A Dog That Thinks She’s a Cat

On her perch.

Life Through My Phone

I’ve been all over the place lately. Physically and in my mind. This house hunt has definitely added a few gray hairs to my already graying head.

Here’s a glimpse of life lately. What would I do without my phone?

I’ve noticed that a lot of these photos are exercise related and food related..

Sigh.

Perhaps if I slackened on one the other would be more noticeable…

Hilaman Driving Range

Wing Stop. Our favorite twice a week weekly joint.

A cute outfit.

First time at the Crepevine. Yum!

Started the Couch to 5K Program.

So far so good, 2 weeks down 7 to go!

A lot of homemade salads.

Celebrating National Ice Cream Month at work. One scoop is better than two, right?

Started a new book. Giving the Kindle a break since I found this one cheap at Goodwill and had wanted to read it.

Got my first Birchbox.

 

Visited my Dad at work.

Cleaned up dead stuffed animals.

Where’s Moosey?!

There she is!

New earrings.

 

Curly haired Summer days.

My sweet babies.

Got my nails done. Couldn’t bear to look at my badly bitten ones any longer.

More salads…

Lot shopping. Where’s Waldo David?

Frisbee golf with the little brother.

More Driving Range fun.

Loving life!

6 Months

Abbigail is 6 months old already. I feel like I was just shooting her in her Momma’s belly! She is just too much cuteness to handle!

I love Chelsy’s idea to use a watermelon prop. So perfect for a Summer shoot!

I think this one is my very favorite of the bunch!

 

Must Love Dogs

Anyone who knows us knows that we are dog lovers. Maybe a little too much (although I really don’t think there is such a thing).

Since I’ve been doing my videos lately David decided he wanted to make one for Remi. Our first “baby”. We seriously love him to death. Of course we love Moose too, but Remi’s been with us through a lot of ups and downs in his (almost) 3 little years of life. He’s brought us a lot of laughs and was my shoulder to cry on last year when it was just me and him. I’ll forever be grateful to my sweet boy.

We love you bud Thanks for being the best dog ever, we know you’ll make a great “big brother” to your two legged siblings some day!

His 3rd birthday is next month so this can also be considered an early birthday tribute

Doggy things:

Even though it makes me cry…some things to note about dogs:

1. My life is likely to last 10 to 15 years. Any separation from you will be painful, remember that before you get me.

2. Give me time to understand what you want of me.

3. Place your trust in me- it is crucial to my well being.

4. Do not be angry at me for long, and do not lock me up as punishment.

5. You have your work, your entertainment,and your friends. I only have you.

6. Talk to me sometimes. Even if I don't understands your words, I understand your voice when it is speaking to me.

7. Be aware that how ever you treat me, I will never forget.

8. Remember before you hit me that I have teeth that could easily hurt you, but I choose not to bite you because I love you.

9. Before you scold me for being uncooperative, obstinate, or lazy, ask yourself if something might be bothering me. Perhaps I might not be getting the right food, or I have been out to long, or my heart is getting too old and weak.

10. Take care of me when I get old; you too will grow old. Go with me on difficult journeys. Never say: "I cannot bear to watch" or "Let it happen in my absence." Everything is easier for me if you are there, even my death. Remember that I love you.

Side Braid

I don’t know that “perfected” is the best word to describe this side French braid, but it’s the first one I’ve been able to successfully finish and be ok with wearing it out in public. I think I’ve finally figured out this whole French braid thing! Thank you YOUTUBE! It’s seriously given me a challenge. Now I just need to practice a lot more.

For those of you that can French braid easy peasy, I envy you!

 

Hope you’re having a fabulous weekend!
