This was just the beginning of bonding for them. Brandon had the whole day off for Martin Luther King day and it just so happens that Monday is Daisy Ann's first birthday!
Daisy and I spent the weekend visiting family and watching football--Go Bears! Saturday we took a ride out to the suburbs and Daisy napped in her kennel. We stopped at Hickory Creek Forest Preserve not far from my parents home for a walk on the trail. A thin layer of snow packed the path. We walked into the full forest of bare trees and white snow. Daisy almost blended in with her white coat and brown spots. We even ran some. Daisy loves a little workout! We spent that evening visiting my parents and relaxing to a movie. Daisy found exactly where here grandma keeps the doggy treats.
When Sunday came, so did the snow. After church, we opened the doors to the most beautiful snow globe... Perfect for Chicago Bears football. Daisy and I went for a short walk to the park where it was oddly quiet. Everyone and their dogs were at home watching the game already. We took advantage of the empty dog area and made our own fun. We both fell asleep on the couch later when we knew the Bears were far enough ahead.
Speaking of snoozing... That's a hobby Brandon and Daisy have in common. Daisy greeted Brandon when he came home from his trip Sunday evening. After many licks of love, they kicked back on the couch when I went to volleyball. Come Monday, they spent her whole birthday together!
After sleeping in, they went to the park and played. Afterwards, they stopped by Natural Paws and picked out a few birthday treats and toys for spoiling.
We planned to go for a family walk in the evening, but it was raining (and Daisy's not a fan of the rain) so that didn't work out. Instead we went for a short ride together to pick up some food from Aurelios (Bears 35%/points discount).
Daisy had a full day of fun for her birthday!
Happy Birthday Daisy!
