Poopy Underwear

It was so nice on Friday, Chris had the day off so when I got home for work we wanted to play catch. One of our favorite past times recently. We went over to the park with Maggie and let her roam around in the bushes that are completely ungroomed. A minute later she comes out all proud with a dirty pair of whitey tighties. They were massive! And best of all they had major poop stains on them. Chris and I couldn't keep from laughing and we tried to catch her. She was just too happy frolicking in the grass and playing catch me if you can. When we finally caught her Chris made sure to throw the dirty underwear way on top of the trees so she couldn't get it.

After playing catch for a few minutes we see Maggie again come with something in her mouth…It looked like a big stick, but after a minute I noticed what it was. Old dog poo… She was eating it! Dogs are so gross sometimes! Well to my fun, Chris was on night call, and I had a feeling Maggie would get sick. At two in the morning I hear faint whines and cries. She has been doing this lately for no reason so I just let her cry it out. At five in the morning I hear her howl and cry for at least 10 mins. I get up to what smells like a porta potty leaking in our house. I lifted the sheets off Maggie's kennel and poop…EVERYWHERE! I almost threw up…

I hurried and dragged her outside, forgetting her collar or leash. Poop on my jacket, waiting in the rain, she would not go… 

We went to the 2nd floor of our building where I hosed her down. Still it is 5am and I am half asleep. 

I guess this is maybe similar to what mom's experience? I now sorta get it…

Sunday I was sick :( I slept forever and am still tired! I had to go get medicine because yesterday I checked the drawers and there was no medicine. I really needed to the store and got some zicam and airborne. I get back to the house and look in the drawer and the old zicam where it was empty yesterday was now full and there was medicine and a bunch of cough drops… I thoroughly looked through and Chris did too! I should have looked again! It was kind of a cool experience although I broke the sabbath and felt guilty, you just never know when a spiritual experience will happen. 

Easter Begg Hunt

We did an Easter Saturday this weekend because I will be gone next week in Boston supporting my mom running Boston and welcoming my brother home from his mission! I am so proud of her for qualifying and I am so proud of my brother for serving a full time mission!

 On Saturday we took Maggie to Turner Park right outside our Midtown Crossing apartment. There were probably around 100 plus dogs. All the dogs and owners were in a circle being tempted by all the goodies. There were Easter eggs all over filled with Doggie

treats. I saw a couple of dogs cheating before it started. It's okay Maggie cheated too. I was a little worried that Maggie would get sick, but she seemed to truck on through treat after treat. I attempted to make an easter bunny outfit for Maggie. Of course Chris thought it was a mess and kept saying we are going to dress her outside right? Instead we settled on dressing her in the hall. The sparkles all fell off my old shirt I decorated for her. Now the hall has sparkles everywhere and pee stains. I am pretty sure we left our mark here on Midtown.

Maggie was in the costume contest at the end of the Easter Beg Hunt. She had balloon bunny ears, pink sparkle shirt, and a cotton tail I tied on her little stub tail. We didn`t win first place but I still think Maggie was the cutest dog there :). She even got a doggie cupcake!
