Happy Birthday Courtney and Lucy!

Lucy and her littermates turned 1 yesterday!

(L-R): Nala, Lucy, Duchess, Pete, Bisko, Gretchen, Roxy, and Stella

Lucy is 1, Courtney is... (last year she was 36).

We're excited to celebrate with Courtney tomorrow for a birthday party at Smith in Seattle. She is going to be a great sister-in-law. These Brooks boys seem to need some stong-minded women to keep them in line.

We had a birthday party today for Lucy and her littermates at Edmonds Off-leash Dog Park. They had a blast swimming, playing tug-a-war and generally frolicing in the sand. All were very dirty and I'm sure all needed a bath, just like Lucy. Lucy came from a litter of 9 and 8 were present. We hope to do it again next year.
