Parker's 11th

Parker turned 11 years old today....She still is a little thing and barely weighs 20 pounds, so she just doesn't seem that old to me...Guess she won't ever turn into an overweight beagle like most (including Biskit!)....But she is looking old in that sweet face....This is her napping and she raised up to see why I was bothering her....She is usually curled up somewhere snuggling in the clothes or in a blanket....
Her latest thing (like in the past month) has been to sleep in the dirty clothes hamper...She has slept with us for right at 11 years and then all of sudden she's in the closet??...I'm very confused by it....She will lay with Kerry and I in the bed, but once the TV and lights go off she jumps off the bed to her new spot....It is very, very weird....We haven't had a bed without a dog since we were seniors in high school and never since we have been married...Our king bed used to be a place for Kerry and I and all 4 dogs....
Since Sage passed away, surprisingly Parker who is extremely moody has let this little girl be her new friend...Kresee LOVES the dogs and so I'm glad Parker puts up with her most of the time...She still has her moments where she growls and jumps down to run away from Kresee...But there are a lot of sweet moments for sure....
This one was from last February during our big snow/ice storm....She loves playing in the snow and I like this picture of her:)
Parker was our 1st dog together as a married couple, so she will always be very special to us...Happy 11th birthday...Hope to celebrate many more with you...She celebrated by eating her entire bowl of dog food and Hunter's entire bowl for breakfast this morning...I'm surprised she didn't throw it back up later!!
