At a recent family gathering everyone decided that it was finally cool enough to play a little basketball. Often Steve and Chris go out in the dark and play. Whenever anyone plays basketball at the house and the weiners get out Emma goes berserk making this weird wheezing sounds while chasing the ball and Oskar goes berserk trying to get hold of the ball so he can push it around with his nose.

...and now the dogs and Julia have to fight it out over possession of the ball.

Julia got kind of miffed that the dogs got more play time then she did...

So Steve gathered them up and put them inside...

Although everyone gathered to watch a big competition...

Nothing much happened except with Julia, Greg and Chris...

...but at one point the play must have gotten a little rowdy because look what happened ! ! !

oh, no, obviously she swallowed the ball...so that kind of wrapped things up and Megan and Julia just went off to play with the little jingling turtle instead...

and then, even though everyone else went inside, Julia stayed out to practice...

take me home, please
