Last night was mom and dad's celebration of life pawty! It started around 3:30PM and mom and dad didn't climb into bed until 11:30PM! This is late for them and for us!
As you know,we've been supervising the clean-up of dad's workshop all week long and Mitch even helped with the making of the Manhattan clam chowder and the chicken soup and I helped with the chicken appetizers and were we invited to the pawty?
NO! We ask you - how fAire is this?
Mom said guests brought appetizers or desserts or spirits and there was enough food to feed an entire country and were we invited? NO!
Dad ordered 10 pizzas and at the end of the night only 2 pieces remained - one for me and one for Mitch and did we get our fAire share? NO!
Check out the heart of the barn cake that one of the talented guests made!
We got a heads-up that this blueberry pie made it into our kitchen late last night along with an apple pie! Our tongues are ready and waiting! Just look at these luscious desserts! yummmmmmAmy is famous for her cheesecake and yup, mom got a nice BIG piece of it! And did she even think of bringing a smidge of it into the house for two starving pups? NOPE!
Kris brought mom a beautiful quilted square that she made! Mom just loves the colors!
And Jan brought her beautiful flowers on such a cold night! Thank you, Jan!
Guess what? We didn't get any of that snowstorm that Lacie, Stan and Scruffy and so many of our other friends got! Not even one flake!
The musicians played and they sounded awesome!
Don't they sound great?!
Mom and dad said they had a wonderful time! The food was delicious and their friends are the best! Maybe there's hope for us to be able to attend next year. We can hope, right?!
So until next time...............
Love ya lots,
Maggie and Mitch
WOW! What a fantastic PAWTY Maggie! MY MOM was so sad she had to MISS it! NEXT year she is coming for surest ever! She has already told NOBODY to get sick here at MY HOUSIE! OMG! Those PIZZAS looked so GOOD! OMG! OMG! OMG!
ReplyDeleteLove,
Putter ...
Wow! What a great looking bunch of foodables! We think your pawrents' Celebration of Life pawty is WONDERFUL! And it's even more wonderful that your dad is here to celebrate! Maybe, if you start begging NOW, they will let you attend next year!
ReplyDeleteBTW, we are hoping you aren't anywhere near Middletown, CT! Those poor peoples!
Aire-hugs,
Poppy, Penny & Patches
Wow, what yummy foods. I am getting hungry just looking at the foodibles. I think Mitch should start begging now, and you Maggie should start suggesting Mommy make kidney diet friendly foods for the party;then, you Maggie, should beg like there is no tomorrow for those foods. The one thing I learned from Mack's Kidney issues is that diet is the key to battling this disease.
ReplyDeleteSally Ann
They should make a special exception and let you guys attend next year.
ReplyDeleteBlessings, andrea
What a great party - our mum loved the music!
ReplyDeleteWe just couldn't believe all that food - enough for you two Maggie & Mitch and us!
Still at least you had some pizza.
We hope everyone there enjoyed it - especially your mom and dad.
love and kisses

Lucky! Yes, you two, Maggie and Mitch, you're lucky... Has the word "left-overs" entered your mind? Duh (slurp)
ReplyDeleteTwink!
WOW! And you know what?????!!!! The BEST part is the Reason for the Celebration!

Hi Maggie and Mitch! Mmmm! We're ready to drool just looking at those pictures! Sounds like your mom and dad had a fun party! -Hector and Lola
ReplyDeleteWhat a great party. Our Mom was eyeing that luscious bowl of fresh fruit. The desserts looked yummy,too.
ReplyDeleteYou guys got cheated.
looks like a pawsome party - but I don't understand why you two were banned?
ReplyDeleteWow, Maggie & Mitch - that food looks delicious. It is a shame you couldn't go to the party though, it sounds like it was a lot of fun.
ReplyDeleteHope you guys are having a great Sunday. :-)
Did you get to help with the cleanup and the hoovering of crumbs? Maybe help with carrying out the garbage or assit with the disposal unit? How about dishwashing? Were you able to sneak a lick when they stacked the dishwasher?
ReplyDeleteSniffin flowers is fine, but eatin pizza is much better!
Happy celebration of life!
Bonnie
What a swell celebration of life party!! We're sorry you couldn't attend,cuz the food looked yummers. And lots of folks to scratch your fuzzbutts...too bad. At least you each got a piece of pizza. Now we think our mom is wandering into the freezer for some ice cream...you made her hungry!

