Simon dog days of summer & Daisy's 11th Bday

Used Simon Summer Cuddly Critters stamp/die for first time.

























Today is my dog Daisy's 11th Birthday. I rescued/adopted her from local dog shelter in 2014 when she was 7. 

Celebrated her birthday this weekend when we took her to a restaurant, Lazy Dog, that allows dogs in the covered patio area. Daisy had beef & rice with vegs. I had a coupon for free dog meal. I enjoyed a delicious Bison burger. 

Sun 8/5 I made her cupcakes using Three Dog Bakery mix and added ingredients: honey, water, oil & unsweetened applesauce. Shared cupcakes with friends & neighbors that have dogs. Sun I gave her a present, Treat A Dog Rug. 

I put in request from Home Depot where I work part-time for day off for her birthday day and gave reason as 'family birthday' which was approved.

Today, on her birthday day, I took Daisy for a walk around the park this morning. Enjoyed relaxing in our pool wade-out area (we changed our pool spa to a wade-out area last month, we did not use/heat the spa much, 3 yrs ago the spa heating element stopped working  and it would have cost more to repair the spa's heating element). Daisy did not go into pool until we had change to wade-out area and only goes in when we are in the pool.
