Furry Friday!

Hi everyone! I had a fabulous anniversary week, and I am really looking forward to the weekend (even though I am working from 6am to 4pm tomorrow)! Then I have my LEED exam on Tuesday, and I am so excited for it to be OVER! There will be much celebrating WHEN I pass the exam (Mr. Pit won't let me say if, as I *AM* going to pass this test, I am determined!).

With all that said, meet Virginia! (I am totally humming the song with the same name by Train)



Virginia is a daschund mix and is every bit as cute as can be!

She is only 2 years old and REALLY needs a home.

I mean, come on, can you say NO to that face? I think not!!

Go check out other pups and kitties that you can adopt at Main Line Animal Rescue this weekend or check out Petfinder for animals for adoption in your area.

Have a great weekend!

p.s, Alison at Blue Bell, top 10 Pit Family dinners EVER! Alison even gave us champagne and wished us a Happy Anniversary personally- HUGE fan of hers, HUGE!!

A very happy 3 years

Happy 3 Year Anniversary to us!

This day (well, it was a Saturday in 2006) I was a bride in the morning and a wife in the afternoon and I have never ever been happier.

I leave you with some pictures of the day, mostly because it makes me happy to think about how amazing that day was, and how it's gotten better everyday since.


Getting ready at my parents house


Married! (And taking pictures inside because it's pouring outside!)


Rocking my comfy custom golf shoes...thanks Footjoy!


We scooped ice cream instead of cutting cake, yum!




And then we were off to St. Lucia and Virgin Gorda for two weeks, yahoo!!

Happy Anniversary Mr. Pit, I love you!

3 years ago today...

We were rehearsing for our wedding and enjoying seeing all our friends in town for the celebration.

This picture shows us standing in a cardboard box, as I always said that it doesn't matter where we are, or where we live, that Mr. Pit and I could have fun and be happy in a cardboard box. So, our groomsman C made it a point to give us a box as a present :)

It was a great rehearsal dinner at Maggiano's and an even better day the day after!

It will be 3 years since we did this :)

My favorite day ever!

Furry Friday!

























Hi everyone and welcome to Furry Friday!

The sun is FINALLY shining in the City of Brotherly Love and I (along with 100,000 others) are thrilled!

We leave for Chicago tonight at 7, so pray for no evening thunderstorms to derail our plans! Then it's a Bridal Shower Saturday morning, then the Bachelorette party that night, followed by a very tired Mr and Mrs. Pit getting back on the plane at 11am on Sunday, eek! (Mr. Pit is NOT joining the bachelorette festivities, he and the groom to be will be up to something baseball related).

So, without further ado, I introduce Alexander! What a perfect preppy name for a perfectly preppy pup!

Alexander was rescued from a commerical breeding facility (a puppy mill) so he's a bit skittish around people at first, but they say if you give him time he is just as snuggly as you'd ever want!!

Alexander is a pure bred West Highland White Terrier (or a Westie for those with the lingo) and he is about 3 years old. He REALLY needs a new home, won't you adopt him today??

Main Line Animal Rescue is over run with dogs recently, so we really need your help! If you are thinking of adding an animal to your family, PLEASE consider adoption first, these dogs are great and are just as worthy a member of your family as a new puppy from a breeder (another plus is that it's COMPLETELY FREE to adopt from MLAR!)

So, on this wonderful (finally) sunny day, go bring Alexander home!

As always, you can visit other dogs at Main Line Animal Rescue HERE or Petfinder HERE !

To Britney, or Not To Britney

Mr. Pit just called and said he could get Britney tickets IN VEGAS ON THE FLOOR for $300 a pop...do we go for it? Buy them and try to flip them on Stub Hub?

Help!!!
