1 for Sally, 25 for Joanne

A couple weekends ago, my friend from work graciously let us borrow her house in Tahoe, and a bunch of friends drove up and celebrated Sally's 1yr Anniversary as a "Lo" and Joanne's "25th" birthday. The house had a huge backyard for the doggies to run around and was perfectly located with beaches 10 minutes away! So we spent our weekend swimming with the dogs, playing lake football, and relaxing in the evening with a delicious BBQ of bacon-wrapped scallops, tri-tips, chicken, and yummy cupcakes from Carol. Newt and Steven also participated in a 72 mile bike ride around Tahoe. Whew, I get tired just by typing that sentence!

Sally's friends came and celebrated with her and Jenny prepared some doggie treats party favors for all of Sally's guests. Also, I surprised Jenny with a photobook of Sally Wally (her nickname) and her one year with us.

Eggs and Sausages...Breakfast time!

The house had a beautiful deck in the back for eating.

Nothing better than basking in the sun with your cousin.

The poochies enjoyed an afternoon swim in the lake. Well, really only Brody and Dodger did. The torpedo (Sally) and Bonnie jetted back to shore immediately.

Brody, show me what's in your mouth!

Andy messing with Sally again, with rocks on her back. Sally the Stegosaurus dinosaur!

Carol's scrumptious mango cupcakes!

Joanne received the same musical Peanuts birthday card three times, including one from Newt!

After a fun weekend, it's time for lazy Sally to get her beauty sleep.
