Weekend Recap!

Hiya! 

So if we're friends on Instagram, you know I was in Houston last week at the winter NAPE meeting. I rarely travel for work these days...which is totally fine... but it was a nice break in the daily grind to get out of the office. Plus, I learned a LOT! 

My friend and coworker, Nicky, and me at our company's reception in Houston. 

Eric and I were both in Houston most of the week, returning on Friday evening. Saturday was rainy which provided the perfect excuse to be lazy bums with our two furballs. :)

While we were busy planting our asses on our sofas, we discovered the Netflix original show, House of Cards. Not gonna lie.. kind of obsessed. I threw a bit of a hissy and almost turned it off after the opening scene. For fellow pup lovers out there, the show opens with a dog dying. That doesn't ruin anything for you and it gives you more warning than I had. After Eric convinced me, I finally gave in and watched the whole first ep. On episode 9 and so far, no more animal issues. Phew. 

Saturday night, some friends were headed to Kid Rock while Lauren and I headed to see Bill Maher. Our groups merged for a little dinner festiveness at Mi Cocina. Mambo taxis? Yes please. :) 

I dunno if I've mentioned but poor little Winston has issues with leashes, cords, anything that looks like a cord... It makes me sad. I kind of think he was tied up at one point. Anyway, it's really hard to walk Gracie and him alone b/c Gracie LOVES walks, so when Win sits down and braces his little body on the sidewalk, things get a little crazy while she pulls on my other arm. (It's entertaining in my head. Reality? Not so much...haha). And he won't go unless Gracie is going. So, Eric and I teamed up today. It started with Win running to my car and then crawling under it and hiding. Poor guy. After a little coaxing, some carrying, and some treats, he ended up loving his walk by the end. :) 

Oh and while Eric and I were packing to head back to Tulsa, tickets to the Woody Guthrie Folk Festival went on sale...featuring Mumford and Sons! Guthrie, OK (easy drive from Tulsa), is one of their ONLY stops this year, so tickets were a hot commodity. Thanks to Eric's parents working both their laptops, we got tix! I'm not even that obsessed with the band- just think it'd be fun!

And that's it, folks! Hope you had a great weekend!
