Riley is 5!

Today is Riley's fifth birthday. My how she's grown! Even though she is now reaching middle age I still call her my puppy. This is how she looked on her first day home (when she was about 10 weeks old and truly a little, itty bitty puppy):

 Oh, the memories...

And here she is now, at age FIVE, all dressed up and ready to party:

Happy birthday Riley! Sorry you are being shipped off to your dog walker's house ON your birthday, but we have to leave tomorrow. But rest assured we feel bad about it.

Now, off to California!
