Yup. I sure am. The invitation had been sent out to all my nieces & nephews :), some special toys & treats had been purchased (but are hidden away for now)..

All I need to do now is to go get her the birthday hat, and figure out the way to get in on her :)

I do have one HUGE problem, though.. My card reader is missing, so while I have tonssssss of new pictures on my camera, I cannot download them to my computer :(

You guys may have to wait until I find my card reader, or get the new one, for the birthday pictures. I do promise to take lots & lots of them.

:o

Muffin will be ONE in 4 days!!! :D

Yippeeee!! All the preparation is ready. I'll be throwing Muffin a Birthday party this weekend!! I can'tttt wait :)

How can I not love THIS face :)

I've learned so much from my little Muffin since the day she came to be with us... She's taught me all these, and more:

Never pass up the opportunity to go for a joy ride!!

Allow the experience of fresh air and wind in your face to be pure ecstasy!

When loved ones come home, always run to meet them.

When it's in your best interest, practice obedience.

Let others know when they've invaded your territory.

Takes naps and stretch before rising.

Run, romp and play daily.

Eat with gusto and enthusiasm.

Be loyal.

Never pretend to be something you're not.

If what you want lies buried, dig until you find it.

When someone is having a bad day, be silent, sit close by and nuzzle them gently.

Thrive on attention and let people touch you.

Avoid biting when a simple growl will do.

On hot days, drink lots of water and lay under a shady tree.

When you're happy, dance around and wag your entire body.

No matter how often you're scolded, don't buy into the guilt thing and pout...run right back and make friends.

Bond with your pack.

Delight in the simple joy of a long walk.
