Green Grass

Today was so nice outside, so while we waited for Dad to get home from work, Mom, Turk, Ophelia and I went outside to play in the green grass! The weather was just so pleasant after such long spells of rain we've been having recently. Then we had a couple days with hot hot temps, so today just seemed so perfect! Blue skies with beautiful white altocumulus clouds circling the horizon. Couldn't ask for a better day! Warning.....this post is photo heavy....

I was laying in the grass, on top of a blanket of course! But I just was itching to feel that grass with my toes, so I kicked off my socks and inched my way off the blanket slowly so my mom wouldn't notice and then started to tickle my toes with the green grass...This next photo looks like I am asking my dad to mow the lawn!! I would ask mom, but she tends to run over items..... *cough cough*
If I smile a lot at mom, she won't pay attention to the fact that I am playing with grass with my toes.....
Just look at my mom and me hanging out together!! This is a tradional photo my mom does with all of her friends...they get their heads close together and then she holds a camera out with her left hand and blindly takes the photo. Little do all of you know, this photo is actually photoshopped... She took two photos like this. In one, I was looking cute, but mom had hair blowing in her face. In the other one, mom looked cute, but I was looking off to the right at Turk. So being the Photoshop Master that I am....VOILA! I combined the two photos into one. You never would have known unless I had told you...

For a bit, Mom was throwing a tennis ball down the yard for the dogs. But Ophelia is way out of shape and pooped out after about three tosses. She came over to chill with me.
Even though the yard has several peony bushes, a late frost stunned the bushes. Mom was so mad at that frost, because she didn't get one lilac on her bushes either. Not a one!! And here is the lone peony..... Would that it a peoni?
Oh crap!!! I missed the bus again!!!!!! Ooops, probably shouldn't say crap. Not in front of the M-O-M. "Oh no!! I missed the bus again!" The bus barn our school district uses is just down the street from us, so everyday I get to watch millions of big yellow school buses drive past.... Well, maybe not millions, I tend to exagerate.
Being that BOTH of my parents are red heads, the odds of me joining the elite force of 4% of the world is pretty high. Go figure, only 4% of the world is red heads and the majority of my family is.... Both of my parents, my aunt, both of my uncles, my Grandma.... Well, I don't know if I can call myself a true red head yet. How about I say I have five red hairs on my head... This photo is not that attractive, is it? I have some hair up top, then a stripe with no hair, then a big bundle of red at the bottom. I hope that all fills in soon!!! Haha, I just noticed something in that photo.... My mom's foot is sticking out near the bottom, but it almost looks like from the angle it coule be my foot. Yup, I could pull off Crocs and flare jeans, couldn't I?
