Wordless Wednesday: Grandma's Toys are All Mine

We Won the Placemat from the From Daschies With Moxie & Pet Blogs United Contest

We waited to post this until we hoped more people would be back reading after the holiday break. We won a placemat with our pictures on it during the Pet Blogs United Holiday Contest from Dachsies with Moxie.

We resisted having our picture taken for this project having no idea what Mom intended to do with the picture. However, we really liked the mat when it arrived. We also appreciated all the comments of the relatives that visited over Christmas. The Dachsies have one amazingly talented Mom. She has an Etsy shop if any of you are interested in ordering your own quilted pieces.

Grandma Continues to be the Best Gift Giver

Grandma arrived on Christmas Eve with the most interesting contraption. It was a plastic container. Mom said it looked like one of those fancy serving dishes. The plate was a Frisbee and on it where soft squeaky food toys. Katy and I were very impatient as Dad and Mom worked to open the package and release our toys. We were very disappointed when Dad said not only could we not go outside to play with the Frisbee right then, but we couldn't play with it in the house either. However, the potato and the roll have become our favorites. The potato has this fleece on the top that Katy loves. I am not sure where her fleece obsession comes from, but it has not subsided since her visit with Santa.

We hope all of you had a wonderful and happy Christmas. Katy and I have been very tired. We have had constant visitors and have not had a moment to blog. We will be catching up with everyone next week.

Merry Christmas

We wish all our blogging friends and their families a Merry Christmas!

Our Christmas Hide Out

We mentioned one of our favorite things about Christmas is it gives us a new hiding spot. Mom decided to take pictures of us in our Christmas digs before the crowds arrive. Katy was not pleased. She has a strong belief about privacy, but felt better after Christmas cookies were provided.

Wordless Wednesday: I Wanted to Try on Dad's New Hat

Second Christmas Card Wreath Almost Filled

We are so thrilled that so many people sent us cards this year. We even got our own card and doggie bakery cookies from a crochet swap Mom was involved in this month. We got to share a ginger bread man last night. These cookies were huge. Mom had a swap partner with three shelties!

Santa preparations continue. Both Grandmas will be in the state today. Daddy's Mom arrived Sunday. Mom's will be here today. Neither stays here, but they will both be here on Christmas Eve. One always has treats in her pocket because she has a dog. The other brings the most amazing toys on Christmas Eve. We cannot wait to see what she brings us this year.
