The video below shows just some of the highlights of Jamieween (turn up the volume if you want the addition of music to add to the drama).

In addition to the fun adventures in the video, Jamie received not one, not two, not even three, but four pairs of new cowboy boots from her fan club of supporters.

One of Jamie’s top favorite foods is pears, so I decided to hide a whole pear in one of her new boots – sort of both a trick and a treat.

She immediately took that pair of boots, inspected, and nested with them:

She even tried one on:

But, apparently it wasn’t the one with the pear, because the pear was still in the boot when I went into the playroom later that day to spot clean. I was shocked!

It took another couple of hours, but Jamie did finally find her birthday treat.

Thank you to everyone who made this a special day for boss Jamie and us humans who had the privilege of celebrating with her!

    Your parties never disappoint! What an awesome day for all the chimps. I am still laughing at hiding a pear in one of the boots — sneaky, and what a yummy treat! Just look at that oh so satisfied look on her face as she enjoys the yummy goodness.

    I also had a good laugh over Jody dragging the enormous (and beautifully carved) pumpkin. Same with Jamie and the gigantor Piñata. Who were the artists for these creative items?

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY JAMIE!! I Love you. Those boots were made for walking! : ) Walk on!

      Stephanie Perciful bought and carved the pumpkin – I’ve lost track of how many years she’s outdone herself, and even though she couldn’t be here in person today, she came a couple of days ago for pumpkin creation magic. And Patti Sims made the amazing box piñata that Jamie had to have all to herself ;).
