Recently, Kaleb and I had our engagement pictures taken by our great friend Carl. Carl and his wife Cara have been good friends of ours for a long time. Needless to say we had the funnest time ever having our pictures taken by Carl. Carl is an awesome photographer with a different perspective which you can see through his pictures. Here are just a few...Check out more of our awesome/fun engagement session! I am so excited about these. It was like Christmas for me receiving them!!

Also Kaleb and I have a Knot page. I know it's kind of weird, but we figured it'd be an easier way of updating everyone on the details of what's going to happen. Hopefully it will be updated more frequently as the day gets closer. Here's a link to our page.

Further this week, Evie, my little yorkie (located in the top left picture above and also below) has been really sick this week. I blame this on myself for stupidly switching her dog food to something "healthier" without properly transitioning her. For future reference, if you have a dog (or probably cat), here is what you can do to help them feel better. I've been following these steps and so far it's working, thank goodness.

Steps to Calm Your Dog's Upset Stomach: via Daily Puppy

  • Step 1:
    Don't feed your dog for 24 hours. Any further feeding will only irritate the dog's already upset stomach. If the dog is a puppy feed him after 12 hours.
  • Step 2:
    Give him ice. Since vomiting and diarrhea may cause dehydration it is important to keep your dog hydrated. But giving your dog water may make him queasy and cause additional vomiting. Put ice chips or a couple of ice cubes in his water bowl instead. Replace them as they melt.
  • Step 3:
    Give your dog a small amount of unflavored Pedialyte or Gatorade to help replace electrolytes lost due to vomiting and diarrhea.
  • Step 4:
    Yogurt contains good bacteria that helps to aid digestion. Give your dog a spoonful of plain yogurt to settle his stomach.
  • Step 5:
    Feed your dog a bland diet for the first 48 hours following the fast. Veterinarians recommend boiled rice and chicken. Remove the skin from the chicken. Feed your dog small portions three to four times daily. If your dog tolerates the bland diet for at least two days begin to reintroduce his regular diet slowly over the next few days.

    I was just thinking last night about you and wondering how the wedding planning was going. I know it's a crazy holiday time, but I'd love to call you sometime soon and catch up.
