mornings with mike





i took mikey to the wissahickon for the first time recently. i've gathered over the past year and a half that all dog owners in philadelphia spend every waking moment splashing around in the wissahickon. i can't walk a few steps down my street in the summer without a neighborhood dog pal telling me all about their adventures there and then give me side-eye when i say i haven't been there since i was a kid and - omg - never took my dog there. am i the only one that hears about this all the time? well, we finally went. and it was awesome. i went on a friday morning so it wasn't crowded - just a few bikers and some joggers. it was nice to walk along the forbidden drive just ourselves and dip our toes and paws into the water.

mornings with mike





we recently spent a super-hot morning walking around behind memorial hall near the japanese gardens and horticultural center in fairmount park. it was crazy hot, so we didn't stay long but i definately want to go back. paved paths, shady trees and fun fountains!

4th of july weekend included family, friends, funnel cake, ice cream from the windmill, splashing around in the lake, 75% off flea markets, celebrity sightings, sun and fun. pretty perfect.

yes, yes i did

.

not only buy and wrap gifts for my pet but also selected dogs-wearing-skis wrapping paper. actually the paper came first - once i saw it at target, i knew i had to get mikey some gifts to use it. and look at him - even he can tell that the whole thing is totally wrong. but dogs-wearing-skis...i mean...come on!

the little fluff also got some gifts. here he is enjoying a bone and hoping i leave him alone.

a certain someone


sported a holiday bandanna for a few festivities. i'm pretty anti-dog bandanna but come on - this one works.
