Happy New Year!

"Hay guys, didya miss me?"

Well first off, happy new year! I know I haven't updated very much at all (and I have no excuse), but decided to remedy that by making one of my resolutions to update the blog more often.
I feel terrible too because I haven't blogged about a lot of Chopin's firsts, like his first bath, his first walk, or his first trip to the groomer, but luckily there are a few that haven't been missed yet, like his first birthday!

Chopin has been doing great and has just passed the one year mark, his birthday was on December 31st, we didn't have a party for him since everyone was busy preparing for a New Years gathering, but he's just matured into the most wonderful dog I could ever hope for.


"LET ME IN THE CAR ARE WE GOING TO THE BEACH?"

He also took his first road trip with us just after Christmas, we went to Palm Springs and Chopin (when he wasn't forced to stay in the hotel room) had a blast schmoozing with his other dog friends. I thought he'd fuss more in the car, but he did surprisingly well, thought it was only about a 3 hour car ride, he did manage to chew up his leash when we weren't paying attention...


"Hello I am so fashionable"
We found this adorable little dog fashion store in an outlet mall we went to and bought Chopin a rhinestone collar for his "birthday present", the woman working there was super nice and seemed very knowledgeable about dogs in general. I wish I could remember the store name for next time, but I can't recall it at all.

Anyway, I could write more, but pictures can say so much more than I can ever type (plus this keyboard is terrible and my hands are cold.)

Thanks for reading and have a great day!
