happy birthday moose

Our sweet pup is THREE today! I can't believe we have had him for three years. He is finally starting to mellow out a little. But never fear, he is still a happy, (slightly less) wild, excited version of himself. He is a great sock thief, squirrel chaser, running buddy and snuggler. I'm so glad we get to be his people and he's our pup. Happy, happy, happy birthday Moose Man Magoo!

If you want to see how he's grown, check out his first and second birthday's. 

happy friday

This week was not easy with that dang time change. I don't feel like I've caught up on sleep yet and I've been in bed by 9:30 for the past three nights...

Other than that we didn't have a particularly interesting week. Spring seems to have arrived and we've spent as much time outside as we can. I love living in the Midwest so we get to experience all four seasons equally.

This weekend we're planning to spend some time with my sister and her family and as always, catch up on the ever growing pile of laundry. I hope to find time to start my new book, but in the meantime this week's links are pretty entertaining. Enjoy!


I know that I'm not alone with my distaste for time changes...

We live in a world where the news can be a bit "crappy," this is no exception

This video made me tear up a little

I'm glad I wasn't following some of these semi's but, I feel like I would have stopped to help clean up the Twizzlers 

and one last video to end on...a cat fail

Have a great weekend!

happy friday

This week was all about catching up from last week and by about Wednesday, I think we finally did. While I was in Chicago with my dad, Alex was in Lexington with his dad and brothers, so we both had a busy (fun) weekend. We each had a great time away, but as always, it was nice to be home again.

I don't have a lot planned for this weekend other than a baby shower and some dinner plans on Sunday. Alex has declared that he has no plans for this weekend and he doesn't want me to make any for him...

and with no further ado, here are this week's links:

Happy Weekend!

late in the game

I think I'm about 7 or so years late in the game, but I have finally gotten Twitter. Now I don't know how I existed without it. I feel like I haven't known this much about what's going on in the news and media since high school's Channel 1. If you want to follow me, I'm @abbybwilliams.

In other news, I'm still ready for spring to arrive but I think we still have more snow and ice on the way. I can dream...

Last weekend in Chicago was a lot of fun and I ate more in two nights there than I do in a week here. But, everything was so good! We ate at Bandera Thursday night and at RPM on Friday(and train food both coming and going-not as good). I finished up my required continuing education hours and learned a lot refreshed my memory of all things dental hygiene. I'm very thankful that my dad invited me to join him. He is a good travel buddy and certainly knows how to keep me on my toes ;)
