We went to my parents house for a barbeque today. They have a swimming pool and although Esme has been there pretty much once a week since we got her in January, she has never been in their yard much, so she has never had much exposure to their pool. Today, she bounced out to the backyard and walked RIGHT INTO the pool. It was like she didn't even know it was there. My husband (the hero) took off running accross the yard, and jumped in to save her with his clothes and sneakers on! Obviously, Esme could swim... but he said that he jumped in because he thought that her hair would weigh her down and she would drown!
We changed into our swimsuits and Esme intentionally jumped in the pool some more. It was fun to watch her swim.
My dad barbequed ribs and if Esme could speak English, she would say that the VERY BEST part of her day was when she got to chew on her first rib bone. It was cute because my mom has two pomeranians and the three of them chewed on their bones side by side. I WISH I would have brought my camera! My sister took pictures, but her camera is not digital, so I have to wait for her to develop them to scan it in and share with you guys.
Anyhow, we got home, Esme got her bath and below is a picture of what is presently happening in my living room.
