evan and i are off to the beach in a few hours for a little end of summer getaway. technically i shouldn't call it little because it consists of about 30 of our friends, coming into town from all over the u.s., to all stay in one house, and live it up for 5 days. though i already feel like summer is over, and am having a hard time wrapping my head around swimwear, i'm super excited to sit on the beach with a glass of wine and a good book.
here's a view of last years crew...
with us being gone for 5 days that means barkley has to get boarded, or as i like to call it, go to summer camp. i always feel so terrible leaving him there, but he absolutely loves it and actually gets a little depressed for a day or two after coming home. i usually like to get him a little something special to come home to and seeing as he destroyed his last bed, i think a new one might be in order.
i'm currently hunting for the perfect one...
i LOVE these ones from canvas, but at this price point, barkley can not be trusted with these just yet!
there are some really fantastic beds on etsy made from recycled materials. i love the rusticness (let's go ahead and make that a word) of this one from lovenostolgicwhimsy...
and last, but certainly not least, is this canvas bed from bowwowbeds. i actually wanted one of these before we even had a dog. they look so tough and durable. perfect for a pup who is still growing out of his chewing phase!
i hope everyone else has something lovely planned for the weekend. i'll be back tuesday nice and relaxed and ready to get back to work!
