Phillip Phillip's Concert



Clay, Lindsay, and I went up to Atlanta last night for the Phillip Phillips concert at KSU stadium.  First we went to eat Ethiopian at Desta.  Delicious!  We had thought that the rain was done but it stayed overcast and kept cooling off.  The stage was set up in the middle of the field with lawn seating in front  and we had general admission seats in the stadium.  Needless to say it would have been a little more enjoyable inside.  Luckily we ran by Wal-mart and picked up ponchos and got Lindsay a sweatshirt.  It was drizzly at first and then just COLD and windy.  We almost watched the beer tent get blown away. 
The show was good.  Clay was disappointed that Phillips got "Dave Matthews'd up" with a lot of saxophone added to his music.  It was different than what I had expected but I thought it was good. I agree that the sax was a little much, a little Kenny G-esque and kinda cheesy though.  There were a few ad lib jams with the guitars/percussion that were pretty awesome though.  The concert reminded me a little of some Jonny Lang concerts I have been to.

We were all smiles and ponchos.  Unfortunately my janky droid deleted the picture I took of the menacing clouds and of me and Clay.

Puppy Shenanigans

Killer and Lily roughhousing.
They are ready to go.  Killer got herself all wiggled down behind the luggage so she could sit up straight.  They were not happy when we only went about 5 miles and dropped them off at the Vet.  Lily got spayed while we were gone.  Clay had his conference in Hiawassee and the cabin wasn't pet friendly. 
Lily has decided she loves the bathtub.  She gets in now whenever we go in the bathroom and looks all expectant...like "hey! where is the water?"  Luckily she hasn't figured out how to turn on the water but I am sure that is coming.

She loves to keep her toenails clean.
After it rained last week, Lily dug a hole in the clay in the yard then hopped into bed and on me in the bed.  These are the days that Lily gets called "red devil" instead of Lily.  
If my frisbee throwing skills would improve, I think that she could catch it already.  She does still fetch it though.
She is growing so fast, she is a little over 30lbs now.  Also, she is getting too big for the dog door so we are going to have to put in a larger one.
It was so cold one day recently and Lily was shivering a little so I put on one of Chico's old sweatshirts. She was not sure about it.
Sometimes, Lily has run around enough and decides to lay down and sleep right next to you on your pillow, sometimes she wants to dog-hug you while doing this.
Other times she chills out with Clay and watches television.
