Last week I lost my job. Crappy, right?! Meh, not really. Lack of training sure does make a job difficult! I almost have a sense of relief, and now I can focus on my blog again! I’m going to enjoy my time by going on more adventures with Wynston. To celebrate life, I decided to head up north to Sedona, AZ for a couple days to take advantage of the cooler temperatures. On the IHG website (I always stay at IHG hotels) I found the Kimpton Amara Resort & Spa in Sedona. What got me was their pet policy: “At every Kimpton boutique hotel, we invite you to bring your furry, feathery or scaly family member — no matter their size, weight, or breed, all at no extra charge. If your pet fits through the door, we’ll welcome them in.” Incredible, right?! I booked a room and started on our 2.5 hour drive a couple days later. Well, let me tell you – the resort did not disappoint. In fact, I received the best service EVER, and I travel a lot…
Appreciate the Moments: April Photo Challenge
April showers bring May flowers…unless of course you live in Arizona because we don’t know what rain is. It seems like we’ve been experiencing Spring all year round. In fact, it feels more like we’re already headed into summer with all of these 90° days we’ve been faced with as of late. While we have spectacular mornings and evenings, the days are too hot to enjoy the outdoors. Our April Appreciate the Moments photo challenge is “spring,” and we improvised a bit…
Strut Your Mutt Phoenix & Dogtoberfest 2017 Recap
This year has been full of “firsts” for us, so why stop now? You all know that I’m obsessed with pet events, and my goal this fall has been to check out new ones that I’ve never been to before. Wynston and I were blessed to get the invitation to attend Strut Your Mutt Phoenix, a national pet event hosted by Best Friends Animal Society. Wynston would be making a celebrity appearance and taking photos with attendees at the Instapet Tent, along with Instagram stars Stogie and Princess Lily Grumps. Count us in!!! That same evening was Dogtoberfest, a small local event a few miles from our house, and I wanted to be sure to check that out as well. Here’s a recap (with lots of photos of course) of the events!
Welcoming Fall with Barktoberfest 2017
Fall in Arizona means it’s pet event season! Unlike a majority of the country, October kicks off weekly pet events around the Grand Canyon State because the weather is finally cooling down. Barktoberfest, which benefits Friends for Life Animal Rescue in Gilbert, is the perfect way to begin the next few months of pet event fun. The 18th annual Barktoberfest was once again a success, and this year I was able to share the joy with my mom and her dog Cooper! Although it was a bit toasty, Wynston and I had a blast.
Arizona Dogs’ Day in the Garden #dbgdogs
Dogs’ Day in the Garden is a semi-annual event held at the Desert Botanical Garden in Arizona. This relaxing affair benefits the Arizona Humane Society. Last time I went to this event was in 2014, and I’m happy to report that the January 2017 dogs’ day was even more fun!
