More pictures from the weekend

I just wanted to share some more pictures from our trip to Eufaula this weekend.

A quick trip to the lake

This past Saturday, we took a quick day trip down to Eufaula to see my parents for Father's Day.
We took the dogs with us, but only Brutus went out on the boat with us. This was his first time on the boat and I wasn't sure what to expect. This is what I think Brutus' emotions were throughout the day...excited, scared, curious, scared again, confused, excited, tired, scared again, curious, excited, tired, tired, tired, exhausted. Yep, that's pretty much how it went.

He was most scared of the motor on the back of the boat. He just couldn't figure it out.

This was one of his favorite spots. He liked looking out at the water.

The rest of the day was spent getting in and out of the water and napping.

It's hard to tell if he enjoyed it or not, but I do think it was too hot for him on this day. It's hard for him to breathe when he's hot and he just looked uncomfortable all day. He wasn't sure what he was supposed to be doing, but then the next minute he would be wagging his tail and was excited to get to play with all of the other dogs on the beach.

I'm sad that of all the pictures I took of him I didn't get one single picture of him in his life jacket! It was too hot for him to wear it around everywhere, but he was so cute in it!

Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day to my dad!

I feel like the older I get, the closer I get to my dad and the more important he becomes to me. He worked so hard to be able to give all of us everything we had growing up. I really don't remember a time when I asked for something that I didn't eventually get it. I don't think this makes me spoiled, I think this just means that my dad wanted to do what he could to make me happy.
I'm also starting to realize how good of a listener he is. It makes me happy when my dad thinks to call me just to talk. He really does want to know what's going on in my life and I like to hear what he's up to. Lately, we've been talking alot about our cameras. He bought the same camera I did a few months before me. That's just one of the things we both enjoy together. The other is being at the lake. I'm glad that he was finally able to move to the lake full time about a month ago.

I hope he reallizes how much I love and appreciate him. Happy Father's Day Dad!
