Molly's 2nd Birthday

Back on St. Patrick's Day, our puppy Molly turned two years old! (I guess technically she's not a puppy anymore...but I have a feeling we will always call her that!) Bo was out of town for a bachelor party, so Molly and I had the whole weekend to hang out together. I took her over to the Piedmont Park dog park, but she really isn't a big fan of it. She gets really shy when there are more than 2-3 dogs around, so she mostly just stands there and stares at me. Which entirely defeats the purpose, so we don't go very often.

I think the main reason she doesn't like that dog park is because it doesn't have grass. And she's a pretty big grass snob - so we hung out in the regular park for a while, which she likes a lot better. Such a high maintenance dog. She definitely gets that from Bo ;)

When we got home, she waited ever so patiently to get all her gifts...

hmm what else ya got??

Just like last year, I baked her a birthday cake! I used Kristin's recipe again, but this time used frozen green beans to decorate. I still think it looks gross (mainly because I hate cottage cheese), but the batter is actually pretty good.

I even let her lick the spoon and the spatula for the occasion.

Lesson learned from last year...I sliced up the cake and gave her a piece every night, instead of letting her attack the whole thing at once :)  She loved it! Licked the plate clean. And the floors.

YUM

And then she promptly passed out. Birthday #2 was a success!

Happy Birthday, Molly - we love you!!
