Vet Appointments

At least every month, if not every other week we have been taking Mac to the vet.

Weather its for vaccine's, puppy check up, etc.

The first few times he was very scared and shy and sat there quietly.

I honestly think the Vet is worse for me than it is for him.. I just want to comfort him the whole time, he has thee cutest, softest whimper when he is scared and just wants his mama.

He only weighed 9 pounds on his first visit there.

First time at the Vet



Since then he has gotten a lot more comfortable with getting examined. He still hates when we touch his paws.. but with time I think that will improve too.


Brave boy

Still needs papa sometimes


I hope with time it will get easier for me to see him going to the vet. I am not looking forward to the day when he has "his surgery" and has to wear the cone of shame. Poor guy, he doesn't know what's coming.

Salt Lake City.

A few weeks ago I went out to visit my friend who moved to Salt Lake City, UT back in January.

Nick wasn't able to go with me due to work. .  so this was my first time traveling via planes and taxis solo.

When I arrived Megan took us out for smoothies and to get manicures & pedicures :)

We had plenty of time to catch up as the nail salon took over 3 hours. But we didn't care.

We went to her place, where I was reunited with Piper (her dog), I missed that puppy so much! We went out to dinner with her boyfriend.

I had my first Nitro beer. . . I can't say I was a fan. But the dinner was amazing!


The next morning we grabbed brunch at a local bakery.


Went shopping... I bought a little bit too much that later on when i went to pack my suitcase, I had quite the time trying to get it closed. (oops)

 

We had a sushi lunch.


I took some selfies. (trying to get the mountains in the background) but i failed.






She doesn't have red hair.... it is an optical illusion.


We spent a night out on the town. Went to a dualing piano bar.

The next day we went up to Park City. That area was beautiful. Despite the storm we drove in to get there...



Saw my first Bansky in real life. I was so excited! My brother first introduced me to his work a few years ago and I have always been intrigued by him and his art work. I can't believe I saw one in person!


Grabbed some pizza at a local shop in Park City

This is Kevin- Megan's boyfriend


And then they took me to the airport. . . 40 minutes before my plane was suppose to leave. It all worked out though :)

I had such a wonderful trip! I can't wait to go back. Thanks Megan and Kevin for having me and being such wonderful hosts'. Miss you guys already!

Autographs, Concerts, & Lunch Dates.

The last two days have been so much fun.

On Friday I had a lunch date with my dad, because the following night I was going to a concert with my mom.

While at the mall, Ingrid Michaelson was there signing autographs and doing a mini concert as well.

My mom was in Vegas at the time so for a Mother's Day gift my Dad and I got her Ingrid's new album and had it autographed for her.

We had an awesome day. We had sushi, went shopping, and got to see a concert.

The following night I went to her concert with my mom. We had a blast!

so hard to get a good picture :/
I have the best parents, I am so glad I was able to have one on one time with each of them this weekend.

Easter Sunday.

Hoppy Easter everybunny!

For Easter we always go to my grandparents and spend the afternoon there eating lunch, having an easter egg hunt and playing outside.

This year Easter fell on the day after my birthday.. So i was up a little too late the night before. And having an almost 3 hour drive with a 4 month old puppy at 9am was an adventure in itself ;)

We brought Mac along so my extended family could meet him. I think they all really liked him (i mean whats not to like?)

Mac says "Woof"- translation "Happy Easter!"


Nick and I haven't really established any Easter traditions of our own yet...

What traditions to you guys have?

What beautiful weather we had for Easter.

He is risen!
