Mustache Party

Here are some pictures from the Mustache Party that we went to the other week. And yes, these guys grew their mustaches just for the party. It was amazing! I know Dan was thankful when it was gone (Sorry mom, I know you liked it)!

Everyone Loves the Spring Sunshine





Atlantic City

Last week, Dan and I ventured up to Atlantic city on a whim. Dan goes to a car auction for work every Tues-Wed in New Jersey, so his co-workers dropped him off at a rest stop in Delaware and I picked him up, then off we went to Atlantic City! We stayed at the Tropicana, which was very nice for the money. We had a nice dinner, played some blackjack and roulette then went to bed. In the morning we woke up, played some more and took a nice walk on the boardwalk. Unfortunately, I lost my money, but Dan won some money. It was a fun time and hopefully we can do it again when we get some free rooms from the Tropicana!

Easter Sunday

This Sunday Dan and I replanted some bushes in the backyard (the bushes from last year were struggling due to lack of water). Then we had my Dad, Kathleen, and Teddy over for a steak dinner and Easter candy. It was nice to have some family time! Here are some pictures from the day...
New bushes. Maybe someday they will grow real big and block the boat in the neighbors yard!

Dad at the grill!



No Easter is complete without Easter baskets and colorful candy!

New Zealand



Dan and I just booked a flight to New Zealand in October! We decided to take advantage of the relatively "low" prices that we found and go for an adventure. I've heard it is an amazing place go visit. I am sure the LONG flight will be worth it once we get there!

Animals

We Love our animals...





Gunny bathing in the sun.
We went for a walk today at Loch Raven, where they close down to streets from 10-5 on weekends so that people can walk and ride bikes. Of course, out of the 45 min we were out, there was 30 min of rain. Gunny was running out of steam by the time we got back to the car... she is starting to show her age, poor girl.





Bella checking out roses that Dan surprised me with. We caught her about to be mischievous.
I will never consider myself a cat person, but I will admit that she is growing on me since she stopped biting and scratching me!

Gunny and Bella are getting along better now that they have been roommates for over 4 months. Soon, they will be best of friends.

Montana Trip

Last week Dan, Kathleen, and I visited my mom at her new home in Whitefish, Montana! Her house is very nice and seems perfect for her with lots of room for visitors. It was a great trip. We did a lot of winter activities. Skiing, snowshoeing, and dog sledding. No worries, we had lots of relaxing time as well. Here are some pictures from the trip...
