Spooktacular Weekend Part 1

Here at the HamiHarri house, we had a great weekend! On Saturday night we did a double date with the neighbour-roonies. Din-din at the Cactus Club (the mini-burgs were yum-o…but holy slow service bringing the accompanying fries…I'd finished the burgs before the fries had even arrived :(. After dinner we went on one Victoria's haunted walks…called "Ghost Walks" OOoooOoOooooo. It was spooky. It is amazing how haunted Victoria is… The walk taught us how to warm up our shockras to enable us to better feel the ghostly auras and spirits around us. Very cool.

We also carved our pumpkins… Patrick carved a laugh-tastic jack-o-lantern, and I one that said "Boo"…as well as a bat. I had one more to carve into a jack-o-lantern, but the top turned all mushy :(




On Sunday Meg, Pat, Bella, Beau and I all headed out to the "Yorkie Meet Up, Halloween Dress Up." It was fun, Fun, FUN! All the little Yorkies looked so cute in their costumes:

Here's Bella as a Bumble Bee


Beau as a Hotdog


Then we have Harry Potter


Meg with a Spider…


…and with a "Mail Mutt"


As well as a Frog Prince & Tigger…


After all the meet and greets and treats came the costume judging:


Bella won Best Costume for female Yorkie. Yay Bella!!!


The male costume contest was totally fixed though. An 8 month old Yorkie wearing a lame (I am so mean) devil hoodie won. I say it was fixed for a couple of reasons:

A: Beau should have won the prize (obviously)
B: If Beau didn't win, the Frog Prince or Harry Potter should have taken home the award (Spidy had already left).
C: The judge was holding the little devil puppy the ENTIRE time…and it was obvious she favoured it.

Anyhoo…we still had a blast! Bella and Beau had a great time (Beau more than Bella for some weird reason). They were able to reunite with their buddy Buster. Buster's Mom and Dad puppy-watched Bella and Beau for the entire time we were gone for our wedding (they are so nice!). AND we won the 50/50 draw :O $34 was split between Meg, Pat and I - yay!


After the Yorkie meet up we headed home to a lovely Sunday night family dinner where we all got a little goofy. Other than some sad news about the Harris family dog passing away (I'll be doing an "In Memory" post shortly…Docker was truly the "perfect dog" - even with all the drooling ;) it was a wonderful weekend.

Stay tuned for Part 2 next week after our Halloween Bash - whoot!
