We were invited to a barbecue today by our neighbor. She is a teacher for ESL (English as a Second Language) classes and the cook-out was for all her kids. These kids come from Mexico and Taiwan and The Philippines. What beautiful kids!
We brought the dogs and they had the best time. The dogs played fetch with the kids until they collapsed. At one point I looked over to see Greta sitting under the sprinkler while the kids ran back and forth under it!
Shubi hung out with the food. She is not a dumb girl. At one point she got a little hot and helped herself to someone’s ice water, which had carelessly been left on the ground, and drank the entire cup!
And dear Fritz, he was so good and so gentle with all the children. The kids couldn’t remember his name so they kept calling him, “Hey Whitey!” He didn’t care. He would come to them, sit and let them throw the ball for him.
And all I could think was, what great doggies we have!
Hot-dogs and hamburgers were had by all, (including the doggies) before we all sat eating ice cream sandwiches for dessert.
I’m so glad we went. It was great to meet all the kids, and to see how wonderfully the dogs got along with all the children.
A nice way to spend a hot summer day!

Sounds so nice and relaxing! We met Jan for lunch at IKEA and then were back here in the pool with my friend Katy from choir, Abby arrived, Abby was picked up by Mike, and then our friends came for dinner. It was busy, but I liked the day. I enjoyed the time in the pool!
Tomorrow is church and then a graduation party and last of all family night. My hubby starts his new job on Monday.
Sounds like you had a lovely time! 🙂 Hope you’re having a nice weekend.
Sounds like a fun day! I went out and bought a pool for the doggies. They went in it a little, enough to cool off!
