Jake got his first experience with grooming this weekend. He got the works! A bath, a brush out, nails did, ears cleaned, paws treated, and teeth cleaned. Apparently, there was a special going on that gave him a free party collar because we scheduled the service between November 25th and December 25th. Not gonna lie, I laughed out loud at hime when he came out of the grooming room. He was also called a girl as we walked out. We made him wear it for a bit when he got home just so we could laugh at him and then put it on again on Sunday for Jesse's birthday celebration. This collar will make repeat appearances for Christmas Eve, Christmas day and New Year's Eve.

We went to our neighbor's house on Saturday for a holiday dinner consisting of a 22 lb turkey and all the "fixings". It was bustling with people and it was great to be part of that experience. We unfortunately had to leave immediately after eating (before the dessert even) to head to the theater and see the new Sherlock Holmes movie. I made it through my second movie without having to leave partway through to use the bathroom. That's because I paced myself and stopped drinking my Root Beer just in time! 

Sunday was Jesse's birthday! We went to his parents and had a delicious dinner and an even more fantastic dessert as well as watched some football. And by some I mean a lot of football. We got home late (for me) and I relaxed for maybe 20 minutes before heading to bed. And bed is not my favorite place surprisingly. I am having a difficult time sleeping comfortably which is unfortunate because I need to sleep. 

Today we got the delivery of christmas gifts from my parents as well as Jesse's birthday gift. Apparently Jake was looking very closely for something for him and put his head in Jesse's gift bag, stole the tissue paper, and took that to his bed to begin eating! He is such a spoiled entitled dog! 

In baby new - Adin got hiccups for the first time today! It was such a fun feeling :)
