Ella is five!

Today Ella turned five years old! To celebrate her marking another year we, of course, ate lots of tasty treats!

My Mom bought the dogs some yummy (and cute!) cookies from Urban Dawgz. These cookies are always a huge hit with the dogs.

And I baked some mini cupcakes, topped with peanut butter, honey and walnuts! The dogs really loved these, too.

This would be Ella looking all annoyed with me. She wants one of those tasty cupcakes, not a photo shoot!

Nummyyy cupcake!

And some tasty cookies too!

Of course Lassie & Petal got to enjoy some cookies and cupcakes, too.

And as a birthday present (no birthday is complete without presents), Ella is getting a pink & brown collar from Dublin Dog. :]

Happy birthday Miss Ella Grace! ♥

Petal’s Birthday

Yesterday (Monday, December 6th) was Petal’s first birthday! This year has gone by incredibly fast, but it’s been a really fun year. Petal has grown so much and so fast, it’s hard to believe she was just a tiny little puppy in February. It’s also hard to believe it’s already December!
We had some fun with Petal’s birthday though and baked mini vanilla cupcakes and frosted them with purple buttercream frosting. They turned out really good and were a big hit with everyone, including the dogs. ;] We also bought them some cookies from a local dog store (Urban Dawgz) and those were devoured in seconds.

Yummy cupcake! Spoiled, spoiled dog. 😛

My sister Melanie had fun feeding a second cupcake to Petal. She even smeared the frosting over her nose.

Petal was not very happy about getting frosting smeared across her nose. Hahaha.
Would you believe that she actually looks at people from the corner of her eye like that all the time?
And, of course, what’s a birthday party without presents? And what’s a dog birthday party without new Kong toys?

Petal got a brand new Kong and a Kong Braidz Giraffe, which she is in love with. In fact, she’s currently curled up with it on the floor and fast asleep by my feet.

Happy Holidays!
