Saying that my sweet Ginger hates clothes is an understatement. She plain despises them. I've come to accept that fact and told myself not to waste money on dog clothes, but this raincoat was on sale at Target for 3 buck-a-roos so I had to get it. The process of Ginger wearing clothes goes like this: Put the jacket on her and then she stands there like a statue until it's removed. Literally. She won't walk, won't move her head, nothing. It's pretty funny.
I keep thinking that maybe she'll appreciate it when she has to walk outside in the rain. Maybe not.
Besides laughing at Ginger's crazy antics this weekend, we had a nice, relaxing couple of days. Wednesday-Saturday, we had dinner with a different couple each night. I have said it before and I will say it again. I AM SO THANKFUL FOR OUR FRIENDS. (Click here to read more about how much I prayed for other married couple friends. GOD ANSWERS PRAYER.)
Speaking of friends, my friend Amanda lives in the Memphis area and just recently started her own blog. Go check it out!
Like normal, we went riding on Sunday afternoon. It was such a beautiful day with the perfect temperature for riding. My family came with us that day and there were several times I was bent over from laughing so hard. I so appreciate family time!
I'm excited to be reading along with Bon's Book Club too. Have you seen it? The book for February comes in the mail today and I can't wait to start it! Click here to buy "Gone Girl." Let me know if you'll be reading this book also!
I hope you had a great weekend!
If you are memorizing Philippians with us, (see here for print out) here is this week's verse:
"And it is my prayer that your love may abound more and more, with knowledge and all discernment, so that you may approve what is excellent, and be so pure and blameless for the day of Christ."
Philippians 1:9-10 ESV
Lol, that's hilarious! My boy yorkie loves wearing clothing but my girl Lola can't stand it. She just freezes up and thinks she can't move lol!
ReplyDelete1. Ginger in that raincoat made me laugh out loud. So funny! Bella used to be like that but has mostly gotten used to it now. She has quite the collection of sweaters and coats :)
ReplyDelete2. THANK YOU for the shout out! You're so sweet.
3. We had fun Saturday! We really enjoy hanging out with other married couples, too. Let's do it again soon :)
I am laughing five minutes later at the pictures of Ginger! I can imagine our pup doing it and not giving up until that sucker came off!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a wonderful weekend! I love the photos of Ginger.

ReplyDeleteI was diagnosed as HEPATITIS B carrier in 2013 with fibrosis of the
liver already present. I started on antiviral medications which
reduced the viral load initially. After a couple of years the virus
became resistant. I started on HEPATITIS B Herbal treatment from
ULTIMATE LIFE CLINIC (www.ultimatelifeclinic.com) in March, 2020. Their
treatment totally reversed the virus. I did another blood test after
the 6 months long treatment and tested negative to the virus. Amazing
treatment! This treatment is a breakthrough for all HBV carriers.
