Another cruel joke? and Christmas photos

Lynne Robinson, Hewitt, New Jersey

Huh? From “this storm is going to pass us by” to BLIZZARD? I’ll believe it when I see it with my own eyes! Just in case I guess I’d better charge up the battery on my camera, don’t you think?

But while we wait for the the “blizzard” to begin I am going to share some photos of the kids and their Christmas. I hope Rick will put together a video of them like he did last year.

First, here’s a photo of our living room.

On Christmas eve we brought out the new dog bed we really bought solely for Bella so she would not sleep stretched out between us at night. Bella did not get in it but it was a busy bed nonetheless. Alex was the first one to claim it.

Then eBay.

Then Sam joined eBay and it became a cat bed instead of a dog bed. (Sorry for the bad photo.)

Alex grew tired of waiting up for Santa to arrive.

He was glad when morning came and he could take over his job of being “chief package opener.” Bella did a pretty good job this year too. I frankly thinks she just likes ripping the paper off.

Here is Bella with her snowman that plays “We wish you a Merry Christmas.” Gee thanks Auntie Linda and Uncle Phil. With this toy began a new Christmas tradition with “Auntie Linda and Uncle Phil” of who can find the most obnoxious dog toy.

Alex opened his buffalo bone that we bought the dogs when we were in Laramie. Yummy!

Hailey got one too, of course, but she doesn’t do opening.

The cats got very drunk on their catnip pillows.

eBay becomes a nasty drunk and goes a bit crazy.

While Sam just chills out and becomes very mellow. I think he pretty much slept all day.

Bella and Alex chew on their bones together. They are really good buddies.

We hope you had a great day! I’ll keep you posted on the snow report.

Welcome, I'm Lynne. You know me better as a 'new' Jersey Girl. But now I've moved once again, this time to North Carolina. Here I write about my thoughts, good food, and of course, dogs.
