Weekend Scenes


This was a weekend spent at home - relaxing, enjoying the spring weather and playing with puppies!  Our friends from DC  brought their new little puppy, Riley to visit and after a few growls and barks she and Stella became fast friends.  Since we didn't want  to leave the dogs for too long we had an afternoon BBQ and enjoyed the weather on the deck through the night before quickly heading out to grab a couple drinks.  It's always such fun to reunite with our out of town friends.


We started off the weekend with dinner and drinks Friday night with some friends and it was a delicious meal and great company.


A great mail day - can't wait to dig into these reads.


Other than the BBQ it was most of the usual - walks with Stella, sleeping in, laying low and finishing things off last night with some ice cream.


Cheers to a new week! xx
