Big Day Today!

Hi everypuppy! It's me - Amber! Today is the big day! It's Groundhog Day! For our international readers who may not know about Groundhog Day, please click here to go back to last year's post. Stormy gave some really good links to explain all about Punxsutawney Phil and how he decides if we're going to have six more weeks of winter or an early spring. This year, he decided we're going to have six more weeks of winter! YEA, Phil!

Stormy also explained last year that coincidentally enough, I was born on Groundhog Day! Given my ability to predict whether or not we're going to get snow, it's rather appropriate, don't you think? Hee hee hee!

Mom took me outside this morning to get my prediction. I got my snooter busy ...

and checked for any lovely snow in the area. (I look a little bit like Meeshka in that picture above, don't you think?)

I gave the forecast a lot of careful thought, as you can see. Sadly ... our immediate forecast is ...

... no snow. Sigh. If only I could request and not just predict!

Yoplait has a new snooter-friendly yogurt cup. I predict we'll get to share some of that to celebrate my birthday! I hope you'll join us in the celebration - I'm NINE today!

Love - and paws up to Punxsutawney Phil!
Amber

  5. Happy Birthday!!!! You do look a lot like Meeskha in that pic. Well, minus the extra 'fluffiness' of course!

    Now if only Phill could send us the snow for those last 6 weeks of winter!!

  11. Hey ho,

    Happy B-day Amber. You are one good-lookin' gal. I guess we're in a kind of May-December thing, though, seein' as I'm just 2. But when you're as attractive as us--who cares about ages, right?

    Enjoy your Yoplait--will you share some with the others?

    We were very happy with Phil's prediction as we haven't had much snow this year! Six more weeks of winter sounds great to us! Gotta go - mom is giving us the dirty look!

  23. Am, I missed your birthday. A Booooh Rooooooh. I am so sorry. Lots of belated greetings and snoses and all sorts.

    I don't understand this GD thing but I am more interested in you anyway. You look very beautiful in those photos. I hope you forgive me for missing our birthday. :(
