Weekend Review - Work, Play and Puppies

The weekends roll by way too fast... I feel like I didn't have enough time to do anything...

But.. that is a lie, in fact.. we got a shit load done.

We worked all weekend on the basement of the house.. scrubbing walls, putting this nasty solution on the wall to get rid of salt build up, and finally finishing up by filling in any cracks or holes in the cement. We also cleaned out the rain gutters, which then made us realize that we have to buy new gutters....

Now, we are ready to waterproof the basement.. this is done with a paint called Drylok, that I am hoping will do the trick. This will probably take us all week to paint.. it's not a small basement.

We did get to have some down time and hang out with some friends Saturday night. We had a bonfire... it was a great night for it. It wasn't too cold, but it was good. There is something about sitting by a bonfire for hours that is just so relaxing... I love it.

Yesterday we also went to look at some dogs... and puppies.. ohhh puppies. Ryan wants to get a German Shorthair pointer, which is a beautiful dog.. not too big, and really loving. He wants a dog for hunting.. and luckily for us I found a breeder only 20 minutes away.. so off we went. They had 3 week old puppies, and they were adorable. We didn't go to get a puppy, more to meet the breeders, see their dogs, meet the dogs and get familiar with the breed. We are not looking to get one to maybe this fall, the next litter, but we wanted to form a relationship, now he will keep us in the loop with the next puppies. Ryan is so excited, and I'm excited for him to get his pup...

Aren't they pretty? I just love the spots..

And so cute as puppies..

I can't wait to get my hands on one of these guys... it gives us something to look forward to in the fall!

I hope this Monday goes fast... along with the rest of this week...
