First before I begin my Day I wanna Thank everyone for all the Birthday Wishes. It means SO much..
And.............
I just wanna say that I have the Best Parents in the WHOLE WIDE WORLD...
They gave me a super special week , starting July 10th and made each day nice for me with the HUGE Climax today for my Birthday. They drove 152 Miles today just for ME! I am the luckiest girl in the world.. and if today is my last Birthday I will always remember what a Fantastic Week I had an what a Great day it was!! Please be advised that this is probably the Longest Blog I've EVER written... (boy are my paws tired) ... so you may wanna have Mom grab a cup of coffee.. (or a class of wine) cuddle up beside her with a big milk bone and relax...
And now Onward..................................
The day began a tad "dicey" it was storming and raining pretty hard when we got up. Luckily God was good and moved away the clouds and made it a very pretty partly cloudy hot / humid day.. Last year on this day I was only 1 month past my big knee surgery.. so I couldn't do anything but just walk on a leash.. So Mom & Dad were REALLY wanting to make the day good. PLUS turning 10 and all...
I got a great package from my Sweetie Coach.. xoxo He is so good to me..
Come on Mom.. ENOUGH with the pictures.. LETS GO!!!!
'
Are we there yet? Are we there yet???
Sun was beating the clouds at this point!
Mom had to take a few pictures of me along the way.. :)
Here I am with my Sister Elly..
And here we All are... I am in the White colored Bandana, Elly is in the Pinkish one.. and Molly has the black one..
Arn't we an adorable crew?? Below is Me and Aunt Laureen. (and Elly in one) BOL
After we visited them a while.. Me, Mom, Dad and the Gruesome Twosome Left to grab lunch.. To My SHOCK and Dismay White Castle (that we always stopped at in this area) had CLOSED... I have to remember to write a nasty letter to the Corporate Office scolding them for NOT being open for my Birthday. Grrr Luckily the Golden Arches never let us down... A burger for the bday girl. :)
Next... SWIMMING at a great Dog Park in Libertyville IL.. We had a total blast.. Such a nice place..
See why I love this place????
After that we headed to a HUGE 60 acre park in Wauconda IL.. Started out sunny.. but we could see some storm clouds trying to move in
Mom got some birthday pictures with Me , Delores & Crystal.
Such fun we had!! I didn't wanna leave....
On the way home I reminded Mom & Dad that today was National Ice Cream Day and it was our Civic duty to celebrate it! So we got to share a Strawberry Sundae!!! (( On Sunday)) BOL!!!!
SOOO cool and SOOO Strawberry ~e
My Sisters liked it too..
Then the LONG ride home.... I Watched out the window, thought about how much FUN I had and listened to Mom & Dad sing along with the tapes Mom made (yes.. I said TAPES) Mom still lives in the 80's!!! BOL
Never saw a drop of rain or storms the entire day.. (thank you God!!!)
Molly and Elly gave me a treat bag.. YUM YUM!!!
Here are a few more of Me and CJ & DJ...
And FINALLY... My Birthday cake... Mom & Dad sang to me. It was VERY good!! (( the Cake NOT their singing) ROTFBOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
DARN.... I was hoping this was one of those magical plates that "refilled" itself... Bummer..
So That my friends was my 10th Birthday!! I hope you enjoyed all the pictures and the stories from this past week... I know I get a tad "long winded" some times...
Hope the week ahead is a great one for EVERYBODY!!!
Hugs & Kisses ~~~ Lolita xxx
