Ethel's Play Date with Marley & Jack

One morning after taking Madison to school,

Jen brought Ethel over to have a Play Date

with the Kids...Marley & Jack.

This would be the first time Ethel had ever

been anywhere without her

Mom, Dad or Madison.

Marley & Jack took very well to Ethel

being in their private space,

"the back yard".

Ethel is only 4 months old and she is

already bigger then full grown

Marley & Jack.

They played and played, but of course

when AJ was outside they congregated

around him.

I had put some refreshments (dog kibbles,

dog bones, dehydrated duck and popcorn)

out in a pan on the step. They all took

their turn nibbling and then got a drink of

cold drink water out of the

Big Blue Bucket.

There was alot of Butt Smelling that day.

By late afternoon Ethel, still just a Baby,
was getting tired.
Marley & Jack could have gone on
for a few more hours. But I decided to
bring them in for a rest.

Marley hit the sofa,
Jack took claim on AJ's bed
and Ethel barley got past the back
door's threshold and she slept.....

and slept and slept! All afternoon.
We actually had to walk around her
and she never moved a muscle!
Jen called that evening after Wade
had picked up the Girls,
Madison and Ethel.
Jen said Ethel had told her she had
a Wonderful Day. Ethel said the Kids
were fun to play with, the food was great
and she felt right at home and very loved
by her
Mimi & Grampy, (AKA AJ & ME).
