chachi jammies

look what i found at target. chachi pajamas for me! well i just had to get them. i love how paul frank reminds us to not take life so seriously. (and i love that he added a chihuahua to his cast of characters.) we should have fun everyday and not sweat the small stuff.

temecula dog park & froyo!

after our beach adventure on saturday, we headed up to temecula on sunday.

i used my handy dandy dog park finder app and found margarita community dog park. it was really hard to find as there are NO signs on the property that it even existed. it is hidden way behind the closed down ymca and not anywhere near the human park. it's as if they don't want anyone to know it's there! we were looking for it for quite a while in triple digit temps but i was stubborn to find it and didn't give up. bailey deserved some off leash time and i was determined to give it to her.

unfortunately we were the only ones there but that's ok. it looked to be fairly new and was full of trees and green lawn!!! there were two separate fenced sections, one for big dogs and the other for small dogs. each side had a water fountain and a cement park bench. isn't it pretty?

she enjoyed sniffing the scents and relaxing on the cool lawn under the trees.

it was a scorcher of a day...

...so after the dog park we went to cool off with some frozen yogurt at mangoz.

we had a great weekend, full of fun and adventure... and lots of coffee. it doesn't take much to tire little bailey so two entire days away from home had bailey pretty much zonked, but in a good way.

do you have any adventures planned for you and your pack?

have a great weekend my friends-

three dog bakery

after bailey's first visit to the beach, we went to the three dog bakery in del mar, ca. the closest store to our home is about 40 minutes away, so since there was one near our outing for the day, we decided to stop in.

we bought bailey a little tee to remember our weekend by and the nice lady gave her a sample treat bag.

perfect fit!

when you go on vacation, does your doggie come home with a momento?

bailey goes to the beach!

even though we live in so cal, we had never taken bailey to a beach. well on saturday, that grave injustice was remedied. our original plan was to go to del mar dog beach but since that is an off leash beach, we thought the dogs there might be a bit overwhelming for bailey's first visit. so we went to cardiff state beach instead. all the dogs were leashed and under the control of their humans.

bailey wasn't too thrilled with the ocean and kept her distance most of the time. the only time she got her feet wet is when i lifted her up and stuck her in the tide. hey, i had to get at least one picture of her in the water.

she was much happier on the dry sand.

she thought the kelp was very interesting and spent quite a lot of time with it and had to stop and check out each cluster.

i took a LOT of pictures so it was really hard settling on just these few to post. i could have posted dozens but i didn't want to overload you.

i hope you enjoyed this little peek into bailey's first day at the beach.
