Obedience School

This past Tuesday, Scott took Steven and Glory to obedience school in Dudley. We were going to take both dogs, but it is expensive and the trainer recommended we bring the more obstinent dog to class, then use the homework exercises on both dogs. So, Glory is going to school! I didn't get to go this week, but Scott relayed that Steven did an excellent job as Glory's handler. Jessica, the trainer, was impressed too with Steven's work and maturity. :)

Scott is working with Gracie, Steven is working with Glory and we'll have two beautiful, trained doggies before long. And yes, all three of us are teachable, too, we're learning a lot! :)

A small smattering of summertime

Mmmm... so what has Steven been doing this summer? Well, let's see... he got a lesson in driving the truck, which is manual transmission "three on the tree"....
He's spent time with the hose and squirt guns and friends, it's been HOT here!
With his grandmommy, he went to Delaware to spend a week with his Uncle Mike, Aunt Bear, cousins Erick & Abby... and Bachan, too.While Steven was in Delaware, Scott and I built the roof and the walls on the treehouse so he'd have a surprise upon his return. Yes, he was suprised! :)
And the dogs keep growing bigger, too! Grace is laying down on the left and Glory is on the right. Steven started obedience training with Glory this past Tuesday... I'll post those photos next!
All in all, we're having a pretty good summer. God is blessing us in numerous ways, we feel His presence in our work and in our family time. He is so faithful!
