Happy Birthday to Me - 11th October 2011

Its my birthday and I'm on holidays at the beach.

Can life get ANY better than this?

Every morning, Mum and Misty go walking to cousin Sienna's (the doberman) house while Dad and I do a quick walk to be beach, then we hop in the car and go and pick Mum and Misty up. Then in the afternoon we go down to the beach again and Mum takes me for a walk while Misty tows Dad all over the beach. I really love the beach. It makes me smile

And for my birthday I had a party and invited Sienna and her family over. We had party bags with toys and treats, plenty of food and cupcakes. It was great. Except for that thunderstorm that had me hiding under the picnic table (where its safe). I wouldn't even come out for cake. But I got lots of extra treats under the table, so it wasn't all bad.

We had a great night. I'm still recovering....

Happy Birthday to Me - 10 Years Young

Happy Birthday to Me....

Its my birthday, and I'm ten (in dog years), about seventy in human years. No wonder I sometimes feel a bit old.

Even though I'm stuck in the garage I'm still having a great day. I went to physio this morning, then dropped in at the local vet and saw Jacque and Jacqui who gave me lots of pats and little bits of lamb puff. Unfortunately we were too early to see Trish, but later in the day she sent me a lovely email, which made my tail wag. Everyone says I am walking fabulously, and they can't believe I'm only three and a half weeks post-op.

Its been raining today - torrential at times - a good day for a cuddle up in the crate. For dinner tonight Mum made bacon and egg burgers (Grandma and Grandpa McDonald had a snack bar when Mum was little, and Mum makes a pretty good burger), and then we had cake. Rich gooey chocolate cake. Yum. Mum did try for a photo, but really, can't I eat my cake in peace. (Yes I can because I kept running away from the camera)

Of course, now my belly's full and I'm feeling a bit sleepy. Might just go and have a nap.
