A Boy And Girl

When I was recently visiting my family in Kentucky, my 2 youngest nephews and I spent an awesome afternoon watching funny animal videos on my iPad. Bizzle eats some dunkers was definitely the crowd favorite, so I attempted to make my own movie with Finn for my nephew Avery’s birthday. Happy Birthday Avery and Happy [...]

We are still recovering from all the celebrations, but here’s a couple images from my phone that sum things up pretty nicely: Hope everyone had a great Christmas!

Today was perfect weather for getting our Christmas tree! We picked a Frasier fir, noticeably “leaner” than our tree last year. As always, I get embarrassingly excited about beloved traditions… I’m totally in love with the vintage ornaments I scored for $2 a pack at the Kutztown flea market I went to with my sisters [...]

Worth noting this week: -I have a very patient dog. Do you like my new cowl? It was a birthday present from my friend Debbie, who brought it all the way from the United Kingdom! I’m just sharing because pit bulls need to stay warm, afterall. -My sisters are coming next week! They decided last [...]

Today is cold and damp, and I thought it’d be a great time to try out my new (thrifted) poncho! I’m not super into ponchos but I love that it’s basically like wearing a blanket. As soon as I saw this one, I knew it was borderline crazy person. But I figured hey, neon’s sort [...]

When Josh and I started looking for a dog, I really didn’t want one. Fortunately, we didn’t get a dog, we got a puppy, and he was very sleepy. The first few nights of having him, I’d get up with him 4 or 5 times a night to take him outside when he whined in [...]

In an effort to blog more regularly, I decided to start a series called “Things Worth Noting” Thursdays. One of my favorite bloggers has a series called “Bits Of My Weekend” and another favorite posts every so often on things she’s learned that week. I really enjoy those features so I thought I’d try something [...]

Last night I took some video of Finn biting the bubbles we bought for him when we were in Philly. They are peach flavored and hold their shape for a while- much longer than Finn’s attention span. Did you know Josh originally wanted a bulldog? One of the really ugly, tough looking ones? I may [...]

Josh and I spent last weekend in Philly, celebrating our one year anniversary. We did some shopping and later met friends for an incredible dinner at Vetri. We were really missing our puppy after a while so we stopped into Doggie Style, to pick up some goodies for Finn. Finn loves stuffed toys, but he [...]

Finnegan has always been afraid of water. Not just dislike, I’m talking pure frozen in-place, terror of water. From refusing to go outside during rain to having to be dragged on the grass afterwards when it’s wet. And I feel partly to blame. When I first bathed him after bringing him home from the shelter, [...]
