Lucky!!!

Look who came to visit! :) Lucky is the neighbors dog. He is a total sweetheart and I believe he is 6 years old now but really acts like a 2 year old dog. Full of energy and obviously some mischief too! So about a week and a half ago (yes, when the weather was actually nice!) Lucky decided there were more entertaining things on the other side of the fence. Actually what I really think he is interested in is something behind the fence he can't see through.....

But the neighbors weren't home that night and we were out in the backyard doing some weeding and Lucky felt he needed some company. So, he joined us.


The kids had fun with him....Andy was a little unimpressed when he peed right were Andy was weeding! Later on, when the neighbors came home, they were highly unimpressed at Lucky's antics. They immediately put up some wood to block his path while we went inside to get the boys ready for bed. About 45 minutes later, as Andy was reading bedtime stories, I had run downstairs for something and noticed that whatever the neighbors had done to keep Lucky contained, had not worked. He was at my back door again, probably looking for the cats! (he had seen them there earlier!) I had to laugh and then told him to go back home. The next day, the neighbors did some more work on keeping him contained and we haven't seen him in our backyard since. We actually don't mind, but the owners are worried that if he figures too much out (like jumping the fence!) then he will get into the front yard as well and then there will be trouble. I don't blame them but it was fun while it lasted! ;)
