Washington Kastles Tennis
Every year we try to attend at least one Washington Kastles tennis match. The best part is the matches are indoors at the GW Basketball Arena. Where else can you watch tennis and be nice and cool in
Och Aye – Well THEY are Scottish!

Georgetown Summer Concerts in the Park
Georgetown has free summer concerts in the park and they are such a treat! We always run into friends and James has a good time playing with the kids and the other dogs.

James got his summer cut from Ana over at Doggie Style. I have been making him lots of new summer bandanas, too!
James – A Therapy Dog Break
For the past few weeks at the hospital James has noticed a squirrel toy in a bag in the nurses area. He keeps eyeing it and sniffing towards the squirrel toy. But he is a good dog while he is working
Blog Update
We haven’t been in a regular habit of posting on the blog since we moved to Washington, DC. But changes are coming! I asked Chris to update the look of the blog and he doesn’t mind that I sketch out
Milka Oreo chocolate bar
Oh my goodness – two of my favorite things in one candy bar! Milka chocolate is something I first tried in Austria and I fell in love with the taste. It is a Swiss German chocolate and it is even better
Flamingo Table Linens
I love The Company Store. I learned about them years ago from my sorority sisters. Roommates in the sorority house planned matching bedding and room decorations and they usually ordered their bedding
Poodles in the Chasing Fireflies Catalog
My friend Jen gets a catalog from Chasing Fireflies. I hadn’t heard of this clothing before but they have the cutest dresses and suits for little girls and little boys! Everything is so adorable! The
Bipolar House
Check out this house we found in Virginia – I told Chris it was a bipolar house!
It looks pretty much like every other home built in 1956 in Virginia:

Inflatable Poodle Toy
I love all things Poodle! I tend to find the most random Poodle objects on the internet. The latest find is this inflatable Poodle toy at Neiman Marcus. It would be a cute decoration in a child’s bedroom
Melania Trump’s Inauguration Gown
I am SO excited to see what soon to be First Lady Melania Trump picks for her inauguration gown. And will she have more than one gown? There is the Big Apple Ball and two other balls that the Trumps
My Inauguration Gown
This is my 2017 Inauguration Gown! Well, it is the one I would pick if I was invited to the Big Apple Ball. So far, I haven’t heard from President Elect Trump or soon to be First Lady Melania. But they
DC preppy vs. FL casual
Living in Georgetown is so much fun for people watching! Most people here dress very well – all the time. It is fun to see the trends and the classics. Washington DC does tend to lean towards classic
Inauguration Practice 2016
It is so much fun to be living in Washington, DC with an inauguration happening in just a few days. There are “58th Presidential Inauguration No Parking” signs all around town and it makes me smile!
James went to the Ophthalmologist
James went to the Ophthalmologist. No, he doesn’t need glasses! But we think he still looks pretty cute in this pair of reading glasses!
James tends to have a bit of a drippy eye from time to
Carrie Underwood – Golden Globes 2017
I LOVE the Iris Serban dress Carrie Underwood wore to the Golden Globes this year! I am actually surprised that so many entertainment critics didn’t like it. I thought it was really pretty and looked
The Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer
I had what I thought was a good hair dryer (a BaByliss Pro). I used it for 8 years but when we moved into a 100+ year old house in Georgetown it kept blowing our circuit breaker and I could only use it
