PUPdate with Hype

We have an adorable PUPdate from Kirby!!! 

Kirby's family have the most wonderful things to say about their 2.5 year old FURever best buddy!

Kirby loves long sniffy walks

Playing fetch

A LOT of fetch <3 

Knows all his good boy manners and doggie tricks too! Like sit, stay, down, paw, other paw, focus, and touch!

He can even locate which hand is holding the treat!!! 

Kirby says blueberries are still his favorite snickty snack of all!

His life motto is 'Play Hard. Nap Hard'

Kirby loves to go to the doggie daycare to play with his friends and the dog park. His humans have done the most awesome thing I have ever heard.... They have hype music for Kirby for each destination they are going to!! So when they get ready for the park they put on his special park song or start singing it and he gets so excited to get ready and go! I LOVE THIS SO MUCH!!! When it's time for doggie daycare... Special daycare song! Is that not the coolest thing ever!! Ah to be a dog with their own hype music!!

Kirby LOVES his FURever family and they love love love him right back!!

Thank you for the epic PUPdate on Kirby!!

Enjoy your blueberries, ball, and music buddy!

Always,

Amelia

Okay, Hear Me Out...Apples

I know people go crazy for pumpkin spice during the fall, BUT hear me out... Apple everything in the fall is better.

I know, I know, I know it is controversial but there is just something about apples with brown sugar and cinnamon that just makes my heart leap with joy. 

Since I made an apple pie the other week and Colton is a boy after my own heart and doesn't like pie crust either... I decided to make a non-pie apple treat

Ready set bake!

Time for an apple streusel coffee cake! 

An apple cake is an excellent choice, but add...

A streusel topping and you have autumn magic 

Baked and ready for transport

Once we reached our destination, it was time to take off the cake ring and get to our vanilla glaze

AHHH. Falltastic!

And the best part? It can be breakfast too!

I know everyone loves pumpkins... But let's hear it for the apple lovers!

Hey Colton... How about those apples!

Always,

Amelia 

Forest Caturday

 Just look how brave our little Devon Rex kittens are 

traipsing through the forest.....

Look at this huge forest ahead of us

How can we ever traverse this thick wilderness?

I am going to try to make my way through

Oh... I need a rest

I don't think we will make it through this Caturday

Let's just hang out in this nice meadow

Happy Caturday!!!!

Happy Half Birthday Hazel

 Yesterday we celebrated Hazel's half birthday!!! 

This sweet, thoughtful, creative, smart, girl is now THREE and a HALF!!

And what do we do for half birthdays?

Make half a birthday cake of course!!!

With lots of sprinkles *obviously* 

And we mean LOTS

Of sprinkles. Don't forget to add in toddler giggling. That is required for the recipe!

Half birthday sprinkle fantastic!

Time to add the frosting and decorations

UH OH! Baby monster is awake and ready to "help"

Guess who signed 'more' and said Mooooooooooe the whole rest of the time we finished the cake.

Luckily we finished without too many casualties by the smallest toddler

Happy Half Birthday Hazel!

May you stay as colorfully YOU as ever!

I cannot believe you will be FOUR in just six months time!

I love you oh so Much!

Always,

Amelia

Charlie and Biscuit go for a Swing

 Kipper the dog the stuffed animal (who was once Grandma's lovie and now belongs to Colton who lovingly renamed him Biscuit) invited Charlie puppy lovie and Hazel to come over to Yesteryear Acres to try out the new swings Grandpa installed.

Biscuit was SO brave and tried the swing first

Good job Biscuit!!
