Archie has a birthday!

It was Archie's birthday yesterday - 10 years old!
After brekky with a few blueberries as an extra treat the celebrations started in earnest!

A bit wet out so we got dressed up in our coats to go out.

The birthday walk.
As it was Archie's birthday he was allowed to decide which way to go.
Made a nice change from the Madwoman's usual high-handed
"I'm in charge so we're going this way" attitude.
 
Birthday blueberry muffin!
The Madwoman actually got up early enough to
make a batch!
Nom nom nom ...
Hasn't anyone ever told you it's rude to stare while
we're eating?
Opening my present!
 
There IS something in here, isn't there?
 
Got it!
A squeaky new squeaky tennis ball!
Just what I wanted!
 
Test driving the new ball.
Got to make sure it works properly ...
 
Birthday dinner.
With turkey of course.
 
Party games!
The Madwoman got out the Spinny game, filling the holes
with bits of turkey.
 
About to take a nap.
While keeping a close eye on my new ball.
Don't want the Madwoman pinching it and
wrapping it up again for Christmas instead of buying something new.
You may laugh, but it happened once before ...
