Bulldog kissing and a whole lot more......






This weekend was the annual Sea Witch Festival in Rehoboth. On Saturday, it rained a bit, but it didn't keep the thousands of children and adults (dressed up) away from the parade! Aaron and I sat at a local restaurant on the main drag as we watched the hour long parade. It was pretty good for a small town parade!

Next, I hit the bulldog kissing booth.....because, yes, bulldogs are my favorite dogs after Sidon and Pepper, of course. At the booth, I encountered Porterhouse, the sweet looking dog with a face to die for. The dollar that I gave for the sloppy kiss goes toward helping rescue homeless bulldogs in the Frederick, Maryland area.

On Sunday, we went back to the main drag to check out day 2 festivities of the Sea Witch Festival. At about 1pm, a dog costume contest/parade began. We brought Sidon and Pepper out (not dressed up) so they could laugh at all of the dogs that were dressed up by their owners ;) It was amazing the lengths that owners went to to win this contest......one of the pictures shown here is of a wagon that a few people made to put their 4 Chihuahuas in for the parade. The people who made the wagon dressed up as if they were from the wild west. Talk about people who need hobbies!

So it was an eventful weekend, and through all of this, Aaron managed to work 4 shifts at the new restaurant where he is waiting tables. I'm just awaiting my second training at "the Republic" tomorrow, where I hope to learn more than just how to take down shoplifters :)
