COON DOG DAY

This was Eliza's first Coon Dog Day and Spencer's fourth. We started the day by going to the pancake breakfast at the firehouse with Andre. It was, of course, very yummy. Then we went downtown to look around and play on the playground. We ended up seeing several people from home that we never see there. Funny how that works. next came the parade, and then home for naps. Later we went to se the coon dogs treeing. It took them a long time to get things rolling, so we got bored waiting on everything and did not stay very long. We got to end the day with songs from Papa James around the fire.

We all got to watch the parade




I went to go look for big Spencer after he left to go put Spencer down for a nap, and this is what I found. Where is Spencer?


Oh, he is under the pillows, of course.


Let's go watch some coon dogs treeing!


I'm so happy because Papa James talked Mommy into letting me get out of bed and stay up late.


What a sight!


I can do this too.
