Red decided to give us a little scare this weekend. He actually scratched his own little eye. Parental instincts kicked in as we rushed him to the Animal ER in Totem Lake. Thankfully, he is all fixed up with antibiotics, pain killers and yes, this pitiful protective cone... Isn't he such a cute little patient???

Our First Trip to the ER as Parents!
Our One Year Anniversary... Already!
I know!! We can't believe it has been a whole year since our wedding day! Greg took me to the Alderbrook Resort & Spa to celebrate the occasion with a romantic weekend getaway...
We took the Ferry from Settle to Bremerton on what I think was the most beautiful day of the year...
It was my first Seattle Ferry ride, so I snapped a ton of pictures...

We found this great little local Cafe that served a great breakfast (and lunch too)...
We had a blast celebrating out first anniversary...very romantic my husband of one year is! I also have to share another story of how romantic my husband is...
One of my other gifts was given to me before we left for the weekend away. Greg told me to close my eyes as he explained the gift. He started telling me how most couples save, freeze and then eat part of their wedding cake on their first anniversary. In our case, we had cupcakes instead of cake. Well, Greg went on to say that he had a diet friendly version of that tradition for me (for those of you that don't know, I have recently started a new workout and strict diet regimen (thanks X-Gym!) that he has been very supportive of). I held out my hand, and as I opened my eyes I found a darling t-shirt that read: "Kara's Cupcakes, San Francisco, CA". I know, you are thinking that Greg had a t-shirt specially made for me with my name, cupcakes and one of our honeymoon destinations on it. But no, when we left Cancun and wend to San Francisco for the last part of our Honeymoon, we came across a business near Ghirardelli Square called Kara's Cupcakes! Unfortunately they had not yet opened, so we were not able to get one of their tasty cupcakes. So, for my surprise, Greg looked the new business up, and ordered me a t-shirt from them. It was so special to me...I couldn't ask for more! I had to take a picture of it for all to see...
Thanks for the perfect weekend baby...I love you the word after love!

Playing at the Hicks'
Sadie brought Levi and Greyson over to play last week...we just love our little Arnold boys!
Levi has a toy box that we keep here at the condo for him. He decided to be one of the toys IN the box this time...
Red wanted to be a toy in the box too, but there was not enough room...
Red enjoys hangin' out with Greyson...
Levi and the famous new "Pack-Pack"...
Levi gave Red a kiss on his way out the door...
Thanks for coming over to play...we had a blast!
