Stormy Day

It was cloudy most of the day and sprinkled on and off. There was a good 5 minutes of crazy storming though! We had just about nonstop thunder 15 minutes before and then all of a sudden it started pouring like sideways rain! We were looking out back and it was hailing really hard too! I love rainy days and getting random storms like this since we don't get them too often. Excuse the messy backyard, Hurley doesn't clean up after himself.

Phoenix Open

I come from a family of golfers. My uncle has done landscaping for golf courses since I can remember. Another uncle is a GM at a golf course. My sister worked at one for a long time as the events manager, met her husband there who was an assistant golf pro. My dad, other sister, brother, other brother in law, and Anthony ALL GOLF! So my mom and I don't really fit in since we've never been into it. My sister and brother in law had extra free tickets to the open and we decided to go. I thought it was going to be so boring but it actually turned out to be a fun time. We couldn't bring in phones or cameras so I had to get a picture online. This is one of the guys who Anthony slapped hands with and he came in 2nd. Puma sponsored him so I liked watching him.

Bath Time

Even though I didn't take this picture, I'm still using it as my POTD. Today Mason got his first bath and he did not like it one bit! He was pretty drained afterwards and fell asleep with his Mommy. It's amazing how much he has changed in just 5 days!

Frozen Yogurt

There's a place called Desert Swirl that has the best frozen yogurt! When Anthony and I lived with our parents, their houses were like 4 miles apart and Desert Swirl was right in the middle. We use to get it all the time since I'm such a huge ice cream fan and it wasn't too bad for you. Tonight we were at his parents for dinner and he decided to stop on the way home for dessert. MmmMMmmm it was delicious!

Red Potatoes

Anthony and I made a steak dinner tonight since I get off early enough to do it now! He asked for a baked potatoe but when I went to the store I decided to get red potatoes instead. My mom didn't use them much when I was growing up so I was trying to figure out when I started liking them so much. 3 or 4 years ago, we went to MN to stay with my sister for the first time and her and I would always cook dinner. I remember one of the first nights there we made really yummy red potatoes and now whenever I have them I think of her. Now I know why I enjoy having them so much!

CGC Certified

Tonight Hurley took his Canine Good Citizen test at Petsmart. I looked into the CGC test before I even had him and thought it'd be cool to have a dog that was certified. The advanced class that he graduated from focused on all the behaviors CGC tests for. I didn't think he could pass it because he pulls on the leash terribly in Petsmart and he can't walk by another dog without freaking out. Luckily though he did good enough and passed!! I was so excited and bought him this big bone to celebrate.

Daylight

Today I started my new job and was ecstatic to get home and it still be daylight outside! My first day went well but I will definitely have to get adjusted to getting up so early! First thing this morning I was really questioning if I was going to like the new schedule but when I got home it was totally worth it.
