Trip to Fallingwater

Well I figure it's about time I post the pictures from our trip to Frank Lloyd Wright's famous Fallingwater house. We weren't allowed to take pictures of the inside so you'll only get to see a few of the outside. The company I work for celebrated it's 30 year anniversary by flying the entire company and spouses to Pittsburgh to see the house. Of course I was excited because I remember when Angelina Jolie took Brad Pitt there last year for his birthday because apparently he's a big architecture buff. Anyway Steve and I thought it was a lot of fun and really enjoyed the tour. We also got to see the other house about 15 minutes away that he designed for another family called Kentuck Knob. We were both in love with Kentuck Knob. It's not as famous but it made more sense to us for a family home, but then again we aren't Architects so...

We were really impressed with the City of Pittsburgh. It blew Houston out of the water and we weren't expecting that. Before we left we had to find something to do with our babies and everyone knows how we are about our dogs. We found a cute little place called Bed and Biscuits (tee hee isn't that a funny name) to take them. They got their own "suite" and got to go to Doggie Day Care during the day.

The lady said that Magnum immediately made friends with another Jack Russell and ignored Biscuit completely. Apparently this upset Biscuit and she got really sad. She would run up to Magnum and he would blow her off, so she would run back and sit in the ladies lap. The lady said Magnum would run by lick Biscuit on the face real quick and then run back out to play. Biscuit had a little bit of a tempermant problem and would bite the other dogs and handlers that went up to her too fast. She wasn't a big fan of doggie daycare. Magnum thought it was awesome.
