Hiking: Indianapolis Eagle Creek Park

Newman just keeps growing and growing. I know this is something all "dog moms" and most certainly human moms say all the time . . . But now I can relate. He has literally double in size since we got him and it's unbelievable. We are starting him young and getting him used to car ride and hiking. So far he's not too sure about sticking his head out the window (perfectly ok with this crazy obsessive momma) but is loving hiking. We have finally found something to wear him out! 

This hound dog knows how to find a good trail.

^ so far loves the water.  

^"mom please stop, you're embarrassing me in front of the other dogs"

^ok, we're done here

^i'm pretty lucky,  right?

When Dennis and I first started dating we took a picture at this exact same spot, so it was fitting to recreate it, but now with out "plus one". 

It's Finally Summer

I'm excited it's finally Summer because . . . 

I want to wake up in the morning knowing when I go outside the air will be warm and not frigid.

Sunshine!!! I need the warm sun on my skin... all day, every day. Bring on that Vitamin D!

Because I wan't to see how full and green my garden will get and praying nothing dies.

I want to take Newman on long walks without having to worry with about the sun going down before I get home.

I want to spend all day outside rolling around in the grass and drinking wine all night. . . don't judge

Snow Cones and watermelon. Even better watermelon snow cones.

I want to live in sundresses and sandals.
just kidding, no sandals and barefoot weekends.

I need a day at the pool.

Workin' on my fitness. Let's be honest when it's warm outside I feel more motivated to do more and work harder on myself and my appearance.

Margaritas. Lots of margaritas

Summer makes me question why I am living in Indiana and have to deal with the W word...winter. blah

Because I want outdoor concerts.

Fresh markets.

I'm ready for freckled skin, no make up days, and moonlight walk around the neighborhood.

Summer, I love you
