DOG PARK

We tried a new dog park on Sunday - Staring Lake Park in Eden Prairie. It was pretty big and we weren't sure if he was going to totally run off and then we'd have trouble finding him (even though it was fenced off). He found a few new fur friends and had a good time. He took off once, but we found him easily. People jsut love him - he always gets attention!

BIRD WATCHING

Sailor loves to watch the birds (and of course chase them if he can). Today he decided he was just going to sit under the bird feeders and water and have the birds just come to him!

Chewing on the Piggy

Sailor likes his squeaky piggy. He just kind of gums it with his teeth and doesn't really chew it up. He likes to jump on the bed with all his toys. Sometimes when I go in the bedroom there's like 5 toys laying there. He has 2 "toy boxes" around the house and knows where they are. He goes and gets his treats and toys and leaves them around the house like a kid. I'm always picking up after him.

It's my bed no matter where you put it

I was cleaning out the back of Todd's car and put Sailor's "Car bed" on the ground. He immediately an over and laid down on it like he was claiming it. He cold have laid down anywhere else on the grass, but he plopped down right on this. It was super cute.

Renaissance "Sauncer" Faire

We took Sailor to the Renaissance Faire - which is one of the largest in the country. We went with our friends Jen and Scott from Mankato and Lisa, who was in town visiting from Florida. We could hardly walk 5 steps before someone wanted to see and pet Sailor. He was such as magnet for people. It was funny to see the juxtaposition of modern clothes and the "Sauncers" dressed up like this pic with Todd in his t and shorts and "Gweneviere" and Merlin.

Also, your feet get so dirty. I thought this picture was so funny with Sailor's paws in the middle of it. Anyway, he had a good time getting attention, but it was a lot of work for us. We had fun though!

ONE YEAR OLD!

Sailor turned one year old on the 24th. We had Jana, Britt, Anita and Bridget over. Sailor got to eat "Frosty Paws" doggie ice cream. We remembered when he was "only" 36 lbs at 3 months old and ow he is 115 and still as sweet as ever! We love and adore him (and Osa too).

WHAT UP!

I got this hat from Deanna Favre's Foundation, so when I got home with it, Sailor tried to grab it. I ended up putting it on his head and he seemed to be okay with it. The world's next Hip Hop artist!

MY PASSENGER

I had to pick Sailor up from Day Care last week and realized I had a back seat full of stuff. So, I buckled him in on the front seat. I got so many looks from people as he was so big sitting there! Todd snapped these as I pulled in the driveway as he thought it looked pretty funny.

ON THE BOAT

Sailor is still not so great on the boat as he just wants to walk around and climb up on the seats and it's too small for him. We really need to get a pontoon! He looked so calm and sweet in these photos!

LULU, P AND SAILOR

Christine and Jim have a daughter named Lulu and she wanted to get in on the action with the dogs. Gotta had it to the little Seniorita, she can handle herself around the big boys!
