Friday 5: 4th of July Weekend

Happy 4th of July!  I hope everyone is enjoying the holiday weekend!  I plan on enjoying this weekend to the fullest!  Make sure to check out how everyone on the Friday Five link up is celebrating by joining Mar, Cynthia, and Courtney!

1. Spending time with my pup.  Last weekend I had to go without him for DAYS because I traveled for the wedding and we have a couple other separations coming up.  I bought somebody some Frosty Paws as a peace offering.  Speaking of peace offering...




2. Maddux got a sister!  At least for the weekend.  Check out this sweet girl who is crashing with Maddux and me this weekend.  She is hilarious.  I don't think I've ever seen such a clumsy dog.  If you are looking for lots of smiles check out how to adopt Cream here.




She is obsessed with hiding in the blinds.  


3. Getting ready for my next adventure!  I get to see my sister so soon, but lots of laundry and cleaning have to be done first.  I HATE coming home to a messy house, and with two dogs it's been a little hard keeping things tidy.  Cream really loves pulling every toy (and Maddux has A LOT of toys) out of the basket and hiding them around the house.  I'm telling you, never a dull moment.

She kept running in and out of my room. I walk in to find this dog with a bed full of toys.


4. Checking off a 6 miler.  This weekend is supposed to be really nice!  I'm a little worried about my  IT band since it was giving me some issues on my 5 miler the other day, but hopefully it was just one of those off days.

5. Finishing the running streak!  It is officially over!  I am very excited to take a day completely off tomorrow.



Happy 4th!  How are you celebrating?

  1. My dog will pull out all of her toys if I don't keep them from her. I keep a small basket with four or five toys out where she can reach them, and then I store the rest of them out of her reach. That way she doesn't destroy my house.
    Congrats on the #RWRunStreak

    1. Haha, I'm not that worried about it. She's only here until Sunday and since she doesn't have any toys of her own yet I figure I'll let her be in toy heaven while she's here :-)

    1. I am tackling the 6 miler tomorrow! I should have gone with y'all instead :-) I'm hoping that a complete day off today will help me not feel quite so sluggish. Keep your fingers crossed that my little girl finds a home tomorrow! She is going to make someone very happy :-)

  7. I like your dogs! Lately I've been thinking about getting a dog. But I know it's a big responsibility and I want to make sure I can give it enough of my attention.

    1. Thank you! They are good pups :-) Dogs do require a lot of extra planning, so you're smart to not rush into it! I can't imagine my life without mine though. In my opinion, it's definitely worth the extra craziness!
