charlie needs some sunglasses...

I worked from home this afternoon and Charlie was my assistant - well not really, he just rolled around in the grass. I love this picture because he looks like the sun is too bright for his eyes!

charlie gets a bath....

Since Charlie was in Memphis last week he missed his regular grooming appointment SOOO this weekend, we decided to give Charlie a bath. Well, let me re-phrase that, Jon gave Charlie a bath and I supervised and took pictures :) Charlie did so good! We got a plastic swimming pool and he just stepped right in. The part that took the longest was drying him. He holds water and it took TWO hairdryers to get him dry! Jon and I decided that we have a whole new appreciation for the ladies at Rover Oaks Grooming and writing a check is a much easier than giving Charlie boy a bath but it was a great way to spend a Saturday morning and Charlie loved it!

After his bath and all fluffy! We treated Charlie to a new bone and he loved it!!

another memphis adventure...

We were in Memphis this past weekend and Charlie had a slumber party. He spent the night with his aunt Margaret (I guess its really his great aunt Margaret but that sounds old and she is way more snazzy than that!) Margaret is always taking Charlie to parties, to her office, for walks, buying him treats - she spoils him just as she has done (well, still does!) me!! Saturday morning she took him over to Ann's so he could run around and do his business in her yard and he came out looking like this! Charlie loves to play in the big bushes and it had RAINED the night before and was still raining. Poor Charlie looked like a drowned rat! When we picked him up she told us he hadn't eaten his breakfast so we just put it in the backseat with him. I turned around and he was eating it! Charlie boy will eat wherever! I brought back some furniture so there was no room for Charlie :( so that means he is spending the week with Jon! He looked a little confused (actually VERY confused and a little SAD) that I was leaving and he was staying, but I think he figured it out! Charlie has ALMOST mastered a new trick that Jon has taught him. I think by the time this week is over he will have it! I'm so happy that Jon and Charlie are the best of pals :)

charlie does yard work...

Well, sort of! We spent a LONG weekend in Memphis and it was the best! Saturday morning, Jon worked in his yard and me and Charlie supervised...in the hammock :) We could not believe that he actually got in it (with Jon's help of course!) He even sat up and moved his big booty to make the hammock swing. I think Charlie has a new spot :)


On the way back to Fayetteville, I had to stop in LR to pick up a painting. I forgot how wide it was so I had to lay down one of my back seats. Charlie was not happy, so he laid his head UNDER the painting!
