Okay, so you may see these pics and say... Is this a blog repeat? Am I having Blog Deja vu? The answer is no! We went to the beach AGAIN this weekend, and the only thing different was the size of Lucy, so we figured it was still worth snapping some pics... Enjoy!
water break!
taking a quick break to appreciate the sunrise
And just in case you forgot how big she used to be...
This past weekend Ashley was lucky enough to have some good friends come for a visit. Johanne and Sarah traveled to Charleston, and that means that Ashley had to get them out on the water. Here's some pics from the sunset sail we took out of Shem Creek
CHEERS
only the classiest sails on our sailboat
It may have looked like good weather, but it was a bit cold!
With all good cold weather comes a good fire! Here's some pics from our late night backyard fire to warm us back up...
Because of notre dame's last two defeats, lola and Lucy have been in protest of college football... Even after ND had a lead, Patrick still couldn't get his girls on board for the game... Here's hoping for a win!

As we've shown you before, Lola LOVES to jump into the pond at the dog park. Lucy tends to try to do EVERYTHING that Lola does, so here is her attempt at perfecting her jump!
Sometimes we just don't quite have the nerve and stop short of our jump!
LOLA AND LUCY'S PLAYDATE!
Lola and Lucy were lucky enough to have a playdate this weekend with 2 Great Danes from the neighborhood. Despite a huge size difference, they were a great match for each other and played and played and played.
A gentle pat on the head is usually rewarded with a love bite on the paw
While the puppies recovered, Patrick and Ashley got to work on their weekend plans... Tiling a backsplash!
First we went through a dry-run, sizing up and placing the tiles with wax to make sure everything was perfect!
this is obviously very stimulating for the dogs...

Before we knew it, it was game day.... And what better way to spend game-day than to cook some good food and tile your kitchen!
Although Lola was pretty tired, she had enough energy to get dressed for the game
