Lucky me! When we arrived, Granny and Pappaw were there also! I conned her into swinging with me very first thing.
Then my cousin joined me.
She and brother laughed and laughed. I thought they were crazy.
But then I joined right in.
It was Mammaw Saunders' 80th birthday so we got to have cake.
She totally doesn't look 80!!!!
And you guys know how much I love cake!!! Think I could talk Granny into feeding me some?
She's too easy!
I have to DO IT!
Now what're we gonna do?
Who is going to pick me up and entertain me?
Yippeee - Pappaw came to save the day with a nice cool drink.
Then he took me for a quick stroll up and down the driveway (many times...)
"Are you tired of me yet, Pappaw?"
Then it was Granny's turn.
I'm a cool dude! Did you guys check out my T is for Tiger shirt from our zoo trip?
And Mim got me some new sandals with a reinforced toe on them since I tend to be rough on my shoes lately.
Official photo of the day (brother was playing ball...or eating cake...)
Mim and Aunt K tried to tell me that it was time for a nap.
But I conned my way out of that and got to stay outside and hang out with them.
Then Mim played "swing" with me.
And Daddy's job was to catch me.
Brother stopped eating cake long enough for Mommy to take a picture by the flowers.
But I smelled cake on him and wanted some - STAT.
Where's Granny???!!! She'll give me cake.
I ran to Pappaw and looked pitiful so Mim fed me some of the icing. Its my favorite icing in the world.
Mammaw and Pappaw Saunders lookin' cool!
Just clapping hands.
Mim thought I might pass out and nap in my swing.
But everyone was talking. I even put my fingers in my ears to block them out!!!
My newest cousin was there. He's only 2 months old. I didn't know what to think about him.
Maybe he'd like it if I did "swing" with him. It always works with me!
Me and my Mommy.
Trying to steal Mommy's glasses!
Ah-Ha! Got em! (Mommy says to ignore her 3 double chins here)
Putting the glasses back on Mommy. Just so I can get them back again. I'm such a trickster.
I'm a sly dog!
One more time...
Big Head on the Fourth of July!
"Who you callin' Big Head???"
I had such a good time. I was very well behaved for only having one nap.
Daddy tried to keep me up long enough to watch fireworks but I went to bed at 8:15 without a fuss. Maybe next year...I need my beauty sleep!!!
