Happy SEVENTH Birthday, Blue!

The furriest member of our family turned seven today!

It doesn't seem like that long ago that Mark called me from Tsiigehtchic, NWT

to tell me that there was a little blue eyed puppy 

living under the bylaw officer's house.

My response: "Don't you dare bring it home."

Blue had other plans, however.

And here we are... seven years later. 

In all fairness, 

Mark didn't just show up with the puppy.

I was against adopting him because of the timing. 

Mark was working atrocious hours and I was due to fly to Yellowknife 

for medical reasons.

Who would watch the puppy?

I asked Mark to find out if the bylaw officer would keep the pup

until I was back from my trip.

Obviously he agreed.

Blue adopted us as his family soon afterwards.

Oh my!

Happy Birthday, Blue!

We sure do love you!

Year seven... it's Blue's birthday...
is it time to make cupcakes yet, Mom?

While the girls were busy making PUPcakes,
Blue was not far away 'supervising'.

He got a little closer as we added more and yummier ingredients.

The PUPcakes are ready to go in the oven!

Cupcakes and PUPcakes.
Looks like they are a crowd pleaser!

Happy Birthday, Blue! We love you!!!

I couldn't stop Blue or Elliotte from eating their cupcakes.
Piper waited patiently for a candle. 

Maybe I should have called this one Blue instead.
Look at those eyes!
