Weekend Doin's

The Cousins

Ah they grow so fast. One minute they're falling asleep in your lap, the next they're laying quietly in the corner, chewing on a dirty sock. No not Sabrina! I'm talking about Ripley of course. Saturday was his 3rd birthday. We made a day of it and I took him and Chase to the park for a morning of swimming, dock diving, and chasing tail and tennis balls. We wanted to do something special for him, so that night we took a ride to Chandler Fashion Square to look for a dog birthday cake. We thought there was a Three Dog Bakery down there, but it must have closed. I knew I should have gotten one at the Doggie Cafe down by the park! (No they're not spoiled at all, are they?) So he kinda got skunked; but we got Dairy Queen, so it kind of worked out. Sabrina drooled a lot, but we stayed strong and kept her away from the Oreo Blizzards. Sorry girl, they don't have Similac Cones.

Sunday we had a surprise party for my mother, who retired from work. Check out the picture above of all the cousins together. They love the new addition.
