Bridal Shower and Daphne

Last weekend, my maid of honor, Ashley, and her mother threw me a bridal shower down in Portland, Oregon! It was quite fun to hang out with my friends, some of who I hadn't seen in awhile. My mom had not planned to come to this shower and at the last minute changed her mind. It was great to have her there to hang out with my friends as well and meet some people she hadn't met before! On our way back to Seattle we stopped and saw my brother (who lives in Portland) which was great as I hadn't seen him in awhile as well.

All in all, it was a great day, just very long! I think I did a total of about 8 hours of driving and was gone from my apartment for over 12 hours!

I came home to Eddie's dog, Daphne, eagerly waiting for her dinner and to be let out to use the bathroom. Eddie was down in Nevada for the week helping my aunt and uncle with a motocross race. Daphne and I did pretty good for our first real one-on-one adventure together, which is a lot to say for me. As some of you may know, I am not really an animal person, let alone a dog person, so the week had it's challenges, but she and I both survived. Eddie has since reclaimed her and I now only have a few more weeks of freedom until I officially gain this furry little roommate.
