Love that puppy too! It's pretty hard to get a pic of me without a dog somewhere. I have 3 (2 goldens and a black lab). Typically any selfie I take gets photobombed by one of them. LOL

Yeah...there is that. Lots of people don't recognize me anymore. Sometimes it's a bit awkward. My best friend growing up, who I have known since we were babies, didn't recognize me earlier this week. LOL
