Well, beer does help me...

It has been miserably hot here the past few days. Like 100 degrees hot. And humid. And while there is a nice breeze, 100 is just hot. So, we have been using our pool quite a lot.


Lola was not a fan of the pool. She was scared of the rafts, hated the statue (our lovely lady) but if you could catch her and get her into the pool, she would technically swim, but you know, fight or flight mentality and all that I guess.

Until today.

Jeff gave Lola a little liquid courage to calm her fears and then stuck her on a raft while we were cooling off this afternoon. She. Loved. It. She swam like crazy, and would climb BACK into the pool after we put her out! I am so excited to have a swimming dog.

We are grilling out tonight (chicken, corn and zucchini) and watching a movie. I love these kinds of nights and look forward to doing this next year with our little boy :)
