Life has been so great, but so busy! This pup has barely had time to think let alone blog with all that's been happening. I really wanted to stop in and update you on this week's events.
Last weekend sure was fun. Wasn't sure what all the hub bub was about until much later... more on that in a bit.
First, the g-parents came to visit! We all had a wild time pouncing around the park.
 |
| I sure do love them and miss them when they're away. |
 |
| Mommy and Me. |
 |
| Taking my leash off!!? |
 |
| I love playing with Mom... |
 |
| and sticks!! |
 |
| I was "caught" up in all the excitement in more ways than one. |
Here's when things got REALLY fun!
 |
| FREEDOM! |
 |
| Trottin' |
 |
| I love you and all, but seriously give me my stick. |
 |
| Happy in the cool soil. |
 |
| All that play can wear a pup flat out! |
That evening, the Humans all sat around and watched the sweetest smelling concoction catch fire until Mom decided to blow it out...so confused by that- but everyone seemed happy, so I just went with it.
 |
| Umm camera man-you guys know that's on fire, right? |
 |
| ?? |
 |
| Oh we're blowing it out? I can help!! |
I also got to meet my Auntie Lauren!! I was so excited, I couldn't help but stay by her side the whole night.
Later, Mom dressed me in some embarrassing green garb. She's kind of a nut, but I still love her.
 |
| What's this green business about? |
 |
| Geeks in green |
Come to find out- it was not only St. Patrick's Day, it was Mom's Birthday!! I felt awfully ashamed that I wasn't aware, so decided to give her a belated token of my love.
The morning after her Birthday- I worked hard in the backyard searching for what to give her. It was then that I came upon the most exciting experience thus far in my short life.
All I saw at first was a long, skinny tail...upon closer inspection I identified what could only be the redolence of a rat!! As soon as I pounced on my prospect, I trotted proudly: back arched, head and tail up- with prey dangling most delightfully in my mouth. All the while, my heart pulsating at the thought of Mom's anticipated pleasure soon to come.
Oddly enough...as soon as I came to the back door the anticipated pleasure I was expecting from her turned to panic as I noticed Mom's eyes get the biggest I've ever seen! Her mouth dropped.
She then began to nervously wave a sweet smelling treat in front of me. As soon as I dropped the prized present to take a closer look, she whisked me into the house so fast I didn't get to appropriately part with my prey.
As I looked on through the screen door- I heard the most curious sounds coming from her as she scooped her present into a bucket. I don't know if they were squeals of delight or horror, but she sure was jumping around a lot and seemed hesitant to reciprocate the rapturous feelings that her belated bounty had given me.
I never did see where she put that bucket though...so I can only assume she placed my perfect prey on the shelf in our garage for safe keeping. HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY, MOM!!
