in bloom

The peonies are about to bloom!

Spring is finally here... just a few months late.

Just thought I'd share some of my Instagrams to show you how I've been spending the beautiful fall weather this year. The grandparents of one of my greatest friends, Tom, own a farm here in Woodbury. They needed help picking pumpkins and other produce that they sell at local farmer's markets. So, obviously Alvi & I jumped at the opportunity. A big group of us gathered at the farm and picked pumpkins, gourds, raspberries, peppers, tomatoes, and apples. It was great and we were able to go home with a trunk full of goodies. 

Boyd and I have also been enjoying our walks, lately. Wish the trees stayed like this forever.  

Home Sweet Home

Boyd and I have enjoyed being home, especially when we had our warm weather last week. We went for walks through the neighborhood and some local parks, which he looooved. He gets to run like wild man while I chase after him (looking equally as crazy). You really take for granted your childhood home and all the luxuries you had until you move away into the real world. It's nice to be back but I need to get back into my adult, busy life. No more post-graduation slump for this gal!

5 Things: Sleepy Dogs

I'm sitting here trying to get some stuff done on my computer but it is so hard to pay attention when I have Boyd sawing logs in his sleep right next to me. MAN, that dog can snore loudly. He looks so cute when he's sleeping so I decided to dedicate this "5 Things" post to sleepy little pups.

Boyd

Ok, I HAD to make this post from my phone. I don't necessarily like posting from my iPhone but this is worth it. So anyway, Boyd dreams every night, seriously. I'm talking barking in his sleep, legs "running", nose twitching dreams. But last night was something new: He was licking something! He was asleep and a little bit of his tongue was hanging out. He would randomly wave it around like he was licking something. Probably the fridge, his favorite thing to do. I had to snap a picture (and maybe a couple thousand videos) because it was so damn cute!

Don't you love him? I do.... Maybe a little too much.

Puppy Love

You'll soon find out I have a not-so-secret obsession with my puggle, Boyd. He's awesome and the cutest damn thing.

Here he is begging for some turkey.
