Hail to the Redskins!

Sunday night, after the wedding, Jason and I went to the Skins Colts game. We had awesome seats and an awesome parking pass, thanks to Walt the ticket master!!! We had a great time even though they lost. It was pretty amazing to see Peyton Manning in person as well. He’s pretty amazing to watch.

Here come the Redskins!

     

Loving the game!

Shelley and Brian’s Wedding

This weekend Jason and I went to Waynesboro for our friends wedding. Shelley and Brian got married at Fairfax Hall in Waynesboro. It was a beautiful wedding and we are so excited for them. Unfortunately, I was a very bad photographer and didn’t take many pictures, actually Jason took most,  but we got a few.

Hike to Catoctin Falls

Jason and I decided to hike the Catoctin Falls trail today since the weather was so nice, the leaves were starting to turn, Flash was feeling better, and we felt like we hadn’t done anything together just the two of us (other than folding laundry and cleaning the house) in a while. Flash had a blast sniffing, getting into everything, and jumping in the creek.

A picture at the falls. Personally, I loved our hike and I was so excited about seeing the 75 foot falls. However, they were more like trickling cascades, not really falls, and they were somewhat anticlimactic.

Update on Flashy (smiling and happy again!)

Flash is back to his old self again after a LONG spell of pano. Now that he has been trapped in his own body for a month he is PSYCHO!!!!! Jason and I would much rather have a nutso dog than the sad pitiful one we had last week.

Virginia Wine Tour Day 2

 

 

On our second day of the winery tours, we went to two wineries. We went to King Family Vineyard  and Pollak Vineyards. The weather was great and King Family Vineyard was having a Polo  match as well.

 

The beautiful view from Afton Mountain.

Dad, with Cole at Janet, at the King Family tasting. The wine was AWESOME!!!! King Family is a large Southern plantation where they hold polo matches and have huge horse stables along with carriage houses, a tasting room, a view of the mountains, and a fantastic atmosphere. King Family was by far our favorite vineyard. We loved the wine and the views. We got several bottles, and also got some goodies for the Trueblood family Christmas.

Virginia Wine Tour Day 1

 

This weekend we took our neighbors, Janet and Cole to VA wine country. They had never been to the Charlottesville area to taste before. On the first day we went to 4 wineries, which may not have been the greatest decision…but we had fun. They fall weather was beautiful, and it was a great day for wine tasting in the mountains.

I’m getting very bored!!!!!!!

 

Flash is slowly but surely getting better. He is still limping a little bit, and he has his good days and his bad days. He wants to play so bad, but between his pain and the buckets of rain we have been getting, Flash hasn’t been able to. He sits and stares out the window. We are hoping he will be running and playing soon.
