Edric’s first time in grass

June 9, 2013 by 1 Comment

After a short weekend that included a roadtrip to Houston to watch our niece’s first dance recital, Edric came home a little grumpy from all the car riding.  I figured getting out into the yard and getting some grass under him would help unwind him, and it really did!

What…IS this?

Seems OK so far, but I dunno…

Ahhhhhhhh, yeah, that’s nice and cool

Alright, this stuff is actually pretty great!

He’s always a happy man when Momma’s got him

He likes me too…sometimes…

Katie’s lemon tree is coming along nicely!
