I think the answer was BOTH!

We’re back!!
Our feet (and paws) have hit Pacific Northwest soil. We are back on the west coast!
After a long cross country move and a crazy family vacation, we are finally getting back to the swing of things. I’ll be back to posting about our adventures and just the the silly things that happen in the life of Basil, Willow, and Sebastian on a daily basis.
Our first official post back will be a Make it Monday. I have a few ideas in the works but if you have something you really want me to try let me know in the comments.
Until then make sure your following us on Instagram (http://www.instagram.com/basilstravels) for even more Boston terrier fun!
Thanks everyone for sticking around through this little hiatus. We all really appreciate you!!
Now on to seeing what kind of trouble we can get into in the land of fish, trees, rain, and the 12th man! Xoxo
Travel well, nap well, live well!

“What do you call a blind dinosaur’s dog?”
“A Do-you-think-he-saurus Rex.” – Jurassic Park (1993)
Today is the day! We are going to see an early showing of Jurassic World.
In this house we are huge dinosaur fans. Nate has collectables from the original movies and we have seen the 3 previous movies more times than I would like to say.
I had Nate create me a little preview of what it would look like if Basil had his own Dinosaur movie. I think this is so cute I may have him make an animated short of this!
So excited about tonight! I’ll let you know what we think!
Travel well, nap well, live well!

Parting is such sweet sorrow!
Hello friends! In a couple short weeks we are off back to the West Coast so today we spent visiting with friends and hitting up some of our favorite spots!
First stop, Sycamore Brewing Company. We hung out with friends, fellow pups, and some good beer. Today was the day Basil had his first taste of beer! (Dogs should not have alcohol. It can cause liver damage or death! Please do not give you dog alcohol. It was only a taste and it was given to him by a friendly stranger who only had good intentions in mind.) It was a great time!
Next we hit up Vin Master Wine Shop. For good wine, more friends, and air conditioning! Basil got to weigh himself on a vintage scale, he weighs 24 lbs, and got a ton of treats!
We are currently enjoying some wine and relaxing. Basil, Nate, the cats, and myself will cherish the remainder of our time here in Charlotte, North Carolina.
C’est la vie!
Travel well, nap well, live well!

Winner Winner Chicken Dinner!
Waking up this morning we still can’t believe it! Saturday night, at the Nose to Nose awards for the BlogPaws conference 2015, we won the best pet photo award for the picture below.
We were up against some hard competition but Basil’s cuteness prevail! Although we were unable to attend the conference this year we were able to watch it streaming live on YouTube.
I want to thank BlogPaws for this award and everyone that reads this blog and loves my dog, we are truly thankful!
Now to start planning for the 2016 BlogPaws conference being held in Phoenix, AZ. Xoxo

Throwback Thursday – BlogPaws Conference 2014
Today all of our fellow pet blogger friends are gathered in Nashville, TN for the 2015 BlogPaws conference. We really wish we could have been there this year but the cross country move just didn’t make it possible.
For throwback Thursday I thought I would post a few of our favorite photos from last years conference in Las Vegas, NV. 
Although we are missing the conference this year we will still be able to watch the Nose-to-Nose award show online, which we are nominated for an award in the Best Photo category. If you want to watch the award show along with us you can find the live stream here, https://www.youtube.com/user/BlogPaws starting at 7pm CST on Saturday May 30th.
Hopefully we will be able to attend the conference next year to learn a lot and see all our friends!
Now back to packing up our entire life! Washington State, we’ll see you soon! Xoxo

Life is crazy!
Our life as of late is boxes, bubble wrap, and tape. In a few short weeks we are moving back out west and man it’s a ton of work! I’ve done this move now going on 4 times so you would think I’d have it down, but no! I don’t know if the pets know for sure what’s happen yet but they will know very soon.
Because of this craziness the blog may be a little slow in the next coming weeks. I’ll be working hard to keep posts coming but it probably won’t be everyday. To keep up with us make sure to follow us on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook at @basilstravels
Also, to get email updates on every Basil’s Travels post head over to Bloglovin’ and follow us there!
Hope everyone is having a great week. What are your plans for Memorial Day weekend? I’d love to know! Until next time! Xoxo
