My 8th Barkday and "Pupcake Eating Contest"

Edited: Uh oh. My mom is not too smart. She told me tomorrow is my barkday... But, I just checked the calendar. TODAY IS MY BARKDAY!!! Not tomorrow! Some Mom I've got. She doesn't even know what day of the week today is!

-------------------------------------

I am turning a big 8 years old tomorrow today. We celebrated my barkday with my niece Happy, on Superbowl Sunday and had a Pupcake eating contest. I had a fun day with Happy, even though we didn't interact that much together, but Mom says it is good to have dog-company.

Here my Mom was gathering all the ingredients for my special Pupcake. It included Gerber's beef baby food!


And here they are after baking and being frosted with my favorite, cottage cheese! And, the doggie bone sprinkles are pretty darn cute!


(by the way, she made 5 Pupcakes. We ate 2 already and still have 3 left!! Yay! More for me!)

Here we are on my carride to visit Happy so we can celebrate my barkday:

Happy, what are you doing down there? Come up here to celebrate with me!


It's my barkday celebration. Does that mean I can have some pizza, please? You're on a low carb diet, so I could eat the crust for you.


This is Happy's favorite spot where she gets lots of pets from her dad.


I thought I should try out that spot, afterall, it IS my Barkday, isn't it?:


Superbowl Halftime! This is when we get to have the Pupcakes!



Yum! Don't they look good?!


The frenzy begins!


My Mom says that you all know what would happen if the Pupcakes were left intact in whole pieces, so she cut them up....


(There is a video of us woofing down the pupcakes at the end of this post.)

Happy wants MORE:


For some reason my Uncle thought I should get a Barkday brushing:


We went to my Grandma's house after the celebration. I was dog-tired by the end of the day, but I had a good time on my special day.


Here are the videos.

This is where the Pupcake frenzy continues and we scarf down the pupcakes during our Pupcake Eating Contest! They were yummy! We actually split one pupcake during Superbowl halftime. But later, Mom gave us the other pupcake to share, so by the end of the day, we each got a whole pupcake to ourselves!

This is when Happy and I played chase. I am the chaser and Happy is the chasee. This is always the case. My mom says this is a cute video because Happy takes off down the hall, and I follow suit (even though I pretended to be interested in the basket of toys):

Well, that was my Barkday. Hope you enjoyed the photos!

Love,
Hana the Dog

p.s. If anyone wants the Word Document for the recipe to the Pupcakes, let my Mom know. She can email it to you. It looks like this:



She modified the recipe when she made the pupcakes and only used half the ingredients to make the 5 pupcakes. The recipe above is unmodified.

HAPPY BARKDAY TO YOU HANA!!!! How could your mom forget? My hoomans forgot about my 1st barkday last time & so, I did not celebrate. I was a very sad pup...But anyway, those pupcakes looks deliciously good! My mommy once made pupcakes for us too & it was yogurt pupcakes. I ate most of them!

Love licks,

Hi Hana,
Mom is looking for an eskie photo for my blog. We are trying, really. Mom went to a dog parade this past weekend, which I will post in the next day or so. Maybe there is an eskie in all the pictures my mom too? I'll post a slide show, so maybe you can pick one out. There were some dogs there wearing ribbon collars like you make! Maybe they got them from you!
See you again soon!

THANK YOU HANA!!!!!!!!! The word one was much easier to read and Mom printed the other one, too. She finally got her Christmas presant yesterday (cool new measuring cups) and said she'd make the pupcakes at least. I think we might try peanut butter as icing. I'm not sure I can waite a week and a half for my birthday!!!! Thank you thank you thank you thank you!!!!!!!

Hi Hana,
Yep, only one dog photo with Fats Domino, but come visit today and see the doggie parade. Mom was not sure if she saw any eskies there though.
Have a great day!

Hey Hana,
I just got your last message about pictures of your animal friends! That sounds pawsome! I can't wait to meet your animal friends. My mom and daddy Len thought there would never be enough animals out there for me to keep posting stories, but there are animals EVERYWHERE! Animals are our friends.
I'll come back to check out what you post. See you again soon!
