Cubs vs Padres - We win & help the Giants!

Cubs can't come to town without us getting a chance to see them. Last night me and Nick went and sat in awesome seats 6 rows behind homeplate. He is friends with a guy who has season tickets and they trade Oregon football tix for Padres tix once per year.

Wrigley - Day 5

Things are getting better by the hour. He's learning more and more and becoming very social (with us - he's still scared of other people petting him until he smells them), playful and "puppy-like" with us. He has started to give us kisses and attempt to bite us. We took him to a local park this morning before it got too hot so he could see/ hear kids playing to socialize him.

Yesterday we had puppy school from 9-10am but it went until 11am. He was so tired he literally slept all afternoon - in some funny positions!

 He loves his squeaky toys and bones but can't seem to figure out what to do with a tennis ball when we bounce it towards him. We started giving him ice since it's so hot outside and he is hilarious with it. When I put it on the floor he tries to paw at it to get it to come closer but it ends up sliding across the floor and he licks his way to it and does it again.

We have a puppy!

Meet Wrigley, the newest addition to our family. He's a 12 week old Labradoodle (Labrador and Poodle mix) who is absolutely adorable and big already!

Iowa vs U of A

We went to Tucson, AZ this weekend for the Iowa football game. My first time seeing them in person was great, minus the fact they lost. We went with Nick's best friend Ryan and his fiancee Jessica. It was about 110 degrees while tailgating and 90 at 10:30pm during the game. Needless to say I'll never be living in Arizona.

Right before going into the game all sweaty from tailgating all afternoon.
