Family Fun

What a hectic/fun/sleepless weekend it has been! My brother Adam came to town from Dallas with his new baby boxer, Banks. He is the sweetest 3 month old puppy and I get to watch him for a whole week while Adam goes to Arizona for work. It is going to be an interesting week with school, work, and running after this little guy all day. Cooper has definitley been keeping him entertained during his vacation with Aunt Allison. My dad came to visit on Friday night and took me, Adam, and my sister Adrienne out to dinner at one of our favorite places, Koppe Bridge. It is always nice catching up. It's hard sometimes when everyone now lives in different cities and has different things going on. Time sure goes by fast!

They are best friends already.
Saturday morning everyone was up nice and early. Oh the joys of having a puppy and potty training. My mom came for her visit that morning and we made a quick trip to PetsMart for some goodies. Then, it was off to lunch with everyone and I had my first Mojito at Boston's. Yum!

Next stop: Dog park. Banks was a little overwhelmed at first but had a great time. Of course Cooper was causing trouble with all the big dogs and running around like a wild man.

Last trip of the weekend: Ring dunk with Miss B. For those who don't know what a "ring dunk" is here in College Station, it is a big deal and a long lived tradition! Hoping to get mine soon!

Tomorrow is Monday. Instead of dreading it...I will say: Bring It On! It's gonna be a looong week though to say the least. I already taught Banks how to sit though. Just call me "The Dog Whisperer" Hope Kiss & Cookie have missed me terribly becuase I sure do miss them!
