Happy 28th Birthday Dustin!

On June 3rd Dustin turned 28! We decided since we have not been to Pipe Creek for awhile we would head to the hill country to celebrate the big 2-8. Friday afternoon Dustin and I headed to our favorite "get away" for some R&R. We got there around 6pm, and got things unloaded. Trigger LOVES going to Pipe Creek. He has 106 acres of freedom to run and eat an abundant amount of deer poop. A vizsla's dream. Sometimes we even catch him eating out of the deer protein feeder. He is crazy...we all know. Friday Dustin and I headed into town to get some dinner at our favorite mexican food place El Rio, and Wal-mart (not a favorite) for some pool shock. My Mom has the worst pool guy in pool history. It is a saline pool which is supposed to be less maintenance...when you have a somewhat good pool guy. We got there, and there was algae in the pool. Our pool guy decided to take a two week trip to Alaska to fish. Not that he took care of the pool anyways. It is usually green when we arrive, and he ALWAYS has an excuse why he hasn't come to clean it. ANNOYING. Anyways, we went home and shocked and cleaned the pool up.

Saturday Dustin woke up at the crack of dawn as usual, and Millie followed so she could eat breakfast. Trigger usually sleeps in any other day, unless he is in Pipe Creek. He was up and outside by 6:30am, and did not come in till we came in that evening. Dustin and Trigger went on an RTV ride while Millie and I snoozed. Dustin came back in the house cracking up when they got back. Apparently they rode down to the creek and Trigger bailed off the RTV and down into the creek. By the time Dustin got down there he was in the middle of the creek slapping the top of a turtles shell. I wish I could have seen this. Poor turtle! He came out of the creek after the turtle went for deeper water. My parents and Mrs. Collins came around noon, and we all hung out by the pool for the rest of the afternoon. I wanted to lay out on the float, but Trigger was hogging it the whole time. Here is a picture of him and Dustin floating in the pool:


Millie rested under a shade tree by the pool like a normal dog. My sister and her crew of boys came later that afternoon, and we all went out to eat for Dustin's birthday. We went to George Strait's Restaurant; Scenic Loop Cafe. They have a great patio, a live band, and awesome food. We had a nice relaxing weekend. Trigger (who did not relax) has been sleeping for 3 days straight.
