Every summer, our church holds a service in the park followed by a picnic lunch. This year, a special 'Blessing of the Pets' was held prior to the service. Mark & I took Oscar to the park early so that he could get in a good walk, look for squirrels, and take a dip in the creek--all of which he enjoyed immensely. I really enjoyed the Pet Blessing and appreciate the pastors' willingness to do this. Oscar got to stay for the church service in the park & the picnic, because he behaved reasonably well--not as well as I had hoped but certainly better than I expected (he barked here and there, but never too long or too loud at one stretch!)
The service was lovely and we enjoyed visiting with friends during the picnic. I don't think Oscar knew how much being blessed & having to be quiet would take out of him--he has slept ever since we got home!
Now we're on to the work week and the month of July.
