Bank Holiday Babes

Howdy People -

So we had a bank holiday weekend last weekend we had a choice to make.   We could sit around looking at each other....

Or we could head to Kilkenny to see the horse fair...

Untitled


After talking to Daddy we decided on the latter!

Untitled


So I told Mom our choice... "Neeiigh Mom horses it is!"

Untitled


Lulu decided that we'd need to be in full health so she gave me a check up.  First she checked my blood pressure...  (good thing she didn't check my belly pressure as it may have been on "bursting" mode!)

Untitled

Then she looked into my ears and checked my temperature...

Untitled

Then she made me listen to my heart I told her I was all good!

Untitled

She determined that I was not good and needed a shot!  I said "No Way Jose Lulu"  I mean a lil sister will only go so far!   She ignored me and gave me one anyway... sigh.

Untitled


After getting the bill of full health Lulu took a photo of Mom & I on our way out the door...

Untitled

We stopped on our way down to have a bit of lunch or in my case as Lulu says "bobos".   While there the finalist for the Rose of Tralee festival were all coming out of the hotel to their competition.  Daddy took Lu over to show her the girls in their "Cinderella" dresses.... he didn't take me.... may need to work on this gut of mine :-)

When we arrived down in Kilkenny Lulu had to have a word with the judges to make sure all was in order for the driving trials.

Untitled

We had a good time watching the horses go by...

Untitled

But the HIGHLIGHT of the day...and I mean H-I-G-H-L-I-G-H-T was watching the horses get their hair done!  Lulu and I couldn't believe it our two favorite things combined... "Bobbins aka Hairbands" and Horses.   Lulu watched for a good 20 minutes!

Untitled

Lulu also met a gigantic dog but I was too afraid to go near, I mean come on even with these chunky thighs that dog must be billion times my size!

Untitled


Lulu decided that she wanted to run through the fields like a horsey...

Untitled

But then she told us she needed to have her hair done!

Untitled

So before we left Lulu wanted to get a good photo of us all... we all smiled nicely and her editing skills were brilliant... "Make sure to only get the cute ones in the picture Lulu!"

Untitled


We all went back to Nana & Grandad's house to chill out and Lulu insisted on getting her hair done just like the horses...

Untitled

Finally we headed back home to have a picnic outside or so I am told as I seem to have missed the picnic... although Mom says we didn't go far as I was snoozin.

Untitled


So I may have been catching up on my beauty sleep but at least I was good.  I cannot say the same for Stella.  Unfortunately Stella was not behaving as was put into the "Thinking Chair".   

Untitled

She didn't look too sad, sort of like Lulu - she talks about the "Thinking Chair" as if it an accomplishment if she gets to sit in it. 

Untitled
What a great weekend people!   Now off to another week hanging with Mom going places!

Love, Janey
