Celebrate!

Today's festivities.

I know I have been missing in action. But I had to post today, because it's Bunny's birthday. That's right. Today Bunny turned 9. Where has the time gone?

She woke up this morning not feeling well. She actually threw up. She is blind in one eye and losing her hearing. There's a little boy (sources say, Emmett) who likes to sneak up behind her and hit her on the hiney and laugh. You'd probably feel sick, too. Anyway, her big day did get better. I gave her a medicated bath. Then, after looking thru a few shirts and dresses, I decided that Bunny could just put her jammies on. After all, it is her day.

Ellie Kate got all dressed up (and asked me if the bug man spraying our house would want to join us. I spared him the invite.), while Emmett cruised around on his fire engine. Then on a plate from EK's tea set, we gave Bunny a little cheese danish with a lit candle. We reused her birthday crown from last year and all sang 'Happy Birthday' as Ross accompanied us on the guitar. It is of note that Emmett didn't grab the candle and EK, after making a wish, blew out Bunny's candle for her. I took care of the videoing and then we recreated the festivities for the still camera.

Bunny devoured her treat and spent the rest of the day in her jammies probably avoiding both children.

I decided to post some pictures of Bunny through the years. (They are in no particular order.)

I cannot believe that she is 9 (or 63). She is a well traveled chihuahua both on the road as well as in the air. She's just a wee little girl who has been a staple around here. Ross would confirm (while gagging) that Bunny 'loves her mommy'.
Happy Birthday, Bunny!
