Foo Fighters Concert

Took Rod to a concert last night for his birthday present. Actually I wanted to see the band but didn't have anyone to go with so asked he if wanted to go. Yay me as he agreed.

This was the best concert I've been to I think ever. It lasted a good 3 hours and was fully of music with not very many interruptions.

Took a few pictures with my crappy camera but am amazed that they turned out ok.

Good times held by all.

Fido Casting Call

So I read in a small newspaper article while reading through the flyers about a casting call for dogs. Fido, a cellphone company, uses dogs in all their commercials. So chances of getting picked are slim but you do get a free professional photo of your pet. I thought what the heck and would get up early on Saturday to take Lucy down for her big shot.

I bathed her the night before so she'd be shiny and clean. We woke up on Saturday morning to be down at Eau Claire Market for 8am as that is when the casting call began. I thought rather be early then have to wait in line all day. Knowing Lucy doesn't have the patience, good thing we did.

We got there at 8am and there were only about 10 people in line which wasn't too bad. Signed a waiver and got her pictures taken. The photographer wasn't the greatest as she missed some really good shots of Lucy.

Then waited in line again to review the shots before posting it on Facebook. Along with the casting call, each LIKE on Facebook gets $1 donated by Fido to the Canada Dog Guide association. Not a bad deal.

Isn't she a STAR!

After making Lucy wait in two lines I then took her for a nice walk on Prince's Island. Got a few nice pictures and she had a good time smelling Canadian Goose poo and other unknown items.

Here are our pictures from the day. All-in-all it was a fun little adventure for a couple of hours.

One final shot for her "portfolio"!
