Memorial Day Weekend

We had a long and tiring weekend, lots of fun and glad to be home!

Saturday we went to Lake Wales for hunt training, Jen and Paul H. went out of their way to work with us and help us out, thanks so much guys! Lady got her first opportunity to chase Mark on an ATV...that was interesting. She was so upset that he was leaving her that she ran along side it barking nonstop for him to get down. When he stopped (so as not to run her over), she tried to climb up on the seat with him. After a few trips around the lake she figured it out for the most part, and ran ahead with Buffy and Shooter, who were probably wondering what all the commotion was about. Looks like we're going to have to try to run her on horseback before we go horseback riding with the dogs at Primland this year, or we'll probably have the same result! Jen let me use her SLR camera to play around and take some pictures of Lady running, we are in the market for one now so it was neat to get to use all of the features.

After training we headed up to visit my parents for the weekend. The first day Mark met my parents was in 2001 when he came home for our Memorial Day BBQ, so the tradition continues! We ate a lot of good food and had a great time, Lady especially--she loves my parent's backyard! I added a picture to the "Pictures" page under Miscellaneous. :)

15 more days until Mark heads up to Indiana to pick up Jake, we can't wait!
