The Adventures of my Sock Monkey

Big weekend!!

2007-05-22T17:17:00.000-07:00

It was the sunneshine's anniversary this weekend. So even though they had tons going on, I made sure I was right in the middle of everything!!

Here I am with mr.sunneshine at the Rockies game enjoying a cool beer with him on a warm afternoon. Unfortunately for us, we were right in the middle of a high school class who had driven to Denver for the game from Wyoming - stand up, sit down, got get food, shoot spit balls, stand up, chit chat, get more food, more chit chat...geez! And the Rockies couldn't even pull out a decent game for me - bummer!! At least, I got to go....

Then on Sunday, we had a big open house, here I am guarding the food before the guests arrive! The party was a huge success, all the sushi and cheese was eatten and everyone was happy!!

Now on to the next set of adventures...

Working in Boulder

2007-04-15T13:18:00.000-07:00

I have been very busy lately. There has been a lot of work. I am very good at helping out around the shop!! Here are a bunch of pictures of me working in the Boulder store.

I am re-merching the cute hats with the sparkly skulls and loving that white floral bag. I think it makes my stripes look good!!

I am a great jean folder, too!! Look at how nice and straight my piles are...

Finally, finishing up the orders from our big trip! All that budgeting is kind of a pain, but I really like the shopping part, so I guess it all goes together...

Have a good week...

My first big trip!!

2007-03-26T11:14:00.000-07:00

So I got to go to Los Angeles last week!! I was SOOOO excited!! Here I am at home all packed up next to my suitcase with some snacks for the plane -- pectin jelly beans, my favorite!!

Then I am in my seat on the airplane - I think some people thought I was a little weird....

Then we stayed at the Grafton, and I met a new friend. Froggie was in our room, that was great, I had someone to play with when I couldn't go shopping....

And look at all the goodies that we found!! Great dresses and tops and jackets - all packed up and ready to take back to the store. I love shopping!!

Then we were at the mart, shopping through the shoes and clothes for next fall. It was really fun and I look great in the
shoes!! I especially like the turquoise ones - but I don't think they make my size...

Here I am at dinner with sunneshine. Somehow, Kelly and Jack managed to not be in the photo. I'll have to work on that next time. I got to sit on the table during dinner, since Jack is a beagle and we wanted to make sure that I didn't get mistaken as a toy.... And blue cheese stuffed olive martini was yummy after a really long day of work....

Finally, it was time to go home. I thought that my stripes were a nice compliment to all the polka dots in the room, so here I am posing! It was really fun to go, but great to be home, too!!

More adventures to come!!

weeeee - bike riding

2007-03-19T09:04:00.000-07:00

It was really really nice here on sunday - so, we pulled out the cruiser bike and went for a ride. The first photo here is an action shot. Then we have a photo here of me all strapped into the basket. I was lovin it - warm air on my face - navigating (you can see that I am pointing with my right arm) - all fun all the time! And the best part is that the bike even has a skully monkey on it!! Meant to be!

I am off to relax after a busy weekend with the folks... I am sure that there are more adventures that I can get into while they are at work - hehehe.... Plus, I hear that I am going on a plane later this week, stay tuned....

Mr. Love Monkey's St. Patty's Day

2007-03-18T10:43:00.000-07:00

It was St. Patty's day yesterday and boy did I have an adventure!! We ran into some friends at Keggs and Eggs, hello to Anna and Doug. They had started with beer for breakfast....

Then we listened to the Atari's and Jack's Mannequin - I didn't have such a good view stuck in sunneshine's bag - but the music sounded good!! Later mr.sunneshine gave me my first green beer - yummy!!

Still trying to reconcile how green beer celebrates the running of the snakes out of Ireland.... maybe as I get older I will understand.. or maybe I will drink enough green beer and quit asking....

Hello

2007-03-16T17:00:00.000-07:00

Hello, these are the adventures of my sock monkey. I do not claim to have made him - he was gift. I do find his sense of adventure fun, and therefore am helping him with this site.
(His typing is a little slow and clumsey). Right now he is called Mr. Love Monkey, which could end up being his porn star name -- hence it was not used in the blog name -- as he is a happy g rated sock monkey!

Stay tuned for his adventures!!
