The Grass is Green

Today was an absolutely gorgeous day. And after the coldest July 8th in 118 years, we needed it. After our afternoon nap, we went outside to play with the dog. Joey hung out in his stroller for a bit, and absolutely loved watching Ginny run after her fishy.

Yes, I know he's not centered in this picture. Sometimes the composition isn't always just about him. I wanted to make sure my mom got at least a glimpse of all her hard work. The annuals have really come in nicely in this little garden. It's absolutely beautiful to walk out on the deck and see the purples and pinks and reds and oranges. And there's finally a bud on the rose bush they planted this spring.

We also went out and played a bit in the grass. Joey is absolutely intrigued by the green stuff. I imagine he's thinking, "it's kind of like Mom's hair, but not really." He could've played out there for hours, but I needed to get dinner started. And now it's time for bed. Sweet dreams!
