Sam vs Skunk

Yesterday we spent a ton of time tending to the yard and house. By dinner time we were hitting the garden. Me and Ash were weeding and Kaitlyn was playing, Kyle was attempting to keep Kami occupied. We all headed around the house for just a few minutes. And when we turned back to the garden we saw a baby skunk running right through the middle. I guess the fence holes are too big! The dogs of course went running right over. Sam picked that skunk up right in his mouth and he sprayed!!! It was so funny! Sam dropped the skunk and then started frothing at the mouth. He was pawing at his nose and rubbing it on the ground! We laughed so hard. That skunk ran under the lawn mower and we were able to get rid of it. Sam doesn't smell too bad considering. Daisy was smart enough to stay away. She has already been banished from the house for skunk spray, I think she may have learned. Sam did not. He was still trying to get that skunk under the mower even after being nailed in the mouth. It was quite the eventful evening. I am left wondering where the baby brothers and sisters are? The mom got hit a couple of days ago, but Kyle said "if there is one, there has to be more". At least they aren't on the front deck this time! Skunk 1, Sam 0.
I took this picture a few days ago. Kyle brought me some roses from one of the bushes out in the yard. Kaitlyn promptly tore all the petals off!
