Fun Day Trip 2011

Here are some pictures of my Fun Day adventures. Me, my roommate and my boys took off on Wednesday the 20th to spend the next four days touristing around California. It was crazy, busy but so much fun. We did Muir Woods, San Fransisco, the golden gate bridge, the Winchester mystery house and of course Fun Day. Anyway, here are the pictures.

Snickers on the way to California.

This the Grinch's Christmas Tree in the Salt Flats. I always love seeing it.

Are we there yet?

Are we there YET?!?!?

After a good nights sleep our first stop was the Winchester Mystery House. It was so cool, we weren't allowed to take pictures in the house so I only have pics of the grounds and museum. Here are the boys in front of some Winchester riffles.

Some old coin machines in the gift shop.

The outside of the house.

Tartan in the barn.

This door is on the third floor and leads to nothing.

The boys in front of the house.

Me and the boys waiting for our tour.

My roommate, me and the boys in front of the house.

The front door was so cool! The owner of the house only used it once.

Next stop, THE BEACH!! Tartan and Snickers loved the sand but HATED the water.

Snick in the sand.

The boys loved running around in the sand.

Snickers finally got into the water.

Me and my boys.

Tartan played with this piece of kelp for like 30 minutes

I am not really sure what Snick is doing but it's cute.

Then we did San Fransisco.

The boys with Alcatraz behind them.

Me, Snickers, my Roommate and Tartan by the sea lion statue.

Then we got Trish's Mini Donuts (A must every single time I am in San Fransisco, those things are addictive!) and ate them while we watched the sea lions. Tartan and Snickers found them fascinating.

The boys in front of the sea lions. There weren't many, I was disappointing. They are way back on the last plank.

Then we got a sundae at Ghirardellis. Also a must! The boys were so tired.

More Alcatraz pictures. I really wanted to do a tour but three weeks in advance just wasn't enough, they were already sold out through August. :(

Me and my boys under the Ghirardelli sign.

The boys getting a water break.

Then we went to Muir Woods. It was amazing and I love walking through those huge trees.

Tartan and Snickers in front of a fallen tree.

I loved the fog on the way back to the place we were staying.

Finally the day I wait for all year, it was Fun Day!

Tartan got to reunite with his brother Tuscan. He was so cute and much more active than Tartan but otherwise they were very similar.

The vet clinic had a car cutout set up that they had raisers taking pictures with. Me and Snick

and me with Tartan

Snickers getting lots of attention from his daddies breeder keeper, he loved all the attention he got all day.

Snickers sister Sweetie. the other chocolate celebrity. She was very cute. She is much shorter and stalkier than Snickers.

Snickers and Tartan got the new jacket patch while at Fun Day.

Snickers looks thrilled.

The boys were way tired after our crazy few days.

On our way back to the place we stayed we stopped by the golden gate bridge.

Then back home to Utah. The boys took a couple days to return to normal. But, I think they both had a great time and were so good on all the outings we went on.

THE END!

What has been happening since May 13th

I am admittedly an awful blogger! It's been over two months since my last post about the day I got Tartan. I can say not much has happened since then but here's a little post to get you all caught up.

I tried and failed to get a decent picture of the yellow, chocolate and black pups together. I decided to try again when Tart was older and still need to do it.

But it's okay cuz he's so stinking cute!

Paris has gone on several adventures and still manages to bring me the biggest stick she possibly can.

She also still loves water, mud, dirt, you name it. She is always totally filthy after her adventures.

I fostered 6 kittens that Snickers was absolutely terrified of! But, they still loved to cuddle with him.

Tartan is really good at being cute.

And sleeping in silly positions in his kennel.

Five of my kittens, one more joined several weeks after this pic.

Paris has eaten a truck load of pork twists and still holds them in her mouth like a cigar for several minutes before chewing on them.

I went to the zoo and got to see that baby elephant and many other cool animals.

Paris got a new collar.

I adopted one of my kittens and named him Igor. (He's a little special)

Tartan got his 12 week shots.

Paris got another new collar and loved to cuddle with all my kittens.

Snickers turned 1 year old!!!!! I still can't believe it!

Tart got his 16 week shots and was finally LEGAL!

To celebrate he got to run in the yard but, instead of running in the yard he ended up being flattened in the yard. We're working on Paris being a little gentler with the babies.

And Tartan is cute (Have I mentioned that?)

Added one more kitten to the pack. They are all gone now and three have found new homes so far and two plus the mommy cat are still waiting.

Igor and Paris became best friends

Paris is weird (and got a third new collar, this may or may not be an obsession)

Tartan enjoys the bush outside my house and spends most of his yard time in the bush.

The boys went to a Bee's baseball game and got free jerseys.

And got to meet Bumble the Bee's mascot. L-R Roscoe, Snickers, Tartan, Rio, Julimae and Silvana.

The boys have gone on countless outings and doing so well!

And I have the cutest boys in the world!

Tartan still finds weird positions to sleep in.

My cousin got married and my niece and nephew were the best on the dance floor.

Really! He twirls her and everything, it was so cute!

Paris went on more adventures. . .

Where it rained lots and lots, so we had to take refuge inside.

Tartan graduating to riding on tie down in the car and not in a crate and is now totally loose in my car.

My club had a pool party and Snickers HATED the water. He just clung to me for dear life.

Paris enjoyed the swim but got tired and latched onto the steps after a while.

Tartan loved it though, he was such a good little swimmer!

The other dogs in the club weren't too thrilled either though, Julimae (Yellow), Jacinda (on her back), Keiko (black in corner) and Rio.

And Snickers is as sweet as ever and I love him!

That's what we've been up to. :) I'll have a post about Fun Day and our California trip last week...hopefully in the next couple days.