We would have loved to celebrate life with you and your pack. You know...Ms. Alpha is a cancer survivor and I think she lives life in 5th gear all the time. Talk about celebrating!!! Getting me as a puppy was proof of that.
ReplyDeleteI've got about a million snowballs waiting down here in MD. It's so much fun. The snow is so deep that a plow broke down in our neighborhood. That means no cars and dogs running free!!!
Yippeeee,
Fenway
What a wonderful pawty! Great food and music and such a wonderful theme!
ReplyDeleteThat food has me drooling somethin' fierce!!
Looks like a wonderful celebration.
ReplyDeleteMaggie and Mitch...we don't have any snow here either, but then, we didn't have a great pawty! Awesome.
ReplyDeleteNext year, we should have our own.
Gussie
Wow, what a great pawty! All that yummy food. I'm so glad that you both got a slice of pizza. The band sounds great! I hope you both can go next year.:)
ReplyDeleteLove,
Teddy Bear
Mmm, I almost fainted looking at that delicious pizza. It looks like the makings of a grand old time for your homiefolks! Hope they had fun! I can't believe you weren't invited though. Should've called me and we'd have found a place to party.
ReplyDeleteI think I gained a couple of pounds just looking at those pictures...
ReplyDeleteMaggie - Mitch:

ReplyDeleteGreat Pawty! It's still a celebration at my house! I is very sleepy....so full, and ready for guests to go home!
ReplyDeleteIrish Love, McGillicutty
Boy, that looks like such a fabulous pawty with all that great food and moosic, too. But how can hoomans celebrate life at a pawty and not invite you two? You a such a big, wonderful part of life. Yes, maybe next year. Keep your paws crossed.
ReplyDeleteLove and Koobuss Kisses,
Koobie
Gee, that is A LOT of yummy food!! Are you sure all that you got at the end was a slice of pizza each? Bummer... It looks like a great party though!
ReplyDeleteThat sure looks like a pawsome pawty..
ReplyDeleteWell at least you did get some pizza. :)
~ Bae
I've never seen such yummy foods and so many different kinds in one place! The clam chowder really sounds good to us now in this brrrr, cold weather. The quilt square and flowers were such pretty colors. You guys know how to celebrare!
ReplyDeleteI'm getting ready to listen to the band music. Have a great week.
I know, Maggie and Mitch! Can you believe it? I am so happy that the pawty is over (I think) and we can get back to normal (I think). I'm all for pawtying, but the Irishman went to bed last night. I can only do so much of Who 'Dattin!!!!! But we are thrilled too!!!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like a great party. All that delicious food and you weren't invited? We think that is cruelty to Airedales and you should report you parents to the humane society immediately.
ReplyDeleteYour friends,
Niamh & Ambrose
Old Girl and I are drooling on the keyboard looking at all that peeeeeeezaaaaa...
ReplyDeleteLook at all that delicious food - and the band sounds great - did anyone dance? Those pizzas looked scrumptious, at least you got one piece.
ReplyDeleteSorry about the snow - we got a little on Friday and a little overnight but nothing like THAT storm the others got.
Hope you can snag some of that blueberry pie.
Woos, Phantom and Thunder
Wow, what a wonderful party.
ReplyDeleteAnd yummy food. It's was a great day.

ReplyDeleteKiss for the pups, Bambi & Fern
We would have serious words with the pinkies. What's with not including you in the festivities?? You are the ones that did all the hard work...
ReplyDeleteWe're all for a celebration of life party!!! But it should definietly include two terriers who make life even more worth celebrating!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing all that food and cool music with us.
Wirey love,
Jake and Just Harry
Hi Maggie and Mitch,
ReplyDeleteDarn! We missed it! We forgot to mark our calendar! We are sooo sorry we didn't make it to your party. Oh wait a minute, you two weren't there either!
Well then it's a good thing we didn't come cause it wouldn't have been half as much fun without you guys there.
Wow, what a party!!!
Luv ya,
Riley and Star.
M&M, That looks like a fabulous party. The food!!!!! I'm drooling looking at those pictures. I have no doubt your mom and dad have great friends. It's because they are great people. I would come lay around your barn any day, although I don't really sing or bake. Just a dog, after all.

Hi M & M,
ReplyDeleteWow !!! Those are some great looking foodables. You would have thought there's be enough to share.
I have a special Valentines Mommy made for me for you but we don'tm have your addy, Could you please send it to Mommy at redricca@sbcglobal.net if you'd like to have it, filled with love and kisses.
You guys are veryn special to us too!
{{{huggies}}}....Mona
Your humans and their friends made some yummy looking stuff. Too bad they didn't share more. Even the pizza. My humans always say yummy stuff is bad for me. Then they open a can of dog food. How can that be better than pizza?
ReplyDeleteno pizza no party! and you guys looks like you need to demand some participation!!!
ReplyDeleteOh my! You is making mine and Mum's mouths water!
ReplyDelete~lickies, Ludo
What a great party. Everything looks so yummy. I think we are hungry now. Mom where's supper...
ReplyDeleteBig Sloppy Kisses
Gus, Louie and Callie
I LOVE food and pawties!! Being around friends and making memories, I'm all envious of your family!
ReplyDeleteIt's a luxury to have someone play live. Oh yes, the house is all woody and gorgeous! Is that home?
Ten pizzas? All of the food looks delicious!
