PRE-4th Pool Party

 


Splish Splash, I was getting in the pool
Splish Splash acting like fool
Long about a the 4th of July
Rub a dub, getting in the big pool.
We were splishin and a splashin
We were splishin and a splahin.
Long about the 4th of July.
I swam over to daddy and got water in my eye!
He said do what I do, kick your feet, keep your face out of the water.
now wave your paws and everyone will give you apaws!
We were havin a splashtastic Time

Mama the pawparazzi  said from the side of the pool, 
Beau, if in doubt, swim out!
If there is a will, there is a wave,
the wetter the better.


Before you ask, NOPE! I will not get in the pool. Mama PUT Me in with her PICMONKEY... Butt Daddy was in the pool. Daddy loves to swim, he was on a swim team in his youth and in his UNyouth he was on a masters swim team for a few years. He swims every day of the year, even in winter. And 5 days a week for 20 years, he swam 1000 meters a day, now he swims 1000 meters three days a week. He goes to the YMCA and leaves me home alone... on the other days he is in this pool

 Mama said she had to take photos because the water looked so pretty and so did Daddy's wet hair.

I agree, the water and the wet hair are beautiful, all shimmering in the sun. Beau, you must have had a traumatic water experience sometime in your life.

You read my mind because I was wondering if Beau really got in or if you edited him into the pool. Duke and Bob would have gotten along well. They could have swam together every day.

Hello,

Cute post and song. I am surprised Beau, you do not like to swim.
You could have fun swimming with your Dad.
HUGS, have a happy day!

Beau, you should jump in! You would have so much fun with your daddy in the pool. At least mama can trick us into thinking you're in there with him. :D

You might like a real swim with your Dad Beau!

It's funny, Beau, how hyoomons think that all dogs should swim. All dogs CAN swim, but a lot of dogs don't WANT to swim. My angel Jade was one of those. I did once get her in the water. Once. She didn't even like walking on wet grass to go do bidness!!! So let mama work her magic (and the photos are lovely), but you stand your ground gawjuss boy! Hugs and wags, YAM-aunty xxx

I didn't know that about your daddy, Beau! No wonder he's so fit and trim.
That first image, your pool looks SO inviting. (And I don't even enjoy pools!) And honestly, it looks like momma caught you mid-dive!

We didn't think you would actually be in the pool, Beau. Your splish splash poem is great.

Oh Beau I was tricked I thought you finally made it in the pool!

Cinnamon loves to swim-in the river or a lake, but refused to swim in my sister's pool. Maybe Beau is like that.
I'm not surprised you don't get to hear our news down where you are. I see more Canadian news on US channels that I used too, but still, little that happens up here is seen down there.

I didn't think he was in the pool with dad! I miss our pool. I would be out there everyday exercising.

Hootin Anni said...

Aww, we thought you really got in the pool by yourself and went swimming. Well, we wouldn't have either, so don't feel bad. Your Dad's hair gets real curly in the water, doesn't it? XOXX Xena and Lucy
