Sunshine makes me happy!

Have I mentioned that I love spring?! I LOVE spring weather! This past week has been really rainy and gross, but luckily it cleared up for the weekend and we've had the perfect weather!

Matt is doing an internship at the Zoo and has to work from 8am-5pm on Saturdays. It totally stinks to have him gone all day, but I go up and eat lunch with him for an hour. Today we had a picnic! I picked him up at the entrance to the zoo and we fought our way through the INSANE traffic at the zoo for about 20 minutes before we could find a place to park. We sat under a nice shade tree and enjoyed a little lunch together...with Rudy, too, of course!

After I dropped Matt back off, Rudy and I headed home to give him a bath. It's so funny, because he sees me walk into the backyard with towels, his scrub brush, and the soap and he literally runs the other direction. He absolutely abhors being bathed; it is a struggle the whole time. He does, however, love the drying off process, which I think it hilarious. He just loves towels. Then we took a little walk in the sun to make sure he was totally dry before coming back into the house.

Tonight, Matt and I grilled some burgers and ate outside. It was lovely. I just can't get enough of being out in the gorgeous weather, opening up the house and letting the breeze come through, and nothing tops it off like a delicious meal outside!

In other news...we're finally taking Rudy to the vet this week. In one of my earlier posts, I talked about my concerns about the spot on Rudy's nose. Well, it just keeps getting bigger and he's started messing with it more and more. We've been putting off the vet for a couple of reasons, the main one being that neither of us have had time to take off school or work to take him in. Now that Matt's done with school, he's going to take him into the vet this week. I know it's taken us too long, but I promise we're good parents to him in other ways!
