Happy Birthday to Belle!!

Here I am when I first arrived at my new home. What a cute little girl I am.

Of course I got cake for my first birthday!

We've met! He hasn't worn any dresses or bows for me yet. What's up with that??

Fresh from the spa/groomers. Notice my pink bows too!

At 4 years old I'm still cute!!

Another June Birthday!!

I was all smiles for my b-day. Only one more year until the BIG 5-0! I know, I know I look somewhere between 15 and 100. At least that's what the kids in my class said. haha

Patrice and Al gave me balloons for my birthday. I haven't had balloons in a long time.

I couldn't have opened all my presents without Belle and Dave's help. What sweet dogs they are.

Pat loved my spice cake (thanks Wendy!). Doesn't he look happy??

I knew he would want a strawberry to go with the cake. Does he remind you of someone else in the family? Thanks to my whole family for making the day very special. I love you all very much.

Man In Heaven

Pat got the night started with a cool one or two (or three)!

Then it was time for presents. Could this be FOOD!!! Dave seems to think so. I think even he notices a pattern of cookies and candy for daddy on special occasions.

He got a new game for his Wii. Call of Duty. And the best part was...

He got a new gun to go with it. I think I've created a monster!!!! But we all love you anyway.

24 ALREADY???

Patrice had a great b-day.

Al took her out to dinner and then I took her out so he could come over and decorate the house. He did everything in her favorite color. PURPLE!
He even made the cake purple. Yes you read right HE made the cake. All by himself. He really is special!

Here's we are right before we dug in. The cake was really great.

Even at 24 they still like to blow out candles.
