4th of July

Food, fun, live music, and fireworks... the perfect 4th of July.

My owners had a good time but I was scared of the loud *popping* noises in the sky.

Here is a caricature my owners had done tonight at the party:

The Big Move - II

My owners made me a seat between them so I'd be comfy over the next 3 days:

We saw many sights along our journey to Florida...

Hundreds of windmills in California:

Then a desert:

Cactus in Arizona:

Then another desert:

Drove through New Mexico in the dark...

And then we saw red highways in Texas:

An oil refinery in Louisiana:

Marshes and wetlands in Mississippi:

And finally... Florida!

How fitting... my owners saw an alligator cloud as soon as they crossed the state line:

And then they saw Aladdin on his magic carpet:

While my owners played these types of games as they drove, here is what I did over the 3 days:

The Big Move

Wow, there has been so much that has happened in the past few weeks... I don't even know where to begin!

I knew something was going to happen when huge boxes kept appearing in our home and our furniture kept disappearing:

I went to all these parties and everyone kept paying lots of attention to me:

Then I wore a black hat and marched past hundreds of screaming people:

And one day someone wrapped me in toilet paper:

So... four farewell parties, graduation from medical school, and one bridal shower later, the day finally arrived and we left for Florida!

We ran into some last minute trouble when my owners discovered that the professional movers that they had hired had an "F" rating with the Better Business Bureau. Sooo, my owners' fabulous friends came over to help them pack last minute - which they very much appreciated - and they decided to ship everything to Florida themselves!

We left my mom's car in the driveway to be shipped later and then said "good-bye" to our old home:

Graduating? What's that?

I think this hat is too big for me.


Yup, it is.



That's better.


That's my owner showing off his full regalia.

Today was Day 1 of the ceremonies. Two more days to go.
Ready to march on Sunday!

Sold!

We are packing our bags and moving to Florida! I hope they are dog-friendly over there. Just hope the mosquitoes don't like dogs very much though.

New 'do

My hair was getting long so my owner just gave me a new haircut:


Like it? I think it makes me look skinny :(

Open House!

We're having our first open house today!!

We made sure we had fresh flowers:


A big sign with balloons:


Freshly baked cookies:


Nothing left to do but wait!
