It's Birthday Party Day!

Yes, for those that don't already know, tonight we're having a little birthday party for Maddie and Dexter! They will be one year old tomorrow - what a great year they've had! So many adventures... Here's the little poem we put together for their evite -

From Maddie and Dexter:

Saturday is our birthday and we just can't wait,
For all our friends and family to help us celebrate.

After waiting 11 long months, we will finally be one year old.
Mom and Dad say that's 7 in 'dog years'
At least that's what they were told.

We've had a great first year, been lots of really fun places.
Between Houston, Mont Belvieu, NYC and Weirton,
We've met many friendly faces.

We learned how to bark, to whine, and to play,
To chase cars and people on the sidewalk almost everyday.
We even learned how to eat Mom and Dad's carpet -
gee, we hope that's ok.

We learned that we are Maddie and Dexter,
And everyone thinks we're 'sooooo cute'.
Gosh if we hear that one more time,
I think we just might puke!

The most important thing we learned though
Is how lucky we must be,
To have such great people in our lives,
to lick and love and see.

So because it is our birthday, we promised Mom and Dad we'd be really good.
If only they'd throw us a party,
we promised to behave ourselves like one year old pups should.

Though some of our friends and family are kinda far away,
We hope those who are here will come out to eat,and drink and play.

Friday, August 22nd is the party date,
Starts at 7:30 so please, don't be late!

Mom and Dad are getting pizza, drinks and cake for everyone,
Sounds really good, we can't wait to have some!

So rearrange your calendars and hang with us a little while,
One thing we promise, you'll definitely leave with a smile!


And, a quick thanks to Aunt Leslie and Uncle Bill for some fantastic early birthday presents - even custom Gators jerseys (Aggie Fam and Friends - we MUST get some Aggie gear for these pups quick - the Florida fam is well on the way to brainwashing them!). Enjoy the pictures - wish you all could be here to enjoy the party, we'll miss you!
