Crayon Day

Today is National Crayon Day. So I thought it was a perfect day for Annie to attend Princess School Art Class. I told her to draw whatever she sees. When I looked over and asked what she was drawing she barked that she drew the backyard - pool, grass, tree, flowers. Hmmm.. so Annie is an abstract artist!  I was so proud of her! 

That is until she started eating my crayon!

Blooming

 I just love this time of year. All the flowers are blooming! The bushes in front of the house turn this fabulous shade of pink!

And my fave red roses in the frontyard  are already giant !

And all the white roses in the backyard are blooming perfectly - Annie insists it is because of her bones buried underneath them. Speaking of Annie, she also is aware of our beautiful flowers.

She loves the way the Marigolds look and the fragrance of the Alyssum in her 'bathroom' !

Memories of Sugar

Annie and I were so sad when Mommy told us that our fab friend Sugar the Golden Retriever went over the Rainbow Bridge on Thursday. We loved sweet Sugar. Annie and I kept barking about the great times we had with Sugar. So we thought we would put together a photo show of our memories.  We miss you Sugar.

Lucky Glasses

Annie got St Patrick's glasses and she couldn't wait to wear them.  She thinks they are lucky glasses that will help her find and catch a Leprechaun. Since I wouldn't partake, Annie asked Bunnybell to join her and she obliged. Annie is still searching, so she barked that she will continue wearing the glasses through St. Patricks Day! Good luck Annie!

Purim with Family

Today we got to celebrate Purim with my fab cousin Stephen and his beautiful girlfriend Megan. Purim honors the day the Queen of Persia, Esther, saved the Jewish people from execution by the mean man Haman, the advisor to the Persian king. A traditional food of Purim is Hamantaschen, said to look like Haman's tri-cornered hat or ears. So I prepared a plate of these delish triangle treats. 

We were all going to sit and eat together, but Annie as usual just couldn't wait!

Cheese Doodle Day !

 It's National Cheese Doodle Day! I just adore these crunchy puffs! So I prepared bowls for Annie and me. Annie was not happy about the difference in serving size. I explained to her that I do not plan on eating mine all at once, but savor them throughout the day. She, on the other paw, has no self control, so has a portion which is ok to gobble it up. She then proceeded to celebrate ...

 And there went her bowl of Cheese Doodles, in her mouth, in her tummy and all over her face!

Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss !
