Our day began with a five-hour drive from Jekyll Island to my family’s house where we drove to pick up Sadie. They were kind enough to watch her for the weekend and took good care of our little girl.
We hung out with my mom, dad and sister for a few hours and even enjoyed a short boat ride before hitting the road.
Sadie is such a boat dog and loved the time on the water.
Around 4 p.m. we hopped in my car to drive back to Orlando.
Sadie preceded to make us pay for leaving her behind over the weekend by gassing up a storm and hot boxing our car for the entire two-hour drive.
Judging by the feedback I received on the PBF Facebook page, Sadie isn’t the only animal who makes her owners pay for leaving them behind. I know animals can’t talk, but they sure can communicate.
Dinner
When we arrived home, Ryan and I wanted a quick dinner to eat while we got organized for the week ahead and unpacked our bags from our weekend vacation.
A frozen pizza sounded ideal, so we split a California Pizza Kitchen roasted veggie thin crust pizza.
The pizza was delicious! Ryan and I are big fans of CPK frozen pizzas but never tried this particular flavor until tonight. I think it’s new because I couldn’t find it on their website, but it’s a winner!
A sugar cookie was enjoyed on the side.
Off to finish throwing everything into the laundry unpacking!
Katelyn says
Glad you had such a great weekend! 🙂
Jamie aka "Sometimes Healthy Girl" says
haha my dog used to have “ways” to show me his feelings as well! Dogs are smarter than we give them credit for 🙂 I’ve never tried a CPK frozen pizza but that one looks good!
Holly says
LOL! that is hilarious- ‘hotboxing our car’- I could not stop laughing 😀
Sadie must of enjoyed some great treats while she was with her Grandparents 🙂
Lindsay@InSweetnessandInHealth says
haha..has she ever passed gas and then turned around to see where it was coming from?? Btw, I made some chocolate chip oatmeal cookies today that you would probably LOVE, they were a little crunchy around the edges and chewy in the center…delish 🙂
Hayley @ hayley daily says
Hahaha, aww Sadie! She’s adorable…but I totally know what you mean about the doggy gas. Oddly enough, it’s our smallest girl (a boston terrier) that can out-gas the others (a lab and lab mix!). Sounds like she got some nice goodies with the grandparents! 🙂
Jayme @ Runner-n-Spice says
Aw the pic with you and sadie is priceless. So cute.
Speaking of Sadies…Oprah’s dog Sadie is on the cover of this month’s edition of O magazine 🙂
Lee @ in the pink of condition says
Aww Sadie is just the cutest (and maybe the smelliest too?)
April says
my dog does the same thing! he is the worst! and it’s always at bad times too!
Bee Goes Bananas says
I’ve never tried that kind of pizza before, but it looks delicious!
Sadie is such an adorable dog!!
Lindsey @ Happy or Hungry says
Haha…I love the caption “And it felt so good” haha.
One time I accidentally zipped my friend’s cat into my suitcase for three days while I was visiting her (and we went away for the weekend)…it was an accident, I’m not a horrible person!
Anyway, when we got back and realized what had happened, we let him out and he immediately peed on her bed. Whoops.
But he didn’t go AT ALL the entire time he was in the suitcase. Pretty impressive 😉
Alison @ The Peacock Diaries says
Just returned from vacation this week and I got a golden shower from my dog upon my return (while I was eating dinner – gross!). So, consider yourself lucky!
That pic of Sadie in the car is priceless 🙂
Sarah says
LOVE CPK pizzas. Those and Trader Joe’s frozen pizzas are the absolute best.
Ashley says
My dog does that too. Then she will look at us reproachfully, as if it is our fault.
Cait @ Beyond Bananas says
I think dog gas is SO much worse then people gas. And.. theres nothing you can do about it! Especially in the car!! ahh
JennyO says
Newman’s Own frozen pizzas are great too!
Kelly says
I love CPK frozen pizzas too! They are excellent! Although I have such a soft spot in my heart for Totinos! They are so cheap and made for a good dinner on a college kid’s salary! haha!
Samantha Shelton says
Sounds like you had a great weekend! I’m gonna have to keep my eye out for these CPK frozen pizzas up north!
Holly @ The Runny Egg says
Oh Sadie was just trying to let you and Ryan know how much she missed you! 🙂
Kristen @ The Red Velvet Life says
That is hilarious about Sadie, but I’m sure it wasn’t funny at the time – ick! 🙂 My parents’ dogs also tend to have gas issues – and I can laugh about it because I don’t have to live with ’em. hehe. They’re worth it 🙂
Chelsea @ Go Chelsea Go! says
I love CPK frozen pizzas, but I’ve never tried that one before! Looks yummy!
