Hot Dogs; On Buns, and Swimming in the Pool

Happy Labor Day! =)

This weekend, Matt and I headed to Newton Falls, Ohio to hang out with his family for Labor Day weekend. We had a fun and relaxing time, full of good food and family.

We got in late Friday night, and got as much sleep as Rocket allowed us to get...(about 3 hours...) The Mondok dogs Niles and Jack weren't too fond of Rocket, and by the end of the weekend, they still weren't! haha. Anyways, Saturday, we headed to one of the biggest fairs in Ohio, the Canfield fair. We walked around in the beautiful weather, enjoyed delicious fair food, and scoped out all the fair had to offer. I saw lots of tractors, antique farm equipment, old offices and other town buildings, crafts, food, rides, and animals! I even got to hold a duck! I LOVE ducks! That was the 2nd fair I've ever been to.
I really wanted to have Olive Garden while we were back in Ohio...and we luckily got to go there Saturday night! I ate WAY too much. It was awesome.



Sunday was the family Labor day picnic! There was a lot of people and a lot of good food there. Matt's aunt and uncle own a bakery, and brought some delicious treats for dessert. Mmm.... Rocket even went for his first swim! He also did some lounging... HAHA!


Monday, we went out to breakfast with some of the family, and that was such a fun time! The rest of the day, we hung out, and enjoyed our last few hours out of the city. Jack began to tolerate Rocket during some fetch too.



On our way back, we were in the plane, and the pilot came over the speaker while we were stopped on the runway. He said "If you look to the left of the aircraft, you will see a coyote with an airport vehicle in hot pursuit!" And we sure did! That coyote was running FAST! It's not everyday you hear or see that!

We're back in NYC and have quite the month ahead of us. Lots of events, fun, and visitors. I'm sure there will be a lot more blog entries to come!
