I love running in my yard!

Today was a "normal" day for me and the cousins.  Aunt B & Uncle M got up early and let me out in the yard - which I love!!  Everytime they go downstairs, I tear down as quick as my legs will take me and I run right to the back door!  Uncle M went into work in the middle of the morning, so I went to my crate and hung out next to Eleanor all day.   When Uncle M got back, he let us out and Eleanor and I played tug of war with a stupid sheep toy until we tore it in two! When Aunt B got home, the entire living room was covered in white fluff - what a success! I'm sure she appreciated that present from us.

I'm still learning not to jump when people come in the door, but today I managed to get my butt on the ground when Aunt B said to "Sit!"  I mean, I jumped right back up and tried to claw her leg, but I think I'm figuring out that she might want me to stay with all 4 legs on the ground when she gets in.

Now it's bed time though.  I'm very very tired from playing tug-of-war with Eleanor, so I think I'll go stretch out on the rug in the study and catch a nap before we go upstairs to sleep for real.

Exploring all of this greenery is another great way to get some energy out!
