This past week Lola came to stay with us! It was soooo much fun and we had some great adventures. Lola was determined to get Sophie moving around better...
And she did make strides in the 'walking with you' department. Now she will actually do it and likes it instead of just standing there and crying, which is what she used to do. Lola helped her discover that she can chase Bonnie around the room and she LOVES that!
On Wednesday we drove out to Yosemite and spent the day in the Mariposa Grove of giant sequoia trees. And yes- they were GIANT. It was beautiful! We had a great day and enjoyed seeing snow too! Looking at these pictures it's hard to believe that a sequoia tree seed is the size of a flake of oatmeal. The trees can live over 3000 years.
Although we played hard we worked just as hard, if not harder, on the yard and organizing the garage. My backyard was overgrown with weeds (I wish I had taken a before picture! We couldn't see bonnie if she was out there) We dug out all the weeds then put grass seed down. THEN we fixed the automatic sprinkler system... with a slight glitch that resulted in a geiser.
But the end result turned out great!
Overall we had a wonderful week filled with memories and we were very very sad to see Lola leave! Especially Sophie, since she had started to really enjoy having her own personal jester around 24/7. And bonnie will definately miss Lola too, since she started to really enjoy having someone who feeds her human food around 24/7. Things will probably be pretty boring around here now with just mom and dad to entertain. I have one more thing to post about Lola's trip... but it is a major event and requires a seperate post space! STAY TUNED!
LOLA WE MISS YOU AND LOVE YOU!
