"The Terrible Twos" (aka "The Terrific Teens")

My birthday is on Halloween (just one of the many things of wonder about me). It is pretty cool having a Halloween birthday. My Mom's dad, Grandpa G, calls me "Devil Dog", and I think it is because I was born on Halloween, and not because I tripped him that one time we were both going for the Frisbee. Lots of kids in the neighborhood come come over to our house that night to wish me a happy birthday. I bark at them, and Mom and Dad give them candy to thank them for coming over. I sure would like to get some of that candy.

But, my favorite thing about my Halloween birthday is having cake at the bark park with my friends.

A lot of my best friends came out to celebrate


Before we headed out to the park, mom wanted get a a picture of me next to my cake. I love cake.



I don't believe in passing up a chance to eat cake, even if I am supposed to be posing for a picture.




Heee heee... I got a little nibble of the icing



Sam and I were having a joint Birthday party, and Halloween costume party. Sam is turning 7, which is like my mom and Dad's age. And, I'm turning 2 which is really like 14. I like the idea of being 14, but mom insists that I am 2. Whatever, as long as there is cake.

I was dressed up in a bumble bee costume, because bumble bees are very very scary. The only thing more scary would have been a hot air balloon costume.

There were a couple of other bumble bee costumes, because bumble bees are scary, and make good costumes. These are the only bees that should ever "bee" (see what I did there?) at the park.






Eddie was dressed up in a devil dog costume, which is funny because, like I said before my Grandpa G calls me devil dog, and Eddie is like a really sweet dog. I don't think he would trip anyone going for the Frisbee.

Sandy made a great angel. Just, a word of warning. Do not bite Sandy's ears! She may look like an angel, but when you pull on her ears, she is no angel.



Laney is an official super hero pup. She showed up in her official uniform.



Zoe had a great Wonder Woman costume. I'm not sure if she is an official super hero pup, like Laney, but she sure looked the part.



Buddy had a little black bow tie, with money stuck in around it. I didn't get it. But, all of the people thought it was funny.





It was a great party. Lots of cake. Sam's dad showed up with some puppy cup cakes, and people coffee. Shannon's parents brought hot apple cider (which I heard was delicious, but no one gave me any, even though it was my birthday.)







It was a great time. I almost can't wait until I turn 21...or 3.
