Suprise!




Dad came to visit me for my birthday! For a suprise for him, me and Mom decided to get him tickets to the Yankees game to see a game since this is the last season they will play in this stadium. What a adventure. 7 hours on the bus later we arrived in New York and saw about two hours of the game before we had to catch our bus home. He loved it! Although we didn't get to spend a lot of time there, it is a birthday I will never forget!

He passed!



Yes, you can all go ahead and laugh at me now! I have turned into one of those dog owners that treat their dog like their children! I used to make fun of them, but now I am one of them! I see how easily it can happen, when you don't have children, they tend to become your children. Chance was put in puppy kindergarten to learn a thing or two about obedience. From day one the trainer was very impressed about how well he behaved for being in the shelter since a little puppy! He was so good some weeks I had to wake him up from his nap on the floor to participate! Well.. it was his last week and he passed! ( You know I am making this as cheesy as possible so you can all mock me!)He is such a good boy!

Girls night out...





So this girls night out was actually our first night out here in VA. So needless to say I have been really behind in my blogging. This was way back in June but thought I would post anyway, because of the experience we had. We went to this great dinner downtown and after wanted to go to a fun place and just hang out and talk. The woman at the restaurant told us to check out this lounge.. it was like an old "speakeasy lounge." She told us to look for the blue light by the door and that would be the place. Well we head down this dark road, and see this blue light, surely this cannot be the place to go. There is not another person in site... how do we get in there? Where is the lounge? It looks like a regular apartment door, but with a blue light. I am not going anywhere near it.. but my friend Sasha decides to go up and knock. She knocks.. then we hear heavy footsteps coming down the stairs.. we think oh great we just woke someone up... this lady opens this little sliding peek hole door on the front of the door, and about makes us pee our pants! We go upstairs and it ends up being a lounge in an old apartment. It was actually really neat. Guess it does not sound as bizarre as it actually ended up being, one of those instances that I guess you had to be there.
