Last night, Fabio and I joined my dad for a dinner at our favorite Mexican restaurant, Uncle Julio’s!

My dad was in DC for a couple of meetings yesterday afternoon, so he asked if we wanted to dataset meet him for dinner to catch up. Heck yes we do! When we got there we ordered a round of swirls, which are a mix of frozen margarita and sangria. Basically, they’re the best thing ever.
fajitas to share. They were incredibly delicious, as always!

The company wasn’t bad either, and we had a fun night catching up with my dad.
Favorite Snuggler
I don’t know if it’s because it’s extra cold outside or what, but Jack has become the snuggliest dog ever. Every night when we get into bed he gets under the covers, and then curls up in a ball next to us. The other night I guess he had trouble breathing under the covers (understandable) so he stuck his little nose out to breathe.

How funny is this dog? Can you see his tongue sticking out too? I know, I know, I’m sort of a crazy dog lady. But I just thought this was too cute!
Favorite Activity
Ok I realize this post is sort of turning into “why I’m obsessed with my dog” but when I’m stuck at home all the time there’s just not a lot else going on.
I don’t know if I’ve mentioned this on the blog before, but every Monday we brush Jack’s teeth (after the Bachelor, of course).

We actually got a little out of practice with this after his most recent vet visit (sort of like when you study hard for a test and pass, and then slack off), but this week we brought it back into the routine. Jack actually loves the toothpaste, and when we bring out his toothbrush he wags his tail and gets all excited.
Then when we actually start brushing he gets a little annoyed (he’ll try to push us away a bit) but ultimately he lets us clean his pearly whites.

Fabio and I love brushing his teeth not only because it’s good for him, but it’s also incredibly funny to see him trying to lick off the toothpaste while we are brushing. It’s such a fun little Monday night activity! Once we are done brushing he gets one of his Greenie dog treats, which is pretty much the only time we give him one since they’re so darn expensive. The rest of the time he just gets Milkbones from Costco!
Alright folks, let’s end this Jack love fest while we still can. Wherever you are and whatever you do, I hope you have a fabulous weekend! Wish me luck with my walking progress!
Question of the day: Pet owners, what’s your favorite thing to do with your pet? Non-pet owners, what’s the craziest thing you’ve seen someone else do with their pet?
