Dora the Educator

Today Dora (and I) went to the Library to teach pre-schoolers about dog safety.

Weekend in the World (Disney World)

Disney World is the best.  I went down for a 3 day weekend to see my mom and Pat while they were there.  It was great and I also got to see Andrew and Lorri!  Take a look to follow out adventures.  Saturday we went to Epcot for the Food and Wine Festival and Sunday we went to a special brunch and then went to the Magic Kingdom for "Mickey's no-so-scary Halloween Party"
