Today was a good Saturday - we ran errands (we had to wait in the checkout line for THIRTY minutes because the store was totally unprepared for the amount of people trying to shop before the storm hit), I read two books, make stuffed chicken, au gratin potatoes, and chocolate crinkle cookies, watched the first episode of Primeval (not bad!) and watched two episodes of Bablyon Five.

Tomorrow? I am (hopefully) making muffins, eclairs (from scratch) and carrot cake cup cakes! I cannot wait! :-)

Pictures of things I cooked (and Sam)! )

This is the crazy tunnel under Detroit Metro Airport! I think it's so fun - I love going through it.

My little girl is ALL GROWN UP. We put her crate away today.

We've been leaving her out, and she hadn't gone in it in like a month (toys hadn't moved.) Even though she tried to play tug of war with the carpet this morning, that doesn't happen much. :-)

Awesome!

We decided to take a whirl-wind trip to Ohio for the holiday weekend to visit my in-laws. It rained on Friday, creating a BIG mud puddle in the back yard. You know what happens when a Golden Retriever meets a mud puddle?

THIS:


She had an AMAZING time. She ran around the house before we could catch her and by the time we got to her the damage was done. So for the next 30 minutes Sam was rolling and running and dipping and diving and it was FANTASTIC. She was the happiest I have ever seen her. (I would note that she was not so happy with the subsequent 30 minute hosing/bath it took to get the mud out of her fur :-))

We had a great trip - Sam was an ANGEL in the car both ways, we didn't get a flat tire, and I didn't get food poisoning and end up in the ER, so that makes it better than last year. :-)

See, I think my dog is adorable and therefore I think everyone should think my dog is adorable. Well tonight, I had confirmation from Joe Biden that my dog is, in fact, adorable.

We were walking Sam tonight, and we ended up walking along the Memorial Day Parade on Delaware Avenue, and we saw Joe Biden walking with his granddaughter and as we walked by he pointed to Sam and said "look at that cute dog" and his granddaughter looked at Sam and smiled!

My dog is so cute Joe Biden pointed her out! :-)

Sam turned 2 today! We threw her a little party last night and she got to eat cake and open presents!

We took her for two long walks and gave her lots of scratches and treats. ::loves::

As I was snuggling with my Sam tonight I decided I wanted to do a post on how much I love her - and seeing as her 2nd birthday is on Friday, this is a post all about my puppy! Some of these pictures are repeats, and some are others I found.

She's just kinda the most fantastic puppy ever. She's sweet and lovable and excellent with strangers and really a perfect angel in public. (and most of the time in private) :-) She loves to cuddle and does silly things and has all of these wonderful quirks that we just love and she's spoiled and sweet.
