Halloween
Just an average Wednesday!
Happy wordless Wednesday internet friends. Here we see just an average Wednesday where Darth Vader, Princess Leia, and Master Yoda hang out, probably for afternoon tea and to talk about book club. Obviously.
This is just 1 of Basil’s Halloween costumes. Check our Instagram for even more coming up everyday until Halloween where Basil will wear the costume, voted by you, the piñata! It’s pretty adorable!
What is your dog or cat going to be for Halloween? Do they like to get dressed up? Let us know! I would love to see your pictures.

Right off the vine! Pumpkin Picking!
Yesterday we put on our boots and headed to our favorite pumpkin patch, The Nursery at Mount Si. With the clouds looming and the smell of rain in the air, we were pretty much playing with fire.
The rain managed to hold off (Seriously, we missed it by moments!) and we were able to pick out some great pumpkins. Check out our photos and if you are in or around the Seattle area check out The Nursery at Mount Si, worth the trip!

The time has come… A vote you can feel good about!
The last couple of years you have chosen Basil’s Halloween costume and it has been adorable. Last year he was Spock from Star Trek and in 2013 he was seriously cutest turtle I’ve ever seen! All thanks to you! 
Well, it is that time of year again. Check out the choices below and make your vote! Also, if you think of something that is not on this list, make sure to vote for other and let me know.
Voting will run until October 15th, so that I can make sure his costume arrives by Halloween.
Vote as much as you want. Remember voting closes October 15th. Make sure Basil wears what you want this Halloween!

B is for Barktoberfest!
October means fall. The changing of the colors, the wearing of boots, scarfs, and hats, and Oktoberfest! In every city across the US this month there is a event celebrating our love if beer! Lucky for us Charlotte, NC has just one of those events but better!
Barktoberfest was this last Saturday October 18th at the fabulous Triple C Brewing Company in the Southend neighborhood of Charlotte.
It had copious amounts of beer, dogs in silly adorable Halloween costumes and great friends. This event hosted by Triple C Brewing Company, and Canine Cafe featured a mile walk to support cancer in humans and dogs as well as a silent auction, and doggie costume contest.
We had an amazing time. Basil made a lot if new friends and ran into some old ones. Enjoy some photos below, even though a few are a bit blurry. It just shows how much fun was had by all!
Hope everyone is having a great week and getting ready for Halloween. Do you know what your fur babies are going to be yet? Tomorrow I’ll post some last minute ideas for costumes that are super cute and super easy!

31 Days of Hipster Halloween!
If you have been to this blog before you have heard me say that every hipster worth their salt has a least on bow tie. Well, that also goes for scarfs!
