The Little Things Make Me Laugh

Last night, I was on my evening walk with Scout and Max. This is our little ritual. I have come to realize that no matter how much fetch we play in the yard, the dogs never really settle down until they've had a chance to get out and explore the neighborhood. We live in a neighborhood with great, old oak and pecan trees. Being the dogs that they are, they insist on sniffing everything vertical. So we are stopped next to one of these large oaks, and Max is nose down on one side of the tree. Scout meanwhile takes to sniffing around the opposite side. As they slowly approach one another, Max practically jumps out of his skin as he realizes there is something on the other side of the tree. You could actually see the wheels turning as he identifies said object, and processes the object as none other than... Scout. The look of both surprise and and relief on his face made me laugh out loud.

This is just one of those little moments that inspired me to start this blog. Enjoy and laugh along.
