Noodles For Fundraising

Bunny here, writing a little about our Tuesday evening.

It was a nice day Tuesday and we were surprised to see Dad come home early.  By we, I mean us hounds.  Apparently Mom already knew about this plan.  I digress.  Dad got home and I noticed that Mom had a bag of stuff ready.  They put things in the van and then got Blueberry and me and took us to the van. 

It turns out there was a fundraiser at Noodles and Company over in one of the cities near us for Illinois Search Dogs.  So, Mom and Dad went in and had dinner.  I thought this was a little rude.  I mean, hello, it's for dogs!  Shouldn't we get to eat some noodles for the cause?  Well, we did not get noodles and I was a little put out.  I mean, yes, it was a nice ride in the van, but I thought we were going to do something.

After they got done stuffing their faces with noodles, Mom and Dad came back to the van and then we went to Petco.  Now things were getting interesting.  I can forgive a lot if retail therapy is involved.  Inside, people fussed over Blueberry and me a lot, which also made me happy.  I found something I really wanted, but Mom said no.  So, I settled for some cow hooves instead.

I thought that was a nice day's adventure, but it turns out we weren't done yet.  We also went to the Constitution Trail and had a lovely walk.  Dad likes to go there and ride his bike a lot, too.  There were lots of people and hounds on the trail and even though it was a little warm, it was still a nice night. 

Then, on the way home, we went by Dairy Queen and got some ice cream.  Blueberry and I just had a little taste, but that was enough to make me a happy puppy.  I really don't want Spring to ever end.
