On Friday evening michio and I went night fishing with one of his buddies that he went to high school with and his wife to start off our weekend.
unfortunately no pics...
but with took a boat out to part of the river where there is a beach.
we made a bonfire cuz it was super cold!
(and for light of course)
michio caught 2 catfish, and i caught one.
michios friend justin and his wife tiffany didnt catch anything =[
but we did have some yummy hot chocolate!
on saturday, michio and i picked up the most darling puppy.
she stayed with us until sunday.
michio's dad has a dog, but she is getting super old and look like she might kick the bucket soon.
he has also been wanting a new puppy for a while now.
we found a great deal on a purebred black lab who came from 2 hunting parents.
seriously, that is the most ideal dog for michio's dad since he hunts.
she's also a girl, and michio has this grand idea to eventually breed this new puppy with his sisters dog, so we can have a free puppy later down the road when we have a house.
here she is!
we surprised his dad with her on sunday.
they named her Atsuhime (Atsu for short)
it translates to Princess from japanese
she LOVES to cuddle
i was so impressed that she actually went to the bathroom right away every time we took her outside, and she comes when you whistle =]
michio wanted to keep her of course... =[
someday michio!
sunday after we gave michios dad his puppy, all of the family on the takahashi side went to his dads.
his dad and step mom just came back from japan, and had tons of gifts for us!
we've already eaten most of the goodies so i don't have any pics of those =/
my favorite thing was some japanese prints that they brought home!
i will have to post them later!
monday, we hung out with michios friend justin and his wife tiffany again.
they took us dirt bike riding!!!
i have never ridden before, and it was michio's second time.
his first time was with them a few weeks earlier.
ok.. so i was super scared cuz ive never done any sport so extreme,
but i have always wanted to and totally loved it!!!
we drove a few miles up there river near our house.
there's an area where they have tracks.
its not like a man made one where they build jumps,
but more of a scenic natural track.
it was sOo pretty out there!!!
i wish we had more pics...
but here's what we have!
i was going so slow in this video... haha
but hey! i was just learning!
michio and i were riding together and i wanted to go slower but ended up gassing that bad boy up and both of us stopped our bikes and started cracking up cuz we were so surprised i didnt eat it!
i loved it!
we actually got to ride all the way home which was super fun!
and i also got past 2nd gear haha
michio thinks he can do tricks now . .. psshhh
with that being said... i think we should save up to buy our own!!!
