Power Outage Cripples Lenox Road

I was aghast that I didn’t see anything on the news about this, so I’m going to play news reporter… 🙂

Around 7:15PM Saturday evening, September 26th, 2009, a falling tree took out power lines along Lenox Road, near the prestigious Buckhead condominium neighborhood, Lenox Heights. One resident reported hearing a loud crash and witnessing sparks flying as the tree crashed, bringing down at least one power pole and turning Lenox Road into a dark, one mile stretch of road, reaching from the condo community towards Lenox Mall, reaching as far as the Metropolitan.

Happy Hour, Birthday Parties, and Fund Raisers!

Need another fix of doggie pix? I’ve got em! Hotel Indigo’s Canine Happy Hours (look for one of our bar tenders, Earl), a fundraiser for the Susan G. Komen race for the cure which doubled as Prada’s birthday party, and Lexie’s first year birthday party.

Over the past weeks, we’ve gone to Hotel Indigo for their Canine Happy Hour! This is a great event to help socialize both dogs and peeps. 🙂 Here’s a collection of pix from the latest happy hours we’ve been to.

For the Susan G. Komen race for the cure, the Babes for Boobies team held a fundraiser at The Grove. This was also a doggie meet-up/birthday party for Truffles’ bff, Prada. Happy Birthday, Prada!

Babes For Boobies

And finally, a relative of Truffles, Lexie, celebrated her first year birthday. The birthday party was a blast!

What happened to the home page?

You may have noticed…that our blog has moved to blog.davidandkevin.com. Since we’ve officially launched a small business of website hosting, design, and domain name registration, it was time to make it the “first” site for visitors. There are some small disruptions to the move that I still have to work on, but they are minor glitches…some links not working, images not showing up. I can fix it, I just need to dedicate some time to it.

The Puppy Prom

What do you get, when you mix doggies, dresses, and tuxedos? A puppy prom, of course!

June’s meeting of the Smyrna-Atlanta Toy Dog Meetup Group included the awesome 2009 Puppy Prom! Kevin and I struggled for weeks trying to decide what Truffles would wear. Kevin searched on-line for a suitable dress but we couldn’t decide on one. The solution: we made the dress ourselves.

Using one of her cocktail dresses (yes, she has a cocktail dress) as a template, we came up with this fabulous design.Version 1 didn’t turn out all that good, but version 2 did much better. It wasn’t perfect, but held up very well. I figure that we’ll try to make her a few more clothes to learn how to sew and finally put that sewing machine to some good use.

Check out the 2009 puppy prom photo album to check out Truffles and all her doggie meetup group friends!
