High five to me, the cutest, smartest, hound around! Today I am five, hard to believe, but true. At least I am home schooled so I don’t have to take that big bus every day!
For my birthday photo shoot, we went to the Swing Bridge. With Mom’s arm in a sling, doing things with one hand, she wasn’t up for much. We still managed to get a few shots of me for my special day.
Do you like my hat? This is my new, custom made party hat from The Sand Dollar Dog Company. Of course, it is orange, and I love the polka dots and bright orange pom poms. It looks great on my head furs too!
Here I am on the bridge itself. Bailie did a post about the history of this bridge a few years ago. It is interesting to see as it only goes half way across the river.
There are big rocks on the bridge for people to sit on. Why not let me lie down on one, right? Mom thinks I’m cute and puppy like when I lay like this.
Here is another photo of me at the start of the bridge. The day we were there, it was super windy, so my furs are blowing all over the place. At least my hat stays on my head!
Mom says I do have a bit of “attitude”. We thought this photo would be appropriate for a five year old to end with since we couldn’t do a high five with Mom’s arm. I’m super excited to be five and to have a fun birthday party this afternoon!

I love your birthday hat and I”m so impressed that it stayed put on your head in that brisk wind, Olivia! That bridge is so cool!
We like the little bridge park and it was perfect for a one armed photographer this year!
I love your hat (wishin’ I had such a purrty one) … love your out-to-walk pictures (wishin’ I could go for walkabouts) … and mostly LOVE that we share a birthday, how totally pawsome is that. There’s no one better I could want to share it with … Happy Fifth Birthday, beautiful Olivia. Your friend, JUNE (a cat) and her Mommy, too.
It’s fun to share a birthday, even with a nice kitty. You need my hat in a mini size but you might want to play with the pom poms? Hope your birthday is a Grand one!
Happy Birthday!!!! I am five and it is awesome!! Have a fun day. your friend Chester!!
I am hoping five is a good age. There really isn’t much of a choice, so I am going to find out and make the best year I can out of it!
High Five indeed! Happy Barkday, sweet Olivia. 🎉
Thank you. I even know how to do a real high five with humans.
Your hat is spectacular. Just love it. Happy Birthday to you. Hard to believe that you are 5. Enjoy your day!
Mom seems to feel I should be stuck at three, but I am five and it will be a fantastic year because it is my year!
Can’t wait for the party pictures!!! “Orangech” you the cutest ever??? Home schooling is the best – you never miss the bus!!
HAPPY/HAPPy/HAPpy/HAppy/Happy birthday!! Five is fantastic!!!
We are all happy about being mainly home schooled with occasional field trips for training purposes. It fits our lifestyle well.
Mom did a great job getting great shots of you to commemorate your birthday. I love your orange hat. It matches your orange leash. It’s perfect.

Thank you for joining the Awww Mondays Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Awww Monday and week. Scritches all around and healing hugs to your wonderful mom. ♥
Mom is very particular about our colors and having everything match. If she brings the wrong color leash, the world almost ends for her, LOL!
Oh ~ Happy Birthday to you ~ the best 5 year old ever ~ sweet photos of you even with ‘an attitude’ ~ healthy to have sometimes ~ have a great day ~ hugs,
Wishing you good health, laughter and love in your days,

Mom says I do have more of an attitude than any of my siblings but I have earned that right because I am a very talented girl. The main thing is that I am nice to everyone.
I say with 10000% certainty I agree with this statement
HIGH FIVE TO ME – THE CUTEST, SMARTEST, HOUND AROUND!
I love you in orange

Thank you. I believe it to be true too. If you believe in yourself, anything is possible and I truly believe in myself being able to do anything.
Orange is definitely your color!! Happy birthday.
Thank you. I love it because it is nice and bright and draws attention to me.
Happy Birthday, Olivia! We know your Mom and siblings will help make it a very special day for you!
It’s an ugly weather day, so lots of napping going on, but my party will be happening soon and that will be super fun.
Happy Happy 5th Barkday Olivia!!!! I know you are having a pawesome day!
Thank you. I’m excited to be five and see what I can do at my new age.
That is definitely a happy hat and the color is perfect for you. I was not home schooled, but we only live a half block from my school, so NO bus for me either. Lucy is definitely home schooled. She doesn’t like the noise the garbage truck make on their rounds, so I’m not sure she would ride a bus, but she does like to ride in my truck. Have a blessed day.
We would ride on a bus, but having to listen and pay attention to teachers for the whole day would not really be in our wheelhouse. We prefer to do what we feel like doing most of the time.
I wish you many, many happy returns of the day!
Thank you.
You are adorable and a most Happy Birthday from all of us!
Thank you all…humans and eight cats. You could make your own version of the old TV show Eight is Enough, LOL, but your fur kids are much cuter.
Five sure looks good on you Olivia!!!
xoxo,
Sunny & Rosy
Thank you.