And I totally agree–pets do have their ways of communicating 🙂
Jenn from Much to My Delight says
Your weekend makes me want to trade in these city streets for some southern sunshine! Your weekend looks absolutely divine!
Jenny @ Fitness Health and Food says
Sadie most certainly isn’t the only one that makes us remember that we’ve been away. My husband went to visit family this week and to keep our little furry ones happy I stayed home! 😛
Katelyn @ Chef Katelyn says
Ahhhh I love boats so much! We just got one last summer and I canNOT wait to get my boating license!! Aweee Sadie is the cutest 🙂
Carey says
Sadie is such a ham! But I definitely know what you mean, my dogs have been known to leave some “silent but deadlys!”
Jessica @ The Process of Healing says
I know what you mean! My cats get SO mad at me when I leave them!
Gina @ Running to the Kitchen says
It’s so gross when they do that and seriously nothing smells worse than dog gas!
Alaina says
That is just too too funny what Sadie was doing in the car. I burst out laughing at that picture with that caption. 🙂
Kate says
Our dog used to have gas attacks, pe-yoo! It’s got to be the worst smell ever.
Ashley @ Coffee Cake and Cardio says
HAHAHA!!! What a fantastic post. Oh Sadie!
Cat @Breakfast to Bed says
My dog chooses to ignore us for a few days after we get back. She is so obstinate.
Liv @ The Salty n' Sweet says
LOL! Oh Sadie….
Glad you got home safely 🙂
Katie (dailymaiermusings.blogspot.com) says
I’ve got about 200lbs worth of dogs (2 big ones!) and whenever we pull our suitcases out, one throws up, and one runs around like a maniac being bad because he knows we are leaving them. Not fun!
Cait's a Runnerchick says
haha….gas attack, classic! and i totally agree, the wrath i get from my kitty anytime i go away for a little bit is almost not worth leaving! those animals make us pay any way they can. hopefully sadie’s all gassed out at least for now.
glad u’re back safe and sound and pizza + cookies makes for a tasty din din! 🙂
Millie says
Sadie’s adorable, she looks so happy. Boat dog lol.
Katie says
Love that yellow dress!! Sadie makes me want to give her a big hug
Khushboo says
I’m pleasantly surprised with the pizza toppings! Normally frozen pizzas skimp on the veggies!
Monika @ Powered by Paprika says
That veggie pizza looks divine! Def. doesn’t look frozen at all.
Glad to hear you had a good trip!
Corrie Anne says
That dinner looks simply DELICIOUS!!!!!!!!! And that cookie. Ok. I think I need a midnight snack!
Ellie@fitforthesoul says
Loved seeing through your events during the getaway~:D
And I just emailed you regarding my address info. Have a blessed night Julie~
Samantha @ Mama Notes says
You are freaking adorable and that pizza looks aaaaamazing!!
Amber @ Stop and Smell the Wildflowers says
Hahaha! Yep, dogs have no shame when it comes to passing gas! Silent, but deadly. 🙂
Laura says
I am loving the captioned sadie photos-hilarious!
Jemma @ Celery and Cupcakes says
It looks like you had such an amzing weekend!
Claire @ Live and Love to Eat says
Your photos are really making me wish we had a beach trip planned this summer!
That’s my favorite CPK pizza for sure – Amy’s version is good too!
Hope says
I loved your weekend recaps! It looks like you and Ryan had a wonderful getaway! 🙂 I would love to plan a weekend getaway sometime this summer. It looks like a fun time 🙂
Lissy says
after a week long vacation one time I was hanging out on the bed with Princess when she decided to pee all over me and the sheets. She made her feelings quite clear.
Danielle says
Dogs can communicate? Hmmm, let’s see…..My husband and I lived with my parents for a few months after we got married. Katy (the family doxie) used to love sleeping in my bed after I went to school/work. She however did not like sharing the bed with my husband. When she tried to go in the room after I left and found him still sleeping she wasn’t too happy. She would leave large puddles of pee just outside our bedroom door. Then we moved out of my parents house and Katy decided for two weeks (literally two weeks) that she was not going to acknowledge me for leaving her (my hubby she still loved). When I came over, and I basically did every day since I worked so close by, she would run to the door excited for a visitor. However, when she realized it was me, she would turn her nose up, turn her back to me and walk away. Oh and the time my dad pissed her off she left a pile of poo just outside the bathroom door just after he went in. When he came out he stepped right in it. I think he learned his lesson cause she never did it again.
