Happy Birthday Babies!

When we adopted Belle we were surprised to find that she and Boyboy celebrated a birthday only a few days (and 4 years) apart. This excited me because when the time came around I would be able to throw them both a cute little doggie party.

And doggie party it was.

I wanted to make them  a doggie cake but neither one really likes their fruits or vegetables, even in dog-approved treats. Carrots and carob? Forget it. Apples and pumpkin? No way. Our doggies like meatmeatmeat.

Mum had found a dog treats recipe a while back on All Recipes. We've been whipping some up ever since. They LOVE them. They go absolutely crazy for them. When John takes Belle to her obedience classes he uses them as her special treats. I figured that this would be the best way to make their cake since

1) I already know they like it and
2) it only has three ingredients.

I think it came out pretty great, if I do say so myself. If you want to make this cake - just click here! to be taken to the recipe.

Don't worry - they didn't eat it all in one sitting!

At the Dollar Store I happened upon some fun party hats and a cute princess tiara for Belle. She loves anything pink & bright. Seriously. Only my brightly colored clothes are ever in danger of being eaten. She leaves John's drab clothing alone. She just wants to be ohsopretty. I totally get it.

She's so dark I have to tweak all the camera settings just so you can see her. 

I may have gone a little overboard. But they are just too cute and we love them so much.

Happy 2nd Birthday to Belle and Happy 7th Birthday to Boyboy!
