Total Basset Case: Weekend Wrap Up: A Weekend Long Blate

Weekend Wrap Up: A Weekend Long Blate

This weekend was very exciting and much anticipated.
Kait came to see us!!!
This weekend had been in the works for a long while and it finally came and I couldn't have been more excited!
(i.e. get ready for picture overload)

Friday afternoon I picked Kait up in the airport...baggage claim Love Actually style.
We came back to the house so her and Floyd could meet and start their love and snuggle fest.
We then Skyped with Anne and then headed out to celebrate National Margarita Day.
Saturday we ventured to Jungle Jims and the outlets.
J.Crew outlet has some great deals going on right now...just fyi ;)
Saturday evening we made some yummy food, Kait stretched some real mozzarella for us that was DELICIOUS and Autumn and Katie came over to have wine and hang out! 
Sunday morning we Skyped Casey and Pierre for a basset Skype session.
We loved it and seeing Pierre and Casey in person and the personality similarities between the 2 bassets.
The rest of the day was spent exploring Cincinnati a little, more shopping, dinner and Graeters.
You can't have visitors to Cincinnati and not take them to Graeters.
Sunday night we rounded out with night with more Floyd snuggles and Oscar watching.

It was SUCH a fantastic weekend and I am ever more thankful for the blogging community and the great friends it has brought into my life!  Kait and I clicked instantly a few months ago and knew this weekend would be fabulous and without a doubt, it was.  It has been as if we have been friends for years and years. Plus she got to meet Floyd in person and they were an instant match made in heaven.  I'm not sure Floyd is going to let her leave tomorrow, he may be climbing in her suitcase right this instant.

How was your weekend?

Helene said...

Erin said...

It's really not fair that she got to meet him in the real life flesh. I mean even the back of his head while skyping makes me giggle. Sounds like you guys had so much fun together! And I mean you and Kait not Floyd this time haha

Kait said...

I just looked again that that photo montage...it's really a wonder I have any friends..

Brooke Hamilton said...

I'm not a fan of margaritas (bad tequila experience in college) but they look really good! And, my heart just melted at the puppy skype!!!

Joanna said...

Ok...the pictures of Floyd this morning made my day!

Jen said...

What a fun weekend! I haven't had a chance to meet many bloggers, but everyone always seems to have so much fun when they do get together. I bet those skype sessions were a blast also...did the dogs even notice each other on the other end? My pups would proably not know what was going on until the other dog started barking, and then it would start a full on bark-off! BTW: I love that pic of the back of Floyd's head. Makes me want to scratch his fuzzy ears!! Happy Monday :)

Kati & the mozzarella. Lovingggg it. And Floyd skyping is even more fantastic.

Next you'll be sending him out on his first date. With a chauffeur of course, that chauffeur being you with a camera because those photo ops would be AWESOME!

Katie said...

SO SO FUN!!! You two are precious so glad you did this!
