How is Blackie?

Blackie, our daughters dog, has been staying with us.  We picked him up from Laura on Friday night.  Sunday morning, Laura texted and asked how he was doing.  I was tempted to reply 'Still kicking' as that is the type of answer I get from her when she is watching my chickens and I ask how they are doing.  However, I decided to be the bigger person here and write a blog post in answer to her question.

Here is Blackie with Grandma.  

Here is Blackie with Uncle Don.
Uncle Don was enjoying a conversation with Mike and the next thing I
know Blackie is on his lap.  

I managed to get a picture without Blackie in it.
This is Uncle Don and Aunt Della enjoying the spring weather at the farm.
They supposedly came out to see the new house but I
think they heard Blackie was visiting.  

Here is Blackie with Mike later that evening.
This was after we pulled Blackie out of Don and Della's car.
Apparently he wanted to go home with them.
