While there, I had a good time looking at all of the doggie dress up items and surprised Ryan by dressing Sadie up in a pair of motorcycle shades.
Sadie is very tolerant of clothes and costumes, but she was not a fan of the glasses. I guess she’ll never be Lil’ Jon. Yeaaaaah.
Since Sadie handled my harassment with grace and dignity, we rewarded her good behavior with a trip to the dog park.
Usually Sadie finds a random tennis ball within five seconds of our arrival at the park, but today the balls were a bit more elusive. (Well, not the real male dog balls. Those were out for the kill and Sadie was looking ripe.)
And speaking of balls and genitalia, have you guys heard about this Weiner guy? Two local news anchors were talking about what would happen if he ran for president. Even if he was a good guy and wasn’t drowning in a pile of controversy for “sexting,” would anyone really vote for a guy named Weiner? I mean, c’mon. America is much to immature for that kind of nonsense. In Ryan’s words, “Would you want a President Titties?” Exactly.
Oh! The dog park… right!
We spent our time at the dog park walking around the trails and eavesdropping on an argument between two dog owners that was quite heated.
We’ve actually seen quite a few throw downs at the dog park. It’s not all rainbows and butterflies when you put a bunch of dogs and their owners in one open area.
Dinner
Eventually we made it home for dinner and split up the food preparation duties. I handled the veggies while Ryan stayed true to his meat man persona and fired up the grill.
While Ryan grilled some BBQ pork chops, I made us roasted Brussels sprouts with sweet potato fries (the last of the bag… sad day).
I told Ryan he should brace himself for a lot more grillin’ in his future because these pork chops were fantastic. Now that it’s summertime, our grill will definitely be put to good use.
Time to grab a Fudgsicle from the freezer!

Your dinner looks so good! Nice and summery 🙂
Please STOP with the stupid dog photos. Your captions are NOT funny, and your photos are over-edited and PINK and weird. Seriously. I can’t believe YOU give blog advice, when your blog is so technologically challenged.
Well aren’t you a peach! I’m sorry you don’t enjoy my blog but please remember that if it upsets you so much, you do not have to read it. I’m not sure I see the point in a mean comment like this. There is a difference between constructive criticism and just being rude.
Get a life Mary. Seriously. If that really is your name.
I love the pictures, and I think the captions are hysterical! If it’s making you miserable, don’t read it 🙂
I love the Sadie pictures! I love her smile 🙂 She cracks me up!
Thanks, Suzanne!
HAHAHA this post has really brightened my crappy morning. Loving presisdent titties
Haha! I love the picture of Sadie with the sunglasses on! Too cute! 🙂
I also like that you made roasted brussels sprouts with dinner! They are my favorite 🙂
Yea…. getting involved in that kind of scandal when that’s your name is just adding insult to injury. His mom was actually my math teacher in HS – I feel bad for her!
Not only was I dying laughing because all of the Sadie picture comment + ‘President Titties’, but I really loved this comment:
“Well aren’t you a peach!” about the comment above!!
Julie, you are hilarious 😀 I just love you & your blog!! 🙂
Julie!
First off I am OBSESSED WITH YOUR BLOG! I got into it back in March and have read it everyday since! I just made your peanut butter granola and egg pizza last night! SO GOOD! You are such a talented blogger and seem like a wonderful person!
I saw that Sheboygan comment! I am from Sheboygan! 🙂 What or who do you know in Sheboygan?
Hope you have a wonderful day!
i wish i knew someone from sheboygan! ryan and his friends kept seeing signs for it when they were driving to michigan for their hiking trip and became obsessed with the name. 🙂 i was immune to it since, as a girl who grew up in palatine, i’ve seen it all my life! they seriously want to move there! 🙂
LOVE your pictures Julie. Keep it up!
This whole post had me cracking up!! I love the baby geese picture!!!!
After watching Idiocracy, nothing would surprise me, least of all us electing someone named Weiner. LOL
Ah, I just got a coupon for some freebie sweet potato fries, I wish I could have them right this second!
In other news, if we elect a president weiner, we will be the laughingstock of the world!! Other country’s versions of South Park and Family Guy will never stop teasing. Hence, my vote will be staying far from him.
Hi!
Ohh my gosh my sister just moved to Orlando from Sheboygan Wisconsin! I thought I commented earlier but can’t find it so sorry if I’m doing it twice! She loves it there!
weiner was not runing for president. he is just a congressman from NY. read the news and get your facts straight!
ehh, sorry! i read the closed captioning on my local news at the gym yesterday and they were saying that was the case. i apologize for the error.
Lol I’m at work right now and I just cracked up when I say that pic fo Sadie and read “My milkshake..” haha
OK you need a post now on what dog owner at the park fight about!!??!! I’m nosy like that. 🙂
oh, i’ll give you the details! one guy was pissed b/c the other guys dog was “harrassing” his… and my “harrassing,” the dog was simply following the other dog. nothing crazy. anyway the overly protective guy ended up putting the other guy’s dog on his leash, holding it away from his dog. obviously this upset the other owner and a long string of f-bombs went down. it was intense!
Wow. Don’t let that guy have kids unless he plans to homeschool! Ha!
Your milkshake comment just killed me. I laughed out loud in my office. Too funny
Since Weiner is resigning from the House of Representatives I highly doubt he would announce a bid for the presidency. Thousands of people in NY elected him to be a Congressman so it seems as though people can get past the name….
i heard two local news anchors discussing this yesterday (before he announced his resignation) and apologize for the misunderstanding. i’ve updated the post to reflect that he isn’t ACTUALLY trying to run for president.
M is correct and I hightly doubt the closed captioning said that he was running for president.PBF just need to pay less attention to working out, clothes and food and more to the world around you.
sorry – it was a dialogue between two anchors… it’s just what i saw.
also, i’ll edit the post to reflect this. i apologize for the misunderstanding.
Gosh Julie, how dare you think about working out, clothes and food when you could be reading about cheating weiners??
Oh no big deal Julie, it was funny in my book! Also, those pork chops look fantastic!
