Happy Thanksgiving

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend. I'm sad it's almost over. My students performed the annual Turkeys Go On Strike play- went off great other than the rain. Thursday the 3 of us went for a nice turkey dinner at our neighbor's house- it was cut a little short when our dear Abby had an accident in the house and my eye blew up like Rocky due to an allergic reaction to their smoky house- needless to say we all took showers and were in bed pretty early. Friday we went for a nice long run, Thad went to see Bond (eh, he says) and then we pulled out all of the Christmas stuff. I know it seems a little soon but it takes so long to do and you only get a little while to enjoy it so we are the first people on our block to be lit up. Today we got up early- went to the gym, watched Mizzou- Sorry Jess, that was a tough loss. and started Christmas shopping. Now Thad is at the grocery store getting stuff to make baked ziti tonight- yum! and then an Abby walk and then going to see Four Christmases tonight.
Tomorrow we have a play date at the dog park- Then Abby starts her Puppy Kindergarten Level 2 tomorrow.
Monday- Back to work!

The Kong

The Kong is one of Ab's favorite toys. We stuff it treats, secure them with peanut butter and it's supposed to occupy the dog for a good amount of time. Most dogs we've seen just lay down and dig the treats out with their mouths. Well Abby took a more novel approach. You'll see. Too cute!

Abby has been rocking the blue collar this week for Obama!

Our new toys

Needless to say we are both loving our new house additions. Thank Thank Thank you to the Harmons for your way too generous help towards Thad's tv. However, he is very quick to tell me that this tv is for sports, not Oprah.
And then with some leftover Bed Bath Beyond gift cards, a 20% off coupon, and an additional 15% percent for registering there we finally broke down and got a Dyson. I LOVE IT! It is amazing. I love seeing the dirt and the ridiculous amount of dog hair it picks up. I can speak for both of us when I say money well spent.

Saturdays

I love them. I love Friday nights into Saturdays even more. I love this weekend even more because I have off Monday and Tuesday for Veterans Day. I'll take that. Thad is in San Francisco this weekend playing rugby, I was going to go but I have a few things here that I should get done without dragging the hubby with me. I just got back from a really long run with Abby, we met a black lab and his owner Carrie who ironically worked with Thaddeus on Mr. & Mrs. Smith. We are meeting up again tomorrow at the dog park for a play date. So, now I'm home, eating my sandwich, laundry is in, about to take a shower and head off to Target. I love Saturdays!!!!
