Gratitude 22 & 23

Today, we had our dog picnic.  That's right, a dog picnic.  Dh is the vice-president of our breed club and once a year, we host a "fun day".  We get to do work with the dogs (since they are hunting dogs, it's birdwork and, this year, swimming since the hosts had a pond).  Before we had Pk, we were pretty seriously into the whole "dog thing" - we showed, we did field and I did obedience pretty seriously.  Since Pk was born, we haven't had the time or the money.  It was nice to get out there today with people we don't see very often and share a nice meal and some companionship.  And hey, God wanted us to see some corn (I pasted the address into google maps to get directions and it decided to change the sideroad number and we ended up almost an hour late, driving around in farm country trying to find the property).  Thank goodness for a brother who answers his phone and has internet access.
