Snowy Sunday!

Good morning everyone! I woke up this morning to a BIG surprise!

SNOW!!!!!!!!!!


Mommy said they were the biggest, fattest snowflakes she'd ever seen! Daddy said it looked like a feather pillow exploded! I forgot what snow was from last year, so I was a little bit annoyed when it kept hitting me in the head while I was trying to pee!

The weather people said that we're supposed to get about two inches all total between today and tomorrow, which really isn't much at all to most people, but will likely cause a massive freakout and school delays here tomorrow.

We were busy yesterday "decking the halls" (sort of). Mom usually goes crazy and puts up THREE big Christmas trees but this year only did the big one and then a new smaller one in a planter box. She collects lyre ornaments and did our big 9 footer tree ALL in lyres this year!

Mom has been collecting these since college and has about 70 of them...with only a few duplicates!


Holden and I were checking out the tree and mom took this pic of us.

Awwwww...me and my best buddy!!!!


We also did a smaller little planter box type tree for our special family ornaments from this year (mom gets all of us at least one special ornament each year).

Holden's special ornament this year was a Chuck Taylor shoe, Daddy's was a cool "Kelley's Irish Pub" ornament and mine was a pug in a Santa Hat and a cute collar with a bone that says "good dog". Everyone also got a MOOSE ornament from Canada with their picture in it from Niagara Falls.

Mom said we're doing "Christmas Lite" this year because she is getting her tummy tucked on Thursday (YAY!) and won't be able to lift or do much for a while, so she didn't want daddy to have to mess with putting away too much Christmas "crap" in January.

Oh no...mom is talking about going out and playing in the snow! I'm not sure I like this idea!

Happy Sunday!!!

Salinger;

Before long you will love playing in it. Takes Bandit a bit too, to realize they are not incoming mortar shells specifically making him their target.

Your Mom's Christmas trees are beautiful. We don't have ours up yet. I think it will be a real test this year with my pug trio, making sure their daily shenanigans don't bring it down.

Yesterday felt Christmassy here in Manchester UK, the weather has gotten cold ~ 0 deg C/ 32 deg F and we had this weird freezing fog that didn't clear all day. I wonder how Pepe would react to SNOW !

We had snow too, but then it turned to rain. Yuk. I'll take the snow over rain any day.

Salinger, that picture of you and Holden just warmed my heart! You two are the bestest buds!

It has been in the 60's here in Okie-homa. Momma said it doesn't feel like Christmas at ALL! We want SNOW! :(
