Pets Mart "Howl-oween" party

Pen the Lobster!
Annie with her Slider Boo. He was dressed up as Preppy Academic since he is about to get his degree from Petsmart in obedience training.
Cute little witch A paratrooper! This cat got second place The fireman got first place That was Pen's costume last year Pen was very annoyed that she was a lobster but she got a big whooping goody bag at the end of the party.
Tinkerbell He is so cute A Bee! I had my hands full with my babies
Pen was mortified that I made her wear the costume. Hi Slider Great time!

Missing Dada

Wrestling with her Partner in Crime So stinking cute We played at Lynnhaven Mall's children's area when the weather was too cold
Giant Octopus Ahoy Ava! She is such a climber Greg left Saturday for Key West with his class. Right now Key West is having its annual "Fantasy Fest" which includes many retirees wearing nothing but body paint in public accompanied by gay men wearing S&M attire. Needless to say, he is a bit homesick. The Navy is keeping them very busy and they are doing several flights a day. Dukes came down last Sunday and will be coming again this weekend to visit.

Partner in Crime

Penny starts to sit by her food at 4:00 PM everyday in anticipation for her dinner time (which is at 5:30 PM). Penny has now enlisted the help of Ava to try to sneak into the cabinet to get Penny's food early. Two days ago I caught Ava EATING Penny's food. You are telling me she won't eat carrots but she will eat dog food? What does that say about my cooking?
