DWEAMINGSPIWES

The day finaly awwived... We wewe all picked up by Ruby in hew fabulous jet....aftew a luxoowious, fun, flight, she safely landed us in bootiful Dweamingspiwes I think AirRuby is the most wondewful(possibly the only wondewful)way to fly.

(How does she avoid customs, and those annoying body seawches and limitations on luggage...you can even bwing nail files if you want..and then don't even get me stawted on the eatables and dwinkables that awe sewved...heavenly!!!!!!!)

the excitement was mounting...
aftew hugs and kisses (and bitey faces) all awound, we wan awound to see a few of the sights.
Isn't spwing a fabulous time??? How pawfect fow Biwfday celebwations! ...and we have so many to celebwate!
Blue invited us all to Dweamingspiwes fow this pawty she's hosting fow Snowball and hew own Birfday...but then we found out that two of the guests, babySTan and Eric awe also Birfday kids..so this should be a mega pawty.......I can't wait......

the many Bs said...

hi Asta, sometimes our mom is too busy to put up a new post or something else is going on and we want you to know that thanks to what you said about your mom, and a mom can only do what a mom can do, then our mom feels better when she doesn't have time to help us post on our bloggy. she spends time with us and today she cleaned our ears really good and then she trimmed our hair around our eyes and then she took Bailey to the dog store and for a little walk. so we're not ignored, it's just our blog that's ignored, but we still love all of our bloggy friends, especially you cuz you're a little fuzzy butt! hee hee *blush*

that's all.

woofs.

Deetz said...

The party boat looked like so much fun, I wish I could have been there. I had to go to the doctor on Saturday..I am fine, but my bones hurt alot. I saw 4 pit bulls all packed together down the road from where I live and they didn't look too much like Brad Pitt, but they looked really mean. Mum now is all freaked out when I am outside.

Eric said...

Rocking Pawty!!!!!

You were one fab foxy in your orange frocksie. It was sooooo daring my sweetie Asta, it must have been from Barkneys? And your platinum diamond belly ring...from Sniffany's or Catier?

Photos are amazing,and thanks for sparing my blushes saying I was looking in the water when I was really oops,a-pukin'. Must of been the sun and all the punting. Such hard work and I seemed to have a lot of the members of Jackson's Substantial terriers to punt around . .


Wiry wags, Eric x x x x

Harry said...

Wasn't it a superb weekend, so glad everyone enjoyed their time in Blighty.

Also, thanks so much dear Asta for keeping an eye on Cassidy for me while she had her seaside trip with BabyStan. You're a darling.

Two Schnauzers from New England said...

Hi, Asta -

Thanks for the tips. We were able to put the blue rose on our blog. You ROCK! When you get a chance come see the rose on our blog. Mama thinks it looks really nice.
Mama was saving this as a word document and that's why it came out wrong.

We think we like the quiet fireworks but that Prison Motel was pretty neat too.

Love -

Hershey and Kaci

Sassy Kat said...

Wow, you doggies sure know how to have a good time. I like the Air Ruby plane, reminds me a little of Opus and Roscoe's time machine. It is a good thing to have when you are traveling. Looks like you had a fun time together. I think you looked all beautiful and handsome for your evening outing. Happy birthday to all. Keep the party going.

Joe Stains said...

GREAT photos!! that boat ride was a little scary but being way up on top like that was better, the farther away from the water the better. Tanner is still sleeping, he sure danced a lot!

Patience-please said...

It looks like you had a marvellous trip! Honestly Asta, you have the BEST pupparozzi in the entire doggone world!
