Our Dog Gone Trip to Nashville IN

As most of you know, my hubby and I took three, yes count them three dogs on a short vacation. We have always left them at home and missed them very much. So this time we took them with us. We did not miss them! LOL

In the future to let you know how it went, they will not be going with us. The less of two evils is missing them. We really can't complain they were good but it was very busy with them. They are use to a fenced in backyard and coming and going as they please. The four hour drive in the car was very unconfortable, because they would not sit in the back seat. They would cry and cry and I can't have my "baby" crying. LOL. Here's the pictures of them and us on the trip. Try not to dying laughing. And I promise, we are "normal" adults.

This is our biggest baby, Bailey. Roger and I will be married five years July 6th. I got Bailey for my wedding gift. He has the first dog syndrome. He thinks our world should revolve around him. Just ask him...

Bailey is on the left and Roscoe, bling-bling , is on the right. We got Roscoe six months after Bailey. Roscoe is our little man and he knows he's a BIG dog. Just ask him...

This is our baby girl, Alison. She's a two year old Schnawzer, but she refuses to fold her ears. Most people think she's a Scottie, but she's not. She loves us dearly and we her. She is the princess. Just ask her...

I saved the best for last, Bailey in a cart at the Antique mall and all three with dear hubby in Nashville.

That's all folks.

Happy First Day of Summer!

Well it's the longest day of the year. Hubby and I celebrated in style. We went to the Farmer's Market, hung out in the backyard, grilled steak, ate strawberry shortcake and went for a long bike ride. It was a great day.

We are back from Little Nashville, IN with the three monst- oops, no, I mean CUTE dogs. It was very trying on the first day. The second day went better, but Alison was very homesick and I was sick for her to be home... We had a good time, but we will not be taking them in the future. You can bet on that! LOL. They had to go everywhere with us, because they would not be quiet in the hotel room. They went shopping in Nashville and they went with us Antique shopping. That was quite a sight, two of them in the stroller and one in a shopping cart. Photos to come, as dear hubby did not pack the digital. I know I couldn't believe it either... What's a wife to do?

We purchased so great thing and I'll get those pics. ASAP.

P.S. The picture at the top of this post is an old post card I scanned. Please help yourself to the image if you wish.

Our New Puppy Buggy

Well I'm not sure I should share this, but my husband and I are going out of town for three nights. We're going to Southern IN, to Little Nashville, in Brown County. It's a very popular destination in the fall because there are so many trees that turn beautiful colors. There's tons to do, little shops, flea markets, antique malls, winery, and a state park. We had planned to take our two Maltese dogs, Bailey and Roscoe. They are very social and most importantly portable. Less than ten pounds per pet "kid". We were going to leave our 15 lbs. Schnauzer with my step-son. Alison would have missed us and we her, but three dogs on vacation come on... where's the sanity and relaxation in that?
Stop, halt! The plans have changed, dear hubby wants to take Alison too. Three flippin dogs in one car for four hours and in a tiny hotel room. Yikes. Not to mention he does not want to leave them in the room nor the car, me neither, but what are we going to do? Purchase a doggy buggy... We did, we're going and here it is. Pictures to follow after our trip on Wed of the freaky family. Have a great weekend. Trudi M.


P.S. If your interested in one, we got it on Ebay. Great price, great service. (LOL)

It's Friday, So Sad...

Well it's Friday and I don't have our bedroom painted. I painted the louver doors first, and that took me three hours and then I was burned out. Taped and primed the areas I needed to, but haven't taken the plunge to paint. I'm painting the room a light chambray blue and I so hope I like it. I've looked at pictures and think I will, but you never know. I'm sad because my Spring Break is almost over and it's been crummy weather. We may break our area's record for the most snow in April!! Can you believe it? On the bright side I met a friend for coffee today and did some thrift shopping last Monday. Those are both pluses. Roger is taking today off and we may go shopping or see a movie. We've been together six years and have never been to the movies. Should be fun. I'll get some pictures posted of the bedroom as I get it done. I do have before pictures, kind of embarrassed to show them, because I did that too. (yuck) That's another story, for another post. Tootles.
