Last year I attended this event with someone else. He was a Mach.com date. You may remember him if you are a long time reader. He called me his "boo". Ring any bells? If not, feel free to feel my pain HERE and HERE.
I think last year's experience may have been what prompted me to announce "TEN, just so you know...you are babysitting me tonight. I feel the need to enjoy MANY martinis." And....I did :) TEN said he had me home and tucked into bed by midnight. He then took little Louis out for a stroll (in his baby-T...Louis' not TEN's...more on that later), and returned home to tuck the puppy in. Good boyfriend...
Saturday I had some errands I needed to run. It was very chilly in Smalltown, VA, so we again put Louis into his sweater. Here's the thing...when you have a little one that you see every day you don't realize that they are, in fact, growing like a weed. I swear I just had Louis wearing his little argyle sweater a week or two ago and it fit. Not anymore! He looked like he belonged on an episode of Jersey Shore...muscle T and all :( So, we added PetSmart to our list of errands.
Of course, PetSmart didn't have a single dog sweater. Boo on PetSmart! There was a Grand Opening going on for PetCo, so we piled into the car and headed over there. BIG MISTAKE. Grand Openings of any store are a nightmare, but when you pack a store with not only people but puppies....well you can imagine! We braved the masses in search of a sweater, only to find NOTHING. Uggghhh....
So, I've just ordered Louis this little sweater online :
I sure hope it fits!
Saturday night was Girl's Night! Oddly enough, there isn't really anything MAJOR to share. I know, amazing, right? Not that it wasn't a good time. We had a GREAT time. It's just that we danced, drank and laughed ourselves silly....but nothing "dramatic" occurred. Good times for sure!
Sunday I spent the entire day on the couch snuggling with Louis. TEN came over to join us in the afternoon. It's rare I find myself with the time to lay on the couch all day, and I surely did enjoy it. Now I am rested and ready to take on the week!

I'm right there with you on our westie boys growing like weeds. I just received a soft mess harness for Derby that I ordered - and guess what - I can hardly get it closed ... so ... I'm going to look for a smaller dog to give it to. Doesn't pay to return it. Should have known better and ordered a larger size.
Gotta run - Derby is trying to bury his rawhide in my chair cushion! Bad boy ...
I love the hope of how much can change in a year!
I always think, "Oh, I got this after my dog stopped growing" but then I put the sweater on and it's amazing how tight it is! I think my dog grows "out" a little bit too :)
Umm, I was hoping for a pic of Louis' silly muscle tee? no? :(
