Day 54

Friday night Lori was in a girly mood and wanted her toe nails painted. Of course Baylor did too. One side is lavender and the other is green. He loved them so much it was the first thing he showed Grandma and Buddy when the came over on Saturday.  (If I ever meet the donor, the first thing I want to check out is his toes because no one in my family has these same toes)


Baylor and Buddy had an ice cream cone before lunch because we do that on the weekends here. 


They brought over Bailey as it is probably the last time we will see him.  He is almost 16 and surely only still walking around because of the meds he is on.  He has heart trouble, is not eating, and is passing out several times a day.  They are going to call the vet about helping him pass as they don't want it to get painful for Bailey.  But it is so hard to make that decision.



While we were taking pictures Baylor was playing in the mud.  He took a bath, we ate lunch, he feel asleep on the couch and we talked in the living room for a while. 


Saturday was the last night of the fair and we did not really bring it up to Baylor about going over. Two nights is enough for me. We played in the yard and waved at the people going by in the wagon rides.  One of Lori's coworkers stopped by for the fair and we talked for a bit on the deck before she and her son went over.

Sunday we had no plans again and we worked and played all day long.  I found a tent caterpillar nest in one of the lilacs. Yuck! and when did that happen?  I cut off the branches and we put the whole thing in the fire pit.  We gathered some fallen branches from under the maple trees and took care of the webby invaders. 




Baylor was beside himself wanting to play fireman.  I had him wait until it was nearly burnt out and he let the flames have it. 


I worked on a project in the garage most of the day but in between we did lots of stuff.  We played on the slide.  Well he rolled toys down the slide, and I fetched them and gave them back to him.  We did some digging. Shelled peanuts and pistachios and threw the shells off the deck.  We weeded. We went swimming. We cleaned out the fire pit after it had cooled down.  While we were enjoying our day in our yard, lots of people were working to remove all signs of the the fair.



Good bye until next year fair!
