Happy first birthday to our crazy butthead cuddly fluffy mutt, Trooper da Booper da Snooper da Whooper da Boop Boop Booper Trooper!

He is a joy and a pain and he sure is getting big!

Brendan made him his very own special birthday cake. We found a recipe online called “Spoiled Dog Cake” which is perfectly fitting. It is made with pumpkin puree, peanut butter and applesauce.

Of course Trooper got to lick the beaters! He approved.

Getting Trooper to the table was a challenge, he wasn’t sure about the backdrop. He kept wanting to be on the wrong side of the table.

Happy Birthday to you!

Blowing out the candle

Trevor ordered a white funfetti cake for the human birthday party participants

Slice number two! Trooper eats cake like the owl in the old tootsie roll pop commercial. Lick number one!

Lick number two!

Gone in a single chomp!

Of course I made Trooper sit for regular pictures

Ultimate “puppy dog eyes” begging face!

Trooper’s little friend Maisie (Bailey’s dog from down the street) came over for some cake too!

She poked around and got frosting on her nose, but she didn’t want the cake at all!

She had to sit for some portraits too! She is just a puff of fluff!

Happy birthday, dog. We hope year two brings come calming maturity. HAHA!
