It's My Party, and I'll Pass Out if I Want To :)

It's over. 

Sigh.

Louis is no longer a "puppy".  I was told this on Saturday night when I kept saying "where is the puppy?" or "come here sweet puppy".  I was told that my little guy was now officially a dog.  Me no likie :(

So, I will continue to refer to him as a puppy here on my blog because this is my world.  And in my world Louis will  ALWAYS be a puppy. 


Now that we've gotten that out of the way, let me share some photos with you of Saturday's festivities.  And let me just say....I have gotten about 20 texts saying "who knew puppy parties could be so much fun...and take a full day to recover from?". 

What is a puppy party, you ask?  Here...let me show you:

(Happy 1st B-Day Louis)

(BBQ, cole slaw, potato salad, baked beans....)

(...and cupcakes!)


(treat boxes for all of the pups!)

(pin the nose on the puppy)

(Ruthie, Louis & Daisy)

(Julep & Hefner)

(PLEASE mummy, don't make me wear this hat!!!)

(okay, okay...I'll wear it)

(shhhhhhh..don't tell her I'm taking this silly hat off)

(Diasy & Grace)

(Henry)

(puppy prezzies)

(Julep & MK)

(Louis & Ruthie)

(Barbie & Julep)

(Daisy & her pups...Grace & Daisy)

(Louis & I)


(Ruthie)

(birthday boy!)


(Grace, Louis & Hefner)

(Hefner)

(Julep)

(Ruthie's family)

(MK & I)

(Barbie, WIMP, me, R, S & MK)

(The birthday boy is getting tired....)

(going, going, going....)

(gone)

So, that is a puppy party. Lots of good friends (both four legged and two legged), lots of laughter, lots of puppy treats and lots of good people food.


On another note....I visited the website of the breeder that we got Louis from, and I found some photos of his parents.  I showed them to Louis, but he didn't seem very impressed.  I guess that means he doesn't miss them anymore?  That we are his family now?  I hope so :)

(Louis' dad - Ch. Fox Creek Paynes Bagpiper - "Piper")

(Louis' mom - Rhythm)

And finally, I've got some very exciting news to share with you, so stay tuned!!

Holy Wagging Westie Tails, Batman!

Looks like a heckuva party. Once I'm not a city girl anymore, I can have a puppy, too & I will throw puppy parties in your honor. What a great idea!! Pups seem like they had a really fun night! :-D

These pictures are adorable! Definitely giving me inspiration my dog's birthday! And don't worry about still calling Louis a puppy... My gordon setter turns 10 tomorrow and I still call him my puppy!

Adorable! Does Daisy have a dog named Daisy?

Sweet Southern Prep said...

How sweet and thoughtful is that? I love that creative idea. Maybe I should throw one for my dog, and his doggie friends. :)

P.S. I was able to mail off your dress on Saturday, so hopefully it will get there sooner. :)

Looks like such a fabulous puppy party! Louis is one lucky little guy!

I totally know what you mean about calling him a puppy! Mason is definitely still a puppy, but I can't imagine ever making the switch to not calling him puppy!
