And They're Off!!

Brian and I went to our first-ever weenie dog race in the big city of Buda, (most of you probably know, we moved into a house there last August). So... for those friends that say there is nothing to do in Buda, well, not this weekend! Haha

Notice this one has a hot dog leash?????


It was probably one of the funniest things I've ever seen. People get SO into it - most of them were dressed in costume and had been training for months in advance. Training?? For a weenie dog race?? I said the same thing, but when we watched them on Saturday they were running all over the place, confused, didn't know what to do..And the ones that made it into the finals (the really good ones) knew immediately what to do once the gates when up. They were there to win. Haha.

They even stayed in their own lanes

Appropriate! I wanted to get inside and sit in the

driver's seat, but it was filled with little kids!

Who doesn't love Starbucks

So...Dakota loves Starbucks just as much as I do!

I took this picture when my sister was in town visiting, we were all eating breakfast that Brian had brought from Starbucks and I had just put my yogurt with granola down on the table. Well Dakota stuck her nose inside of it and started licking it out and got the cup stuck on her nose. We were all cracking up!

That little character!!

This week on The Bachelor...

If you don't watch the Bachelor, then this will probably not interest you at all. :)

But seriously....Why did he let go of Noelle? She was the classiest, most sincere - not to mention very pretty, girl that I have seen on there. She was so composed when she left and always held her head high.

Shayne - I'm liking her more than I did in the beginning...She can be pretty funny and she isn't extremely catty like a lot of the other girls have been. She's completely honest with who she is and I appreciate that. She is definitely high-maintenance, but she's always pretty fair about all of the girls getting their own time with Matt. I just don't know if there is anything long-term there.... and I don't know if her acting career is the reason she is on the show in the first place...

Amanda - I liked Amanda more after last night and the practical joke she played on Matt. For some reason she just doesn't "wow" me, but she does seem very sweet. I feel like she can be kind of boring at times...but I think she is there with good intentions. I guess if I had to choose out of the final 3 it would be Amanda.

Chelsea - Not really feeling her. She has kind of annoyed me from the beginning. And the whole "I can't hold your hand" thing just seems juvenile. I feel like she tries to be too mysterious and hard-to-get. Hoping she goes home next week....

Five-Mile Dam

Such a hidden treasure...We had never heard of the Five-Mile Dam in San Marcos until our neighbors told us about it and how much fun it is to take your dog and just go and relax for the day. We had a great time..The weather was absolutely gorgeous and we let Dakota swim her little heart out.

Texas Bluebonnets - My favorite part of Spring

Ahh..Texas Bluebonnets. By far my favorite part of Spring. We took these photos right down the street from our house. It took a few takes...but Dakota finally sat still and took some great photos. I only wish we could have taken one with the three of us.
