My 2nd Birthday

Yesterday was my birthday and I thought my peeps might have forgotten with all the excitement of pups and visitors but when I got up - this package was on the table.

Is that all for me?

I couldn't believe all the yummy things:

These scrummy chews and..

not just one fun treat puzzle but 2!

This bone shaped one was my favourite.

And there were packets of chewy crocodiles too and a box of little bone biscuits. And that wasn't all. Just as I was settling down for a snooze after a good session of munching, my peeps said I must get ready for going out! We were going out to a historic hotel which welcomes well-behaved dogs. Even though we weren't staying there they were happy for me to go in with Leigh & Judith for coffee and teacakes. Well I said I would pass on the snacks having had plenty before I left :-) Here are some pictures of our visit - the sun even came out to shine for us after all the rain:

This is me and Judith outside the hotel - it is called Monk Fryston Hall Hotel

Another view of the lounge with all the oak panelling. Parts of the hotel are over 800 years old.

Wow - is this the coffee and teacakes coming - all very smart with jam and little butter pats.

After the food (and I maybe did force myself to accept a morsel of teacake - just to be sociable of course) we all went for a stroll in the grounds. The cherry tree was huge - much bigger than the one in our garden:

and I had a chance to get a bit of furtling in too:

and then we were spotted by the ducks who thought my peeps had saved some teacake for them:

No chance guys. They were not happy and went off complaining :-)

Well - that was a day to remember - and I needed a good rest after all that excitement.

More puppy pictures later in the week!
