Ice Cream!!!!!!!!!!!

Dad suggested that we go out for ice cream last night after our oonie dinner! It's not hot here at all but mom was up for an outing!
Mitch has never ridden in dad's truck before. I think I told you all that dad has custom outfitted his back seat just for me. It's like a big playpen and I love it this way! He covered a piece of plywood with carpeting so we don't have to worry about falling out of a seat and there's lot of room for toys and blankets and even to lay down and sleep!
Mom grabbed my special red ice cream spoon and one for Mitch and off we went. I had no problem jumping into dad's truck but Mitch needed some help. His legs are still too short for such a high jump! He wasn't sure at first if he really liked this truck stuff. He was clinging to me like velcro. He looked pretty nervous about this whole adventure.

It only takes us about 10 minutes to drive to Durham (next town over) to the ice cream stand. Mitch started to relax about half way there. Once we arrived, dad asked mom what kind of ice cream she wanted. She always chooses frozen vanilla yogurt so she can share with us! Dad ended up with a raspberry chocolate chip and boy did it ever look yummy! Mom said that we couldn't have any of that! What a meany!
Mitch seemed to come to life when he saw people eating! hehehehe - that's my brother!
See Mitch - here comes dad with our ice cream! Wait till you taste it - you'll be begging for these trips every single night!
Here's Mitch getting his first lick of frozen yogurt. He had no problem deciding if he liked it or not!Now it's my turn!This is the BEST part about summer and heat - the ice cream! mmmmmmmmmmmmm

On the way home mom turned around to see how Mitch was doin' and he had this doofus look on his face. Do you think maybe it's a brain freeze? hehehehehe


I sure hope another trip to the ice cream stand will happen soon! That was fun and it was a great idea dad! Thanks!

Until next time................

Love ya lots,

Maggie

  2. Hi Maggie,
    We have met at the Pawty. My human is in love with Airedales after she see so many of your kind at the pawty. She keep saying that you guys has got cute teddy face.

    I am so jealous. I hope that she will not abandon me to get an Airedales as my house is strictly a 1 dog only home (Rules set by my human parents.)

    Can I link you to my blog so that I can learn from you guy on how to behave like an Airedale and so my human will love be more?

  8. Yummers. Maybe I can convince my moms to take me out for some ice cream.

    I'm thinking french vanilla, no nuts, no sauce.
