A missed moment

March 19, 2024 by Anna

I’ve been sitting on this fun video for a perfect quick blog on a busy meeting day. Burrito brings out all his silliness when he plays with his Jolly Ball!  We’ve seen countless moments like this one in the last few months since he got this new toy.

    Bubba finds so much joy in everything! I wonder if he actually ever gets upset about anything.

    If Jolly Ball ever needs a product tester, Burrito is the perfect guy for the job!

    I love it!
    Can we ask the Jolly Ball people to make one slightly bigger and put a handle on it?:wink:

      Hi Linda! Jolly balls do come in different sizes AND some have handles (horses and donkeys love them too, as do dogs!) Remember the video of Mr. B playing with one after the Comfort & Joy auction? He was dragging it around by the handle looking quite pleased with himself. I believe by the end of the video the ball was looking a little bit deflated! Oh Burrito!

        Hi Kathleen,
        I thought it was the same one…I really want him to have a hippity hop or close to it in size. He’s tryinfg to sit on it and bounc, and the lack of that handle is complicating it. Either way, I’m glad he’s as happy with it as can be!

    Burrito and his bouncy ball is pure joy!
    Never. Gets. Old. (Watching him bounce or Burrito himself)

    Oh Anna thank you. These are definitely moments not to be missed. Thank you so much for sharing this. I laughed out loud. He’s such a sweet guy and he looks so happy bouncing on the Jolly ball with another toy in his mouth!!! Love this so much:)

    Bubba never fails to make me laugh. Whether he’s playing with friends or making his own fun, he is absolutely the best…..like so many other followers, I love ANY blog that let’s us into his goofy antics.

    Nothing beats a boy and his ball! Glad to see Bubbie is still getting plenty of mileage out of that jolly ball! He definitely keeps himself (and all of us) entertained.

    It looks like he was getting a good massage.:heart_eyes:
