One Fabulous Afternoon

What a fabulous afternoon we had! Dad needed to have his truck washed so mom and dad decided to make an adventure out of it! We headed up to the car wash in Madison, which is about 1/2 hour away! Once we got there, we had to get out of the truck and wait outside while the truck went through all of the soapy brushy wash! As luck would have it, the car that pulled in behind us to have their vehicle washed had doggies in it!We're outside and they're inside - 6 of them! Can you see them all? They were all sizes and two of them weren't even on leashes! Mom couldn't get over how well-behaved they all were!Unfortunately, mom didn't get a picture of them as they all came out of the building to get into their car! What a dummy! They filed right past us all grouped together like a family and they actually listened to their mom and she got them all inside their car with no yelling or HBO words! hehehe

Our next stop was Wendy's!
We've never been to Wendy's before! Mom gobbled up her hamburger and didn't share any with us and dad was ooooooohing and aaaaaaaaahing over his fish sandwich and he didn't share either but we did get French fries! Yeaaaaaaaaaaa!Next stop was Durham ice cream! whoooooooohooooo
Both mom and dad got swirly chocolate and vanilla cups with a cone on top! They only shared the vanilla ice cream with us, no chocolate, but hey, who cares! It's ice cream, right?!What a fabulously fun afternoon we had! Thanks, mom and dad! Can we do this again real soon?!

So until next time.................

Love ya lots,

Maggie and Mitch

  1. OoooOoooo!What a fun day.Can you believe those 6 GOOD dogs?! I hope our mommy didn't see that. Hate to raise her expectations!
    You are SO lucky to get ice cream.We might get some on Hootie's birthday. Depends on if we are on the road or not.

  2. OOOOOOOOHHHHHHHH- ice cream and french fries - this is the breakfast of champions!!!!!! Sounds like you had a great day out - not sure about those well behaved doggies - not even one bark?

    I am off with D to buy some fabric and sometimes we stop by a veggie fast food place - and I get something too! So I feel your excitement!

    Lots of licks

  3. We get so jelly whenever we stop by and read about all the foodables your parents share with you!!

    What do we get? A sting bean. Or a piece of carrot. Or a slice of apple. Sometimes one stinkin' frozen blueberry in the morning

    Pathetic.

    But we're happy to see how much you enjoy yourselves and what a wonderful fun afternoon you had!!

    Lots of wirey love,

    Jake and Just Harry

  4. Car wash, Wendy's and ice cream!!! Wow! I hope that you get to do that every weekend. Maybe next time you will get some burger to go with the fries. Glad you and your people had such a good time.

  5. Hi Maggie & Mitch
    That does sound like fun.
    When we go to the car wash, we wait inside the car & watch all the soapy action. Next time we're begging mom to do it like you guys, food & all.
    Love Ruby & Penny

  7. OMG you guys...the ice-cream again. How lucky are you two.
    We would have gone nuts if we saw those dogs...yep we bark like nutters especially if we see lots of dogs. It takes us a while to settle. You both sound like good dales.

  11. Ahhhh,....ice cream.And car washes. I like to go with muzzer to the one where you stay in the car. Then I bark and bark and bark and bark.

  12. Ciao M&M!

    What a fantastico day you had! I, myself, always enjoy an outing at the carwashy because I like to try to bite the water spray when it hits the windows. For some reason, this makes la mia ragazza laugh like an idiota -- santa vacca. (She also giggled herself silly over your comment about "HBO words"!!)

    That certainly was a super-duper Sunday, M&M (plus, ice cream ... plus, fries!) -- thank you for sharing it with us!

    Tanti baci!

  23. oh I am really envious, you always have so much beautiful looking ice cream. As you know, I have never even put my Marvin tongue in ice cream. Perhaps I will one day, I live in hope anyways.

    You looked as if you had a totally brilliant day! And the car wash looked fun. Those other dogs sure looked well behaved, like you and Mitch!

  25. my Dad went to the car wash this weekend and did NOT take us, what a rip off! I sure do think that Wendys makes some of the best fries, I used to get them all the time when I would go to my gram and gramps house! It looks like a great day to me!!

  27. Of all the sad news lately in DWB, your post is a spirit lifting one, thanks M&M. Life is beautiful isn't it? Oh, a fine afternoon with loving family to go for a car wash, hamburgers and ice cream, it's priceless!
    I love all your Thursday color post, this week is rust and I know for sure you're always pawsome about posting nice pictures!
    M&M, how can we help a young bird mother feeding their newly hatched birdies? I remember once you found some young birds, is it correct?
    We didn't know that they built a nest in my mom's flower basket near our bedroom door until one day we heard the little ones chirping. My mom place a bowl of bird food and water next to the basket but the bird mom seems not touching it.
    The little mother is still doing a fabulous jos raising her kids, maybe we should not interfere her duty, what do you think?
    Love ya lot

  34. hi M&M, what a fun trip to the car wash. it looks like you kiddos were good dogs too, right! you earned your french fries and ice cream. hey, that reminds us, we had cheeseburgers last night! isn't food the best!?!

    woofs.

  35. I'm scared of the car wash but I suppose it would be worth it if I got ice cream afterwards.

  36. you guys are so spoiled.......but what a great day. Car washes are so much fun, I love going in with mom when she washes her car.....but we don't get to have ice-cream afterwards :(

    ReplyDelete
  37. Yummy! Sounds like you guys had a great day!

    ReplyDelete
  38. Sounds like a fun trip. Mom is jealous of that ice cream. She says she can't eat that stuff. That she could just as easily strap it to her butt straight away because that's where it will end up. Whatever that means.

  44. That sounds like great fun! Isn't it nice watching the car getting groomed and bathed, while you stay perfectly dry?

    You've got the best parents because they take you out for ice cream. I have to beg and beg to get a teeny tiny taste of it from my mom. She's greedy.

    OOOOH...Ice-cream! Yumm! *drools*

  51. Two of my favorite things; car ride and foodables. Off leash doggies are not such a big deal as far as I can see. Such a fuss. I didn't see any dales in that pack.

    I hope it isn't as hot in Connect the Dots as it is going to be here. Try to stay cool.

  53. It is a fabulous afternoon indeed! Couldn't ask for more. Hmm...you've given me an idea about the ice cream. I'll have to work out some beagle doggedness to convince my human to give me ice cream on my birthday tomorrow!

  54. hi there M&M!

    hmmm.. fish and fries eh? hehe.. we promised, we didnt cheat, but sissy is actually eating teh same thing. (except taht its from Mcdonalds and it was bec. she got envious of the 4B's mum' bday celebration.. hehe.

    those dogs sounded really cool. at my age, the hoomans would not really go as far as letting me off with 10 meters from our house, bec. i'm so impossible to deal with.. hehe..

    just a little curious.. do you think theyd allow me to be "washed" in the car wash too? hehe..

    drooly kisses,

  66. Heya M&M,
    Shock of all shocks; Maggie and Mitch on an outing that includes burger, fries and ice cream. This is such unexpected behavior fro youse two....NOT! Don't mind us, we're just envious that y'all eat so much....better than us we mean.
    - TBH

  67. M&M,
    It's me again.
    My mom leaves the bird food which she bought from the store, I guess bird don't like it. Bird mom just flies by that, doesn't seem to be aware of a food bank nearby.
    So far, bird mom comes and goes to feed her babies regularly. She is very small but seems know how to raise her kids very well.
    I really don't know how to raise a Maltesenette if I ever have one, hehe!
