Weekend Photos in Review

January 5, 2014 · Narrative

It was kind of an insane weekend. In the family, friends, and furry kind of way. I wish I had introduced you guys to Charlotte the Hamster earlier (I will have to dig for some previous pictures and tell her whole story another time), but we found ourselves at the vet first thing Saturday morning because her eye was bulging. Turns out it’s common for hamsters, but an emergency. And we are now the proud of owners of a one-eyed hamster.

It was that kind of weekend.

But thankfully, she is fine.

Meet the most patient dog that ever was.

This is the face of a very relieved Hamster Mama this morning when we got to go and spring Charlotte free.

And this is Harry. Another story from our weekend. All I see is Rosie when I look at him, right down to his personality.

    I’m impressed you guys took a hamster to the vet!! I’m not sure my parents would have ever gone for that. But at least she’s okay!

    You’ll have to tell me where you took them for the rock climbing! My boys love it and took lessons over in Chatham last summer, they’d still be doing it if I could make the schedule work during the school year.
