

I have to help dad out a little more though and this is how I do it...

See he's been sweating a lot so I help keep him dry and cool. Mom says it's pretty disgusting and she doesn't understand it or like it, but there's just something about that salty flavor...

Sunbathing

Ahhh it's nice out!!

Goodnight sweetheart...

Since mom and dad have been home they seem to need a little re-training on what the right and wrong things to do are.

I have to remind them a lot to remember to play ball with me by demanding to go outside. They don't seem to appreciate the 100 degree heat and forget to spend time out there!

Another thing... they claim they have to catch up on all the good American TV they missed, as they say the British TV isn't so good. So I've had to re-train them when it's bedtime and show them where the room is.

Here's me showing them where the bedroom is and that we should all be tired because it's bedtime. I'll usually lay here until the notice me and get off the couch!

What do you have to re-train your parents on occasionally?

Hi from your long lost friend!!

Hi everyone I know it's been ages and I thank you for still stopping by. Mom and dad are back and I'm happy to be home!

Tonight we're grilling out pizza, don't know how much I'll actually get but I'm happy to beg for scraps!!
