#110 - We LOVE fall houseguests!

The week before Halloween, Heather & Brock visited us from Albertville, MN! We stayed at our friend's condo in downtown San Diego and hit the town that night - Nicky Rotten's, Tipsy Crow, Double Deuce! The next day we had breakfast at Hash House A Go Go. BIG portions, the bloody marys came out with a slider as the garnish (the guys were really happy to see that).
After breakfast we went to Stone Brewery, we had been wanted to go for a long time! Was really beautiful there - felt like a nature preserve. (I wish my legs were still that tan!!)


A couple weeks later, our good friend Troy (our very own Kato Kaelin) came out to see us! We hit a couple Temecula wineries on our way back to downtown San Diego.


We had the most amazing brie bowl at this winery (Tony gets credit for this one - Tony & Marissa met with us for wine tasting, they were in Temecula for the night because they had a hot air balloon ride the next morning which one was of their wedding presents, happy 1 year anniversary!)!


Here we are at the condo in SD overlooking Petco Park - it was a chilly day but the free flowing libations kept us happy!

#109 - And then there were THREE.

In true serendipitous fashion, we are now the proud owner of yet another chihuahua mix! There were no plans to add to our pack (other than recent talks about possibly adopting a larger, outside dog). Then on Saturday night we got a call from my niece that this little dog needed a home or would be taken to the local shelter the next day. Sight unseen we said we'd take her and here she is:

The other two dogs are still getting use to her but it gets better every day. In this picutre, Lola is outside because she is more physically playful but is twice the size of the other two and I wanted to introduce one dog at a time. You can see Tobey couldn't really care less about her. Hopefully they'll all be good friends soon!






Her name is EMMA and she is a snuggler! She likes to be picked up, carried, held but most of all she loves to snuggle up on the couch.
