Raisin-My Canine Nephew

Sorry that I haven't posted, I have been really sick with bronchitis and a sinus infection. I am feeling better now, thank God!

I did manage to make it to my "canine" nephew, Raisin's 11th birthday. It was the best entertainment that I have had in a long time.

To the left is Raisin with his "mom", my sisiter-in-law, and his birthday cake. This cake is made from all wholesome ingredients. I will be posting the recipe for this on my other blog, Food! Food! Food!.

While Raisin was outside, my sister-in-law placed his gifts in the family room. The rest of us seated ourselves and waited for Raisin to be let in. I just had to laugh. Raisin knew exactly what was

happening. As soon as the door was opened, he darted for the family room and immediately started tearing into his gifts. As soon as he had one opened to where you could see what it was, he would go for another. I have never seen anything like it. He is so smart and soooo cute.

To the right is Raisin going after another gift. The hanky around his neck says, "It's my birthday." He is just adorable.

Raisin received enough treats to last him for six

months and he loves stuffed animals. He will actually suck on them like a pacifier. To the left is Raisin "tearin it up". He is such a good Boston Terrior. My sister-in-law sure can train a dog!

When it was time for the cake my sister-in-law cut a piece into bite sized pieces and Raisin devoured it. He really likes that cake. It was a lot of fun watching him enjoy his birthday. I was glad that I was able to be a part of it.
