Una the beagle is four years old today! {Yes, I admit, we are those people...the ones who celebrate their pet's birthday.} I was away at school for her first three years, so it was nice to finally be here to fuss over her {just a little bit}. She is our first {canine} baby, after all. She definitely had a fun-filled day.
First, we went for a walk in the country, and she made some new friends:
These strange creatures (Alpacas, I think) remind me of a cross between a camel, an ewok and a weird teddy bear. Most of them were really cute, with funny personalities, though one or two were just a little creepy and intense. They sort of reminded me of a cult the way they all stood together in one place and just stared at us.
Then we stopped for lunch and Una had a hamburger (a real treat since I try not to feed her human food):
In the afternoon, she dressed up in her best party attire, ate a bunch of cookies...
...and then crashed out with her new toys.
She woke up again just in time to blow out the candles on her cake.
{Turns out, she's not very good at blowing at candles, so we did it for her.}
Happy birthday, Una!
She really has brought us a lot of joy over the last four years, and I'm so glad she was here to keep Chris company while I was away at school. We hope she's around to celebrate many more doggie birthdays to come!
Happy birthday, Una! I literally laughed out loud at your comment that the alpacas were kind of like cult members. They are indeed cute in a borderline creepy way! -Chloe
