It has been a tough week already... Chris and I "thought" we wanted another dog in the family. We thought that maybe Chase missed Falkor and she needed a buddy. We met Shooter McGee last night, 3-5yrs old, white and beige beautiful cocker spaniel. He was a stray and he had been living with a foster family for the last couple weeks, unfortunately before that he was living his life in a kennel. Of course I fell in love with him immediately, but soon my rational side took over and I realized that bringing in a dog that is set in his ways, was not what we needed, and definitely not what Chase wanted... she didn't like that he was taking HER toys. I think for now, we will stay a one dog family and maybe in the future we will adopt from a shelter and let Chase raise the dog. Chase is so sweet, gentle and well behaved, we would be extremely happy to have another dog just like her.

This weekend will be a lot of fun. Friday night, Chris and I are joining Becca and her parents at a wine festival at Mount Vernon. On Saturday we are going to Oktoberfest in Shirlington to try beer. Beer before wine, you're fine? ut oh... anyway, we will definitely take some pictures and share our weekend!!
