Aside from just being outdoors is my absolute favorite annual event with Alfredo, which also happens to fall during the month of October. It's called Barktoberfest, and it's an event that allows families and their four legged babies to celebrate and appreciate dogs. The event is similar to an expo - lots of opportunities to buy all kinds of goodies ranging from leashes, collars, dog bowls, treats, etc. The very best station, in my opinion, is known as the Dog Vinci tent, where dogs can create their own work of art. This was Alfie's third appearance.
The arteest at work
Shockingly, he wasn't really into painting as he was in previous years. Nevertheless, he still did a terrific job. Here is his final product...
And of course, I had to take a picture with him and his new painting. I look proud. He looks exhausted.
This particular Barktoberfest was exceptionally fabulous because Auntie Noel and Cousin Joon Bug joined us.
Alfie and Joon were instantly BFFs. They especially bonded to and from Barktoberfest. Yes, they both sat in my lap pretty much the entire time we were in the car. It was one of my finer moments.
Additional excitement this October has been Alfredo's first experience with pumpkin carving. I must admit, he wasn't as into it as I had hoped, but he was certainly fascinated with the top of the pumpkin. He couldn't chew it off fast enough...
We didn't really need the top anyway. It's the finished product in which we I was most concerned.
This is by far one of my favorite pictures taken of Alfredo ever. That could change when we get our holiday pictures back in a couple of weeks...another event we took part in this October. Stay tuned!
