{07jan2011: more ketchup}

Before playing catch up... in one month Darwin is turning TWO!!!  We're planning another birthday reunion like last year and it should be fun!  If you're in the Seattle area and want to join us we'll be at Marymoor on the 13th of February (had to pass on the 6th since it's Super Bowl Sunday).

Back to catch up.  You all saw Darwin's Christmas bow picture, well there's more fun pictures from that day at the dog park.  Darwin was extra wound up that day and was running around like a crazy dog.

{woo hooooooo the park!!!}

{hurry up mom and take the picture so i can go playyyyyyyy}

It was raining like crazy in December and parts of the park were flooded.  This little sunken area is usually dry and Darwin ignores it.  This time it was full of water and Darwin had a blast running through it.

{zooomies!!!!!!!}

Being a Sunday, we ran into some Dane friends.

{hello there big boy}

{he's after meeeee!!!!   aaggggggghhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!}

For the first time ever, she chased after Greta.  We see Greta almost every week at the park, and this was the first time they ever played together.

Then Tessa showed up with her Christmas bells on and more games of chased commenced.

Soon the "littlest Dane" Winston was there and it was time for bitey face!

All in all a great day at the park.  Darwin was POOPED after so much hard running!

{24dec2010: Bffs at the Park}

After Saturday's walk the girls were pretty mellow the rest of the day.  Sunday being Darwin's most favorite day of the week, the girls were eager to get out of the house and go to the park for the weekly Great Dane "convention".  

We ran into this big guy who was quick to check out both Darwin and Friday.

Then another blue girl showed up and a booty sniffing train formed.

We found the rest of the group and Friday introduced herself to the other Danes.

Darwin's Irish Wolfhound friend, Tessa, showed up and the two of them had a blast chasing eachother in the fields.

Winston showed up and wanted in on the Darwin play time action.

Meanwhile Friday was off to the side waiting patiently.

Darwin even got herded by a little Shepherd dog.

After we left the park we stopped at Target  real quick.  Darwin was in the back of the car, Friday was in the back seat. We ran in real quick, and I came back out while Jason paid and where did I find Friday?  In the front seat just hanging out.

When we got home both girls passed out and soon it was time for Friday to get picked up. It was cute and sad, once Friday left Darwin seemed so depressed that her bff was gone.  She was restless and kept going to the door.  We even heard that once Friday got home she wasn't acting like herself and seemed sad to not have Darwin around.  Poor girls.  

{25oct2009: Marymoor Dane Days}

A cold cold overcast Sunday, but another day for Darwin to hang out with her friends at Marymoor.

Darwin's first dane friend of the day was this good looking 7 year old, Axel.

For an older guy he was pretty active and was willing to put up with hyper Darwin for a while.  Luckily for him 2 other danes were around and Darwin got distracted by them.

In an effort to warm up, we started walking around the park and met up with more of the group.

We also ran into the merle puppy Bella again, and she and Darwin and the irish wolf hound puppy Tessa got to chase eachother around.

I think I need to invest in some warm junky clothes to wear to the dog park, cause I was freezing yesterday, and my snowboarding jacket is now covered in dog slobber.
