My cousin and aunt got in from Montana on Thursday and then my mom arrived on Friday, so all weekend we've been out and about exploring. They leave tomorrow but my mom will be here for five more days and I'm so excited to hang out with her all week--I love having friends and family visit and just doing normal stuff together like grocery shopping, walking Ender, and drinking coffee in my living room every morning.

There's a big field in the park by our house and just recently it got completely fenced in. Rob and I brought Ender there the other night to see if he would want to run around and it was so adorable--as soon as I let him off the leash he took off at a sprint and was having so much fun. He is such a fast dog and I love finding opportunities to let him go at full speed. There are a bunch of squirrels around so it's a much different experience from the regular dog park, but it wears him out just the same (in about half the time).

Sometimes I look at Rob and can't believe I get to spend my whole life with him. I feel so lucky.

I go through these phases where I love eating rice cakes with mayo and sliced tomato, but the other day I got some of that Everything But the Bagel Seasoning from Trader Joe's and sprinkled it over a rice cake with cream cheese. It wasn't exactly a bagel, but it was pretty damn good.

This past month has been so busy. I mentioned that a bit before, but seriously, April was crazy and we travelled a lot. We just got back from Sonoma with some family that was visiting and they fly back home today, then I have quite a bit of work to catch up on before we head down to Santa Barbara to celebrate our anniversary! We've been gone every weekend since the beginning of April. I'm really excited to explore Santa Barbara with Rob for a few days, but then it's going to be good to get home and find our regular routine again. I just can't believe May is here already!

I've recently started drinking enough water for what is probably the first time in my life and it's kind of amazing. 

We've been spending a lot of time re-training Ender on a few things we kind of dropped the ball on when he was a puppy and it's been really awesome. He is getting really good at stay, and it's come in handy so much already! Our next hurdle is to teach him that he's allowed on the couch snd bed, but only when invited. He listens to Rob more than me and is kind of halfway understanding the whole concept--does anyone have any tips?

This weekend we stopped by a farmer's market in Santa Rosa and I bought a box of strawberries that were so good I ate most of them while we walked around. They were bright red and juicy and sweet and it was one of those straightforward moments that just bring you happiness, no matter how simple. I do love spring.

I always feel bad when I let a few weekdays go by without a blog post, but if I don't have anything planned I'd rather just step away than throw something random up. But I'm always interested to hear from readers what they like more--would they rather hear from me every day or maybe less frequently with "better" "content" (whatever that means)? Either way, last week was really busy for us and by the time Thursday and Friday rolled around I was so ready to take a step back and relax that I ended up neglecting the blog a bit.

We had one of those weekends where you simultaneously get a lot done and still manage to find time to take a nap every day (those are kind of my favorite). We finally filed our taxes (woof), had a session with Ender's dog trainer, and did a lot of cooking and lying around. On Sunday I woke up early and went to barre and then the grocery store, so the rest of the day we just lounged around, watching basketball and Friends.

I have loved every season of Girls but this one is quickly becoming my favorite. I always feel weird that my favorite characters in the show are all men, but Elijah is wonderful and I was so into last night's episode featuring mostly him. I also loved Dill and hope he's back for good. Also I am Adam's #1 fan and thought I liked him and Jessa together but I am really rooting for him and Hannah to get back together. Anyone else watching this season?

I'm getting really excited about our trip to Charlotte in a few weeks--I always hate leaving Ender (especially because he has so many friends in Charlotte!), but it'll be really great to get back on the East Coast and see so many people we love. I'm also going to be on my friend Rémy's podcast!
