Mave’s 34th Birthday Party

Mave and her family celebrated her 34th birthday today with a forage that included young coconuts. Initially, Mave did not get her own coconut but after some time foraging her best friend Dora placed an extra one by Mave’s side. Did she mean to offer it to Mave or did she simply not object when Mave picked it up? Either way, Dora is a good friend and it was the perfect gift.

    How kind of Li’l Dora!
    Glad the birthday girl got her own coco!

    JB, this Rayne and Willy B thing that we saw around the Gatorade pool continues–how long has that been going on?! Whatever it is, it’s cute

    Now that’s what I call a pant hoot of a birthday party! I could feel the energy and excitement all way here in Australia. All the treats laid on by your dedicated staff.Happy birthday, Mave, you were having a ball with your friends. Thanks for sharing this with us, particularly the rambuscus fun with Terry greeting Mave. Brilliant.

    Maeve is simply delightful. I so wish her a happy new year of life, and of living it in abundance and style.

    Seeing and hearing (and feeling!) their excitement at mealtime never gets old! Willy B & Terry! Willy B following (like Velcro) Gordo! Willy B & Rayne are looking like a BFF relationship in the making to me!

    Happy coconut birthday to sweet, adorable Mave! Isn’t she lucky to have Dora in her life?!

    Dear sweet beautiful Mave…Happy Birthday! I’ll never forget when you first arrived at CSNW. You were the first to be transferred into your new home. Then, holding onto your blankie, you watched excitedly as your friends Honey B and Willy B were rolled in and released. It was such a precious moment that I will never forget. That’s also the moment I became a lover of CSNW. I was and am so happy and privileged to witness your continued sanctuary life as it expands your environment and your family and your choices. And thrilled you have a true bestie in Dora. You take such good care of your friends. And Dora is taking such good care of you too! Here’s to you Mave! Happy birthday sweet lady!
