Lillian's First Halloween

We had one rotten dog on our hands this weekend... tearing up the porch (again), pinning down and injuring a poor bird, misbehaving for professional photos, and going after the air conditioner hose (again). It definitely reinforced that we need to get on training classes ASAP, and that she's not thankful for what she has. ;) Spoiled little thing. And now we move on to shopping for heaters for the porch for her... the $$ spending never ends on this thing. I guess we'd better get used to it!

For Halloween, I got her the traditional pumpkin costume. She hated it - she kept trying to shake out of it. Oh well, at least we tried! Right now, she's running around and whining every time we have to shut her in the office to pass out candy.

But we sure do still love her!

Glamping 2011

Last weekend, we went "glamping" with my co-workers. Despite a night of little sleep, it was a great time of caving, chatting, and sitting around the fire.

We call it "glamping" because we had a house right next to us and some modern-day essentials.

It was Lily's first time camping, too. Unfortunately, she had to stay in her crate most of the time because we were afraid she'd run off, but she did great. Another dog was there so she got some play-time in.

Eric even bought a new tent for the event, which ended up being completely dwarfed by the 8+ person tents around us. In the end, I think I would have preferred to have that and air matresses like everyone else...sleeping on sloped, hard ground with a flat pillow wasn't exactly comfortable. ;)

Work work work

All day and night long. That's sure what life has been like for me for the past week and a half. Hoping for a break this weekend!

We have a lot to blog about...if all goes well maybe we can update the blog this weekend. Until then, I'll be doing stuff like this:
