Not quite the Florida trip I've been wanting, but a much needed break nonetheless.  And at least I'll be in a state that borders the ocean??

Unexpected

THE EXPECTED PLAN:
 
Stay home.  Alone.  Eat supper.  Study for several hours.  Watch a movie.  Go to bed.  *YAWN*  Boooorrrrriiiinnnng!!!!!
 
 
 
THE UNEXPECTED EVENTS:
 
Got a text from Cassie asking what I was doing "right now".  Get a little suspicious.  A few minutes later, hear the door open.  Call out her name.  Hear her laugh:)  Huge hug!  Trip to Dairy Queen because I've been craving it for weeks now.  Good times with a great friend.  MUCH better than the expected plan!
 
 
 
PROGRESSION OF PICTURE ATTEMPTS:
 
 
 
Attempt #1: Couldn't keep from laughing.
 
 
 
Attempt #2:  "Let's gaze into each other's eyes" she said.  FAIL!!

 
 
Attempt #3: I said "Okay now let's take a nice one."  Oh that girl.

 
 
Attempt #4:  So then she said "Now let's really take a nice one."  Well, she did at least. 

 
 
Attempt #5:  Between my "it's Friday and I wore sweatpants all day" look and her "worked last night/slept 3 hours/well travelled" look, that's just as good as it's gonna get.

 
Sometimes I love the unexpected!

Puppy Dog Eyes

There is truth to the idea that people give in to puppy dog eyes.  They look at you with their big sad eyes and just BEG you for whatever it is they want.  Our dog?  He comes to the front porch while we're eating, jumps up on a table we have right outside the window and gives his best big sad puppy dog eyes.  He doesn't always get what he wants but there are times that he's rather convincing.....
 
 
Can you say S.P.O.I.L.E.D.???
 
Oh Butch.  What a dog.
