It's been a busy, busy day and I think we pretty much went non-stop - besides the small break trying to get Nellie down for a nap. First up was the Mid-America Boston Terrier Birthday Bash that we go to every year. It was well attended this year and perfect weather. With 2 dogs and 2 little kids, my sister and I had our hands full. Daddy ran sound & DJ'd the event, but he was able to help watch "the kids" some. We would leave him with a dog or child and take the other ones around. Charlie (all black dog) entered the tricks contest, but then wouldn't stand or dance. It was okay though, there were 3 other dogs there that danced the same anyways. Charlie decided to shake hands instead - knew there was no way I would get him to army crawl or play dead in the grass. At nearly the last minute, I decided to buy a few raffle tickets and had B-Bee decide which buckets (had a bucket for each prize) to put them into. We ended up winning 2 prizes! B-Bee was super happy when I handed him the Boston Terrier sculpture and I love the watercolor print we won. As you can see here (above) when all was said & done, we all loaded back into the car....exhausted but still eager to watch out the window for a few blocks.
After an afternoon of yardwork, deck deconstruction, gardening & playing, we decided to treat ourselves at our favorite Indian restaurant. MmmmMmmm.... they even had Tibetan Momos on the buffet, though they weren't spicy like they are if you order them off the menu.
In 2 days my parents will be here.... The thought of getting the basement cleaned for them to stay with us and rebuilding the deck (with their help) is too much for my exhausted mind to think about right now.
Hope your weekend is as wonderful as ours has been!
