That's one hot dog!

Ryan and I were shopping in Target the other day picking up some new things, when I discovered this hilarious pet costume! I suppose I should provide the back story...My friend Mary and I had recently been looking at the silly Halloween costumes they've come up with for kids, and couldn't believe that someone would actually put their child in a hot dog suit, so when I saw this hot dog pet costume, I just HAD to buy it for her! This her maltese/poodle, Caleb, donning his new look...and thinking "what is this crazy lady doing to me?!"

"Meg & Ryan Go To Chick-Fil-A"

Today we decided to have our very own "Harold and Kumar Go To White Castle" trip to the nearest Chick-Fil-A. Lucky for us, it was 3 hours away...perfect road trip! We hopped in the car around 9:45am and hit Interstate 81! Just like clockwork, we hit the Schuylkill Mall in Frackville, PA right at 12:45pm and were SO excited...and hungry (we forfeited breakfast and all food until we reached our destination)!
Fueling up before our big run!
In Binghamton, about 2 hours away from our destination!
Getting closer!
Surprise! There was construction in PA!
It's our exit and our mouths were watering!
Here's the mall that is home to the Frackville Chick-Fil-A!

Aaaaahhh!!! We made it!
Best meal ever!
Heading home with our milkshake and extra waffle fries for the road. What a great day!

Meet Phoebe!

We have another new addition to our family...and for those of you have been waiting for the past 4 years, sorry - it's not a baby!! We are frequent visitors of the FLSPCA and that's where we adopted our two beautiful kitties. About a week or so ago, we thought we'd stop in and see what they had for puppy adoption now that we have a house and yard for the puppy to play in. This little girl stole my heart the minute I saw her. They call her "Morgan" and she hasn't had the best life. She was found tied up to a bench outside the SPCA a few days prior to our visit, was very malnourished and her little ribs were sticking out like you wouldn't believe. Our research leads us to believe that she is a boxer-terrior mix. We knew right away that she needed a good loving home...and a new name to start her life over! So, this coming Friday we will be going to pick up "Phoebe" to share our home with her and give her lots of love. We'll update you on how the kitties react - it should be interesting!!

Girls Just Wanna Have Fun

Ryan was nice enough to plan a girls night out for me this Saturday. His friend Shaun from work and his wife Jess had us over for supper. Then Jess, myself and my friend Mary (she was really hungry - see photo! haha!) went to a girls only (no husbands, no kids) party. We had a great time and it was so nice to spend some time with other married women and just cut loose! I'm looking forward to the next night out!

End of Summer

The end of summer has arrived here in NY. It was pretty chilly today, but Ryan got one more ride in on the lake. I stayed on the dock, as per usual, and was freezing!! I didn't get the greatest pictures, but it's better than nothing! I think I had more fun sitting on the dock taking random scenery photos.

Naptime

I was cleaning the kitchen this morning when I noticed that it was very quiet around our house. I walked into the living room to find Ryan and our big kitty napping on the couch, so I had to sneak a picture! They looked so cute!

Fun with Uncle Ryan!

My nephew LOVES his Uncle Ryan and when he was at our house tonight, it was no different! Tonight Uncle Ryan did his very best to teach Tyler how to throw a frisbee. It took a lot of patience and while he didn't really catch on (since he is only 3), he had a great time trying to learn! I'm so glad that Ryan enjoys playing and I can't wait to have our own children some day so he can teach them all of his tricks!!
