A traveling weekend

Last weekend was fun. 

Saturday morning, we dropped Zora off at the vet and hit the road to Virginia.  We got to Dalhgren around 12:30 and checked into our hotel.  We headed to Kat's house.  Her parents had just gotten in from NC, so we just hung out talking to them and holding the baby.  George is so cute.  He makes the funniest faces while he is sleeping.  They make him look like a little old man. The baptism was Saturday afternoon.  It was went well and was quick.  George slept through the whole thing.  He let out a cry when Kat positioned his head over the basin, but when the priest poured the water on him, he stopped.  Afterwards we went to Robert's family's house.  It was good to be able to see Kat and Robert and hang out. 

Sunday morning, we got up and drove to Alexandria to see Alyssa and William.  We went to brunch in Old Town.  If I shifted left and strained my head I could see the water.  We then walked around an art fair in Old Town.  Some of the art was really cool and some made you wonder who would ever buy it.  I found a couple I really liked for the house, but wasn't going to pay over $1000 for it.  
 
The drive home was good.  There wasn't a lot of traffic.  We stopped at Dairy Queen so Pete could have a dipped cone.  That is one downfall of the South.  There aren't a lot of soft serve stands.  I really wanted to stop at Friendlys but I love Pete and gave in. 
 
When we got home, I got some laundry started and did the grocery shopping.  Zora had to be picked up in a 10 minute window, so we headed to the vet's office.  When we got there the parking lot was full.  People were hovering outside the door wanting to be the first one to get in.  Of course the first person in wasn't just picking up his pet.  He had to pay, which you shouldn't be able to do.  Finally Zora came out without a collar.  The lady came back with her collar and told me that Zora had been fed, but hadn't eaten. That is so abnormal for our dog.  She eats everything within seconds.  We think we need to find a new kennel.  The service has gone downhill and they are so expensive. 
 
This week has been busy.  Work has been crazy.  I have been so tired lately.   Wednesday night I went to bed at 7pm and didn't get up til 8am. 
 
That's it for now.  Once again I am in the middle of a project review meeting.  They seem like a good time to update blogs.
