This is Ajax and he turned 10 years old!! Scott gave him to me as a Christmas the first year we were married and he’s been my best little pal ever since. Hand in the air I’m one of *those* dog owners, he’s always been like a baby to me so it’s been rough for both of us while I’ve been finding my footing as a new mother. He’s had less attention than normal this past year so I wanted to give him a special day that was devoted just to him. We invited over my nieces and his dog friend Oliver and he was in doggy heaven!

My Dad turned 60 last weekend! I knew he wouldn’t love a surprise birthday party but I wanted him to have a really special birthday since it’s a big one! So I rounded up all my brothers and my mom to plan a family weekend in Park City. That idea he did love, little did he know that he’d still have a surprise party. 😉 I set up my hotel room like this so when he came over to our room he’d get a mini surprise. I came up with the theme Holy Cow, Dad’s 60 Now! It was SO fun to plan and perfect for him because it wasn’t a huge event…just his family!

I got everything cow themed and nothing goes better with a cow theme than a milk and cookie bar!
