Teach!




This blog is just all about my little puppy Teach.

His name is actually Edward Teach, who is also known as Black Beard. When we got this little guy he was only 8 weeks old and had the name Patches. We liked the patch idea, like a pirate, but not Patches. 

Thanks to Google we looked up famous pirates, and after going though a random list we settled on Teach.

Sometimes I joke and wish his name was Learn.

Here are just some random pictures off my phone of him or his destruction.

This pink fuzz is from a dog pillow that Teach apparently liked less fluffy.



This is coming back from the dog park. He had fun, but also decided he liked to play in water and dirt. 

This is just him laying a field.

Him still as a smaller puppy.

Bowling!


 I don't know about your neck of the woods but for the last week or so we have had nothing but rain pretty much every day. It rains all day and all night and everything is wet and cold.

This weekend we were suppose to go camping, but due to the weather we decided to sleep in late. When the weather did break a little New Dude and I took the puppy for a run around the neighborhood.

When we came back the question was now what? New Dude was like, let's go bowling!

I hadn't been in a while and it is inside so we went.

Three games later I came in second for one and lost the rest. New Dude and his friend both won at least one game.

I think the best part is that when we arrived, around 2:30pm there were very few people there. When we left there was a steady stream of people coming in and filling up all the empty lanes.


I enjoy going to places when it is more empty than full. I get tired of waiting in line or my turn all the time. Sometimes I just want to do it and do it now!

Any other bowling fans out there? What is your average? Time time I was in the 80s vs my normal 60s. I was excited!

Glow in the Park 2015


A few weeks ago I went for run with these great people. 

New Dude helped put the glow on the dark paint on my face. I think I'll do it myself next time.
Or, go for clown face. Nothing says scary like clowns.


The race was lots of fun. We went through people throwing colored power at us, squirt guns full of colored water, two giant bubble pits, and more colored powder.

The littlest one was in a stroller. He never wanted to get out and he also never wanted to go through any of the color stations.

However, when he got home he told his mom he had the best time ever.

Little kids are conflicting and confusing some times.

I however, went through all color stations and had a blast. 

If this race comes to an area near you I would recommend running it. It was fun little night run. They had cool little glow sticks on the side to light the path, the color stations were fun, and just seeing all the people wearing glow stuff was fun. 

Has anyone else run this race or one similar? If so please let me know what your thoughts are with a comment below. Thanks and have a wonderful day.
