A Good Trip

Ray had a very good time while visiting his family.

He helped Grandpa in the garden.


He slept on Nannie's couch.


 He went running with Aunt Yuko.

He gave a foot massage to his favorite cousin, Hannah.


He helped his Uncle John cook shrimp.


He got kisses...


...hugs...



...and a head massage from Hannah...




He got bellyrubs from Grandpa.



 He enjoyed dinner with the family...



...spent some quality time with his mom...

...and had a little alone time in the back of the car.


He was fussed-over by two of his favorite people.

All in all, Ray had a wonderful trip.



And after we left, he was missed very much by Grandpa and Nannie.

  1. Gosh - how did you get Ray to leave with you? I bet he LOVED all that attention!

    Poor Grandpa and Nannie - they look disgruntled over Ray's departure. :)

    1. Like every vacation, no matter how much fun you have, it's always nice to get back to your routine. Ray slept all the way home, then all the next day. All that attention, and chasing Hannah around the yard because she's a bone-stealer, wears a body out.

  2. Love the pics of Ray and his family - time with Grandpa and Nannie is a precious gift. Hannah doesn't seem to have held a grudge against the hungry hound for the nibbled cookie :)

    I'm glad he had a nice trip!

    1. It's such a pleasure seeing how much Hannah loves the blind dog. Actually, she's grown up with him. When we got him, they were the same height.

  3. So glad that Ray had a good trip (and you too). He looks like he was thoroughly spoiled and enjoyed it very much! I feel for Grandpa and Nannie. They look a little sad.

    1. I have no trouble getting Ray to travel to S.C. He knows he's going to see all of his favorite people. AND he gets to run around Grandpa's HUGE yard.

  5. What did Raymondo make of the head massage? And what did Hannah make of the exclusively (p)autographed cookie?

    1. Anything that Hannah does to Ray is OK by him. She can do no wrong. He never moved while the massager was being deployed on his noggin.

      Hannah looked a bit askance at the cookie. But when her Aunt Kathy explained how Ray took a bite and that there was just a little dog spit on it and that she could still eat it, Hannah gave a cheeky grin and took it. We all know it ended up in the trash. (Hannah has a very good sense of humor and is very smart. She is totally on to her Aunt Kathy, the troublemaker.)
