Easter Break

The long weekend started with an overnight playdate with Bruno (Shelli's puppy). At first I think Bruno was scared of me...but that's understandable as I was quite hyped on energy from being in the car for a couple hours! After I calmed down a bit, he warmed right up and we proceeded to play hard for the rest of the evening. The only break was when Melanie and I went to pick up Outback take out and the lady gave me a milkbone! Except for that, Bruno and I played (a little rough according to the humans) and chased each other! Luckily, Cane the cat left us alone as I haven't quite recovered from my run-in with Jazzy the cat. The next morning we got up and played some more before Melanie and I headed off to Amarillo. I pretty much slept the entire 6 hour trip except for potty breaks...I haven't played so much since I was a wee pup! Even after we arrived home (and I rediscovered the joy of doggie doors), I was still tired and took another nap. But after that, the real excitement of Easter set in as we prepared to dye eggs. I was pretty intrigued with the whole procedure and even managed to get my paws dirty trying it out At the end, I was very satisfied with our efforts and I have to admit they looked awfully tasty! Saturday night we celebrated with the traditional Kilbase, potato salad and rolls dinner. Unfortunately, I didn't get anything from the table, but Melanie did make me a special stuffed Kong. Then we sang happy birthday to Katie and ate birthday cake. The weekend ended Sunday when the whole family came over for lunch. I got lots of petting and attention! But it did make me really tired again...I practically fell asleep standing up before Melanie scooped me up and took me to bed. Today we are driving back to Aggieland and I plan to sleep the entire trip!
