My Birthday

I like to start off my birthdays (and in fact any other day) by going silly.
So when the place mat for the holy birthday cake went down, I went down too...

 

 

Now I got that out of the system, I AM READY!!!

And there she is....

 

Thanks, Mum!

My favourite, Toast Cake!!!

Ok, so the first piece is for me of course...

Say what?

Oh, we can go...THANKS!!! Sheeesh....

So down I stuff it, as quickly as I can

making sure that little Inky Pups is getting none of my share...

Then, onto the presents...

And lookie lookie...

I got a cat!!!

So Inky wouldn't annoy me I let her open a present for me...

But once it hatched, it was over to me pronto...

I also got this squeeky person on a rope and Pinkie reckons it looks like me.
Ha ha, very funny.... not!

Then we had bubbles...

but I wasn't sure about those...

 Can I eat them? I'll give them the lick-test (biggify to see my testing instrument properly)...

Then we were off for an outing down to the beach. It was blowing a gale and so there are no photos as Pinks had to use her hands to keep the skirt down :)

We went out for lunch in Torquay and I got loads of under-the-table treats, yeah!

On the way home we called in at the pet store to see my friends...

We also picked up some treats so we went back home to have a traditional birthday mongreling-around session

and then some veggie pigs ears to finish off...

I just love those...

and I fell asleep a happy girl...

MOLLY

It's my birthday!

 

Hi all! It's Molly here. I turned 5 today! I had a beautiful day with my family.

I even called in at the pet store to see my friends (above). 

They were happy to see me.

I wish they could come home with me so I can take them on all my adventures...

Anyway, I am stonkered now so must go nigh' nigh's.

Will post all birthday pics during the week.

Love,

MOLLY

Dale-Togethers etc

Hi all

Gosh, it's been donkey's again... Where were we?? Ah yes, that's right. The xmas in July do...

We didn't have any images to post for a long time. It appears our pink person was too busy on the day making mulled wine and raising funds for AireNet Airedale Rescue so she didn't take any photos. We had our paws full running after the other 30-odd Dales that attended of course.

Sue F of AireNet Airedale Rescue has now kindly supplied us with some shots so here we all are!

Our friends Jane & Fee together with their human pups had kindly opened their doors again to provide for a fun-filled day of butt sniffing, stealing treats and mongreling-around. Boy, did we have a ball....

And it appears the pink people had a jolly good time, too.

Here are Uncle Eric (right) and Auntie Helen. Helen made a fabbers cake with Airedales on it and it was one of the prizes for the raffle.

Here is our pink person announcing the lucky winners. Five lucky bastards walked away with our signed Todd Young prints depicting our beautiful race.

Auntie Jen had made loads of goodies again and there was a table full of stuffs including the coveted AireNet wine (click to purchase)...

 

So there MAY have been a tipsy pinkie or two... 

What a day!


Anyway, next on the agenda of dale-togethers was a holiday up in Beechworth together with the Leuradales (photos stolen from Denise's Facebook page).

That day we had Duke and Zena come up with Auntie Jen, Gary & Lorna. We had a ball!

And a couple of days later, Auntie Helen together with Uncle Eric and Emma & Mink came to join us for an afternoon of funsies.

Willow and Mink are litter mates and it was their first reunion since puppyhood. What a pair!

We would like to thank the Leuradales and their pinkies for an awesome time. They were the perfect hosts and we loved their cottage and backyard!! (more photo's on Elfi and Denise's blog if you're keen).


We ourselves stayed in Yackandandah at "Time after Time" and we can highly recommend it to fellow travellers (they are pinkie friendly!).

The hosts looked after us really well and made us feel very welcome (despit Molly barking her head off at them). We'll be back! (if we're allowed..)


One last sunrise at the cottage (Molly)

And some well deserved rest (Molly and Angus, Inky's rear)

before it was time to go home. Ahhhh.....

INKY and MOLLY
