New Grill

Being the cooking enthusiast that he is, Michael was so anxious to be able to grill at our new home, he decided to use his allowance money to buy one rather than wait until we could budget for one. 



We assembled it in the living room. 





Ruger, of course, was part of the process. 




It took a bit of burning off of “coatings” before Michael could actually start cooking...




Pork chops!




He also grilled corn on the cob and put together a lovely coleslaw. So yum!

We ended the meal with music requests and dancing to Uptown Funk during cleanup.

Cat and Doe

Our neighbor’s backyard is open to woods behind us and for the past few days a doe has been visiting to feast on the clover on their lawn.




Yesterday Meghan bravely stood on our back deck and alerted us to the doe’s presence, and Ruger soon followed suit. Today, it was Tigah who took it upon herself to check out the very large and odd-looking dog in the neighbor’s yard.



She didn’t get very close before the doe spotted her, at which point Tigah became more interested in taking a stroll in the woods. 



The doe followed. 







Tigah emerged from the woods a few moments later and quickly found a spot on the couch inside the house. 

Adventure over.
