Pierre:
“Is it Thanksgiving Day again?
I could use some more good food.
Is it Christmas? Will there be
presents? How about cake? Will there be cake? Do I need to go take a bath? Tell me!
The anticipation is making me crazy!”
Bentley: “You are kinda sorta
right. There will be cake and presents,
but they will all be for ME! It is my 7th
happy birthday! This is my party and it
is so big that we are spreading it out over two days! Uh-oh…here comes Mama. I’m fixing to be smothered with kisses.” *rolls eyes to look macho
but wags tail because he is a big mama’s boy
Me: “Happy
birthday my sweet baby boy! *major kisses, hugs, and belly rubs I cannot believe it has been
seven years since you were born. I love
you.”
Pierre:
“Where is the cake and presents?
Are our friends coming by to celebrate?
Let me go style my hair. Gramma,
you go ahead and gush over Bentley. I
know that you want to tell the story of how he came to live with you.”
Bentley: “Yeah, tell me that story
again. It’s one of my favorites.”
Me: “Well,
I’ve told the story lots of times, so why don’t we just let our guests click here if they want to read how you became my soul dog. I do have some of my favorite photos to share
with everyone.”
Bentley: “I’m sure glad that you
didn’t have any of me in my undies. As
y’all can tell, my mom and dad take a gazillion pictures of me. This is a special birthday for me. You see, I have a 7 on my side, I’m my
family’s 7th dog, and it is my 7th birthday. Mom, I’ve been thinking about doing something
special for our friends to celebrate.”
Me: “It’s
your special day. We can do whatever
your little heart desires. Except don’t
say fly to Mars or anything like that.
What do you have in mind?”
Bentley: “Well, I was thinking about
channeling my Inner-Oprah. I want to have a giveaway of a few of my
favorite things!”
Me: “What
a great idea! Let me go make a
Rafflecopter entry form and you tell our friends about your big surprise for
them.”
Bentley: “Okay, this is so
cool! Y’all enter below for a chance to
win a few of my favorite things. That’s
right…you get a chance to win, you get a chance to win, and you get a chance to
win!” *Impersonating Oprah
by pointing his paw towards you
Pierre:
“Okay, I’m ready! Did I
miss anything? Where is the cake? Oohh, I see our friends are arriving! Hey y’all, come on inside. Help yourself to the homemade dog treats, pupcakes,
frozen treats, tuna dip, and catnip; we have some dehydrated apples for those
of you watching your waist. I believe
Ruby is making her famous Rubyritas over at the bar. There is some tasty Banana Berry punch on the
table. There’s supposed to be cake
somewhere!”
Me: “I
see Koda and the husky gang, there’s Emma, Bailie, and Katie. Is that Murphy and Stanley with Frankie and Ernie? Hey Sarge!
Where is Dory and Whitley? Everyone
is welcome to get the refreshments. Susie and Sidebite, the gator balls and gumbo are over on that table.”
Bentley: “Uh, Mom…this is supposed
to be Wordless Wednesday. We’ve done a
lot of yapping. I don’t want to be
busted for be too wordy. Do you think we
should show all of my party pictures tomorrow?
I want to take some pics with my friends. Hurry and get one of the cake before Pierre
finds it!”
Me: “That’s
a great idea. Thank you for indulging us
in a non-Wordless Wednesday. Please stop
by tomorrow to see Bentley’s presents, nom noms, and some of the party animals
that join us today. Good luck to
everyone entering the giveaway. A
special thanks to the fabulous companies that are celebrating with us by
providing Bentley’s Favorite Things. We
will spotlight each one before our drawing on December 13th, which
is my one-year blogiversary.”
♥ All of these brands ROCK! ♥ a Rafflecopter giveaway Pierre: “We are happy to be joining our BlogPaws friends for Wordless Wednesday’s Blog Hop. Enjoy their post and these other bloggers. Most of them will follow the wordless rule. ☺ |
