This dog is the funniest thing. Each night, every night without fail, he does what we like to call "Hot Laps!" He starts running all over the camper, jumping off of furniture, crawling across the back of the sofa. He runs in to mine and Joe's bedroom, to Joe's side of the bed, onto the bed, and flies off! He can literally make it almost half way across the camper, which I know doesn't sound like far, but coming from a bed 3.5 feet off of the ground, he travels. . .flies about 6 feet into the middle of the kitchen! He does this over and over. He gets more excited and worked up if we clap our hands and Joe will say "get it, get it, get it!" He speeds even faster! So here is a picture I took of him last night doing his "Hot Laps" flying through the camper! Oh, and please overlook all the shoes in the floor, I make everybody take shoes off when they enter and during hotlaps, they kind of get tossed to and fro!
And a quick update on the family: Joe is loving his job in LaGrange, well, I guess as much as you can love work! There are lots of people in the park we are in that are on the KIA job, but none who work with him.
Chase has all of his necessary information into LaGrange College which is a private, Methodist supported college. He is excited about his future and facing the world! He loves his job and spends most of his time there.
Coy is loving LaGrange. He has so many kids around his age at the water park at our campground. He has been working picking up balls at the batting cages, picking up trash in the campground and he works the "skate shop" when the skating rink is open. He makes $10 a night at the skating rink! Forty dollars is big bucks for a twelve year old, I guess. He is really one cool kid!
Caden has a few friends in the park as well. There is a little boy who is Hispanic and the sweetest thing, lives in front of us. Caden can't wait to get out in the mornings to play. He also has spent lots of time at the pool. He is swimming confidently without swimmies and is even turning summersaults under the water! He is really impressive. He loves the slides at the water park!
Without going into too much detail, I will be in Chattanooga this weekend for my second surgical procedure this summer. If this one is unsuccessful, I will be having a hysterectomy soon. So, besides recovering from surgeries, I have been spending lots of time at the pool. I am sporting quite the summer glow!
Look at that cute little watermelon!
