For the Christmas Eve dinner, one of those boys wanted hot dogs with Yorkshire pudding. Have you ever heard of such a thing?

I had a piece of salmon.

Merry Christmas.

Kick Back and Get Festive...

The two boys are here this weekend and we're starting the celebrations.

Pumpy and I have been sitting in the window watching the cars drive by.

I hope you're enjoying the Christmas season...

Oh Christmas Tree...

Is it me or is Christmas getting downsized this year? Last year we had a tree (albeit a fake one) with decorations and trimmings. This year the woman came home... plopped this thing down on the counter... and announced that this was our Christmas tree. Everyone else was on board with it but, frankly, I liked that old fake tree. I knocked it over twice last year and chewed on the plastic branches. And it was nice.

The dog is being fantastically annoying, though. She found some wrapped Christmas presents and unwrapped them for all to see. It was lovely.

How is your Christmas coming along?

Happy Birthday

The dog is one today. I'm keeping my eye on her...

Meet My New BFF

Having this dog around isn't always a bad thing.

The dog has to eat in a crate because she goes all spacky when Pumpy and I have our fudz. So when I'm finished with my fudz, I stop by her crate and help myself to some of hers.

Hello fellow bloggers...

It's me, Pearl. Sorry about the woofie in the picture but honest-to-goodness, she just follows me around everywhere and wants to sit with me. What's a girl have to do to get a little space around here?

No worries about me, though. I have and WILL give her a smack down if she gets all up in my stuff -- if you know what I mean.

It's getting to be that time of year when some beautiful cards float through our mailbox. We're going to try to make our own Christmas cards but we did that last year too and ended up rushing to the store to buy them when they didn't turn out very nice.

If you send me your snail mail address, I will send you a card!! It may be hand-made... or maybe not.

Here's hoping you have fun this holiday season!

love, Pearl
