Ducks!

Seeing how Thanksgiving week is the slowest week for our restaurant, Adam and I took advantage of our morning off today and took our sweet Lole to the park for the afternoon!

My dear husband educated me on the nature of ducks, which I very soon realized was true after watching them for a few minutes. He was telling me about how ducks have a natural instinct to follow.

Well, it was the sweetest thing because as Lole would walk up and down the side of the river, these ducks would keep turning back and forth to follow her! It was the cutest thing!

Anyway, as I am counting my blessings this week, I am so grateful for the beautiful weather! Today was supposedly the last nice day of the year and it was so beautiful! Who would think that we would be playing at the park in our short sleeved shirts on November 20th in Utah?! Crazy!

2 Years!!

Exactly 2 years ago today, I was approached by the most handsome man while I was eating at Famous Dave's BBQ... who'da thought that we would be where we are today! What a wonderful day! Happy Anniversary to us!! :)

Time flies!

I can't believe how much our little Lole has grown! This week at the vet, she weighed in at 13 pounds 6 ounces! She is almost two times the size she was when we got her! All the ladies at the vet loved her 'red stiletto' nails and she is learning so many tricks! As of this past week, she can officially lay down on command! It is the sweetest thing because she just plops her front paws down because she is so excited! She is such a joy to play with AND a great snuggler! :)

1 year!!

Wow! Adam and I got engaged exactly one year ago today! I can't believe it! It seems like just yesterday - and at the same time it feels like 5 years ago! Crazy!

Life in Minnesota

So we have been here in Plymouth, MN for a couple weeks so far and we are really enjoying it! The weather is MUCH cooler than Vegas and there are so many fun things to do! So far, we have picked our own strawberries, we went to the farmers market and bought lots of yummy produce for cheap, we went to the Taste of MN (which is always an adventure) and saw the Village People, we watched the Saint Paul Saints obtain their 10th win in a row (the twins semi-pro baseball team), and we have been enjoying life with our puppy! I start work today, so hopefully we still have time to do all those fun things throughout the summer!

Feeling Famous

Now that our new adventure in Plymouth, Minnesota has begun, I am excited that I have found the job I have been wanting! You can call me "Famous Mary Rose," because I am now a part of the Famous Dave's team! I am way excited! With all the history Adam and I have there - I think it is the perfect place for me to work! Anyway, I am excited to be working again at a fun job!

Woo Woo

Adam is officially the BIG 26!! (As of yesterday!)
It is late... so more updates on our exciting day tomorrow!
