Football, more ponies and the stomach flu

K went to her first football game on Saturday. She had a great time tailgating enjoying snacks. The home team moved their fan section and so we ended up near the visiting team. K couldn’t have been more excited visiting the mascot, the cheerleaders and asking the meow meow (it was cougar) to come back. She tried to visit the cougar up close, but he scared her. We ended up with amazing seats and were in the second row close to the action. T also got special tickets so we were able to go to the press box, the directors section for her weekly ice cream which she insisted on holding even in the press box on the new carpet, on to the field, to the top of the stadium which had just been redone and was beautiful. K also joined us for peanuts at the goose and had a great time seeing all the other kids that were there. We dropped her home and met our friends for a relaxing dinner.

On Sunday we went for the standard coffee and market, but after 6 hours of sitting on Saturday we didn’t get our usual toy book time in the shop. Twee twee wasn’t at the market and when I asked her where he was she looked at me and said he was taking a nap. We often talk about the dogs that play at the dog park in our neighborhood and when we don’t see them she reminds me that they are na night, napping or eating. It is very funny. We also decided yesterday to go back to Half Moon Bay and so we went to the beach, she wasn’t as concerned about her toes getting dirty and was able to sit in the sand, play in little ocean puddles and enjoy the dogs. We had a wonderful lunch (OUTSIDE) at the Ritz and even used an umbrella because it was so warm. We went back for the pony ride on the way home and she was just as excited. At one point they stopped and she shook her whole body to try and get the horse to move. We followed by another relaxing dinner with our friends and excited about a fantastic weekend.

Unfortunately at 4am the nice weekend ended… K woke up crying with the stomach flu. We had to clean her bed and give her a bath in the middle of the night. She also threw up once more in the night and once before I left for work. She is obviously not feeling well – let’s hope this is over soon.

I was getting my tests done at Stanford and I assume that is the game you were at, I should have stopped by!! Hope K Goose is feeling better.
