Ducky came to Ty & I via Janelle (Kirk's girlfriend). Her niece, who is in 2nd grade in Riceville, IA, has a classroom project to send Ducky to as many friends & family as possible in order to see how far & where Ducky can go. It is based on a true story where a crate of rubber duckys was washed overboard off the coast of Alaska & all the ducks ended up all over the world. So, Ducky hung out with us for the weekend. We were going to take him candlepin bowling on Friday night, but things got a little out of control. It was a ton of fun, though to hang out with Jake & Anna, our MN friends; Chris & Kelly, our dogpark friends; and of course, Sasha & Brooke. On Saturday, we didnt do much...just hung out around the house & Ty watched his UFC fight, in which Brock Lesnar, former Gopher national wrestling champion, defeated the current world champion for the title. It isnt my type of sport, but I had to be supportive of Ty. On Sunday, we slept in, got up, had lunch, went shopping, & took Ducky to the sights of Boston. Our last stop was the ocean, so we stopped and picked up Mac for that leg. Mac had a BLAST, even though the water was FREEZING and it was the windiest day I have seen in a long time (maybe ever). By now, it was almost dark, the sun had set, so we figured it was time to go home. We walked to the car, and oh shit...NO KEYS! So, we looked around for about 20 minutes, and I finally found them laying on the sand. We were lucky to find them. Ty is no longer in charge of the keys... ha ha! Today, Ty is back to work, and I have an exciting day of cleaning on the agenda. Did I mention last week that I have 100% decided to get a cleaning lady?!? YEP! I have the name & #, I just have to call...
