A Weekend With Reese

Biggie + Reese 

Isn't Reese like the cutest dog ever? I was lucky enough to spend a whole weekend with him. My work is a very dog friendly place and almost everyone brings their dog to work. One of my coworkers asked if I could dogsit Reese for the weekend while she was on vacation. Reese and I had already become BFFs at work so I was more than happy to watch him.  

My friend Amy has a dog name Biggie that looks just like Reese. We decided that it would be fun to take the dogs to Prospect Park in Brooklyn. So on Saturday, Amy, her boyfriend and I brought our dogs, grabbed lunch and walked in the park all day long. 

Besides taking Reese to the park we hung out all weekend like best friends. We went to bed together, watched Netflix together and I basically took him with me everywhere I went. We were attached at the hip. On Sunday morning I went on a run in the park and my roommate volunteered to watch him for 30 minutes. When I got home, Reese was waiting for me at the door. I was dying, I thought it was the cutest thing ever. He was jumping on top of me, so excited that I had come home.  My roommate was like, "he has serious separation anxiety when you aren't around." 

Unfortunately I had to give Reese back to his momma on Monday morning. I can't believe how attached I get to this dog. But, I have these adorable videos and pictures to remember our fun 3 days together :)

November Recap

It's December so it is time to do a November recap on my blog. It's a little late to post about November but it has been difficult balancing my time between work and the holidays. My blog hasn't been a major priority and I also haven't been super diligent about taking a lot of pictures. 

My family came into town for Thanksgiving. This was my first Thanksgiving in New York. I am glad I stayed in the city this year. I wanted to experience the holidays in Manhattan. While they were here, we went to the Macy's Day Parade, walked around Rockefeller Center and made sure to hit all the shops on 5th avenue. Being together with family is a beautiful thing and I am thankful my family and I have been fortunate to still be able to spend time together even though we are all spread out. My brother and sister in law live in New Jersey, my sister Jen lives in Boston and my youngest sister has been on a study abroad in London for the past few months. 

Next week I will be on a plane back to Utah to spend Christmas at home. I can't wait to see my friends and family that I haven't seen in a while and I am definitely looking forward to the break off work. The holidays are my favorite time of the year and I am really looking forward to these next few weeks :)
