It's Darwin's 3rd Birthday!!!

We're postponing her annual family reunion/birthday party to later this month so we'll share those pictures when it happens.

But here's a few pictures of Darwin over her first 3 years.

One day old... somewhere in that pile of pups!

Three years old! (with her new monkey toy)

Happy Birthday to me!
One year ago we were still dealing with Darwin's gimpy-ness, trying to find the cause and a solution. This year she's healthier and stronger and I'm one year older!

***Sorry for the confusion. It's not Darwin's birthday (her's is in February), it's my (Darwin's mom) birthday!

Happy Birthday Jason edition!

{21feb2011: reunion party part 4}

We ended last week with part 3 of our puppy reunion birthday party and start this week with the last installment.


Darwin took some time after the family picture to show her brother who's boss.

Boo showed off his shaved belly from his tennis ball extraction surgery

Kristie brought out another one of Boo's toys and Darwin made off with it and started a game of chase.

And tug

Porky's dad brought some string cheese and all the dogs wanted a piece.

As all the dogs were sitting patiently for their piece of cheese, this little lab puppy came up to the group and was fascinated by Kona's tail.  It was the cutest thing!

Here's some video!

After cheesefest Boo and Olive had a bitey face wrestling match.

Kona took advantage of Boo being distracted and made off with the monkey.

When Boo saw his monkey had been stolen, he stopped his game of bitey face and went after his toy.

Olive wanted in on the tug match so she grabbed a hold.

With her tug an arm snapped off, but the two boys kept going.

Olive got tired of her arm and left it for Kona to munch on.

Here's some video of Darwin and Porky in action.

After the monkey massacre we all headed home.  It was a great puppy party/reunion and all the dogs were pooped!  We look forward to another reunion!
