We Are Ready For Santa!

Mama said we are ready for Santa to visit!  This weekend we finished up all the Christmas cards and the last batch is in the mailbox today.  We sent out a lot since it's my first Christmas and our first Christmas in our new home.

We hung up our stockings.  We don't have a fireplace, but took an idea from my sister, Bunny, and hung them on a shelf.

Mama hung some stained glass snowflakes on our windows.  She has a lot of them because in their old house, they had a lot of windows.  We are hoping that they stop the birds from flying into our window.  We had three crash into it last week.

I heard Mama tell Daddy that she ordered us something on the Internet.  Scout said she thinks it's Burpdog Biscuits.  She said they are so good!  She and Jack had them when they visited Abilene a few years ago.  They call them doggy crack on Greytalk because dogs go crazy over them.   I don't think I will be able to wait for Christmas to eat some if they are that good.  Did I tell you that I put my front feet on the kitchen counter when our Christmas cards arrived?  I thought it had to be a package for me.  I got in trouble.  I have to be better because Santa is watching and I'm still supposed to be careful with my leg.

Oh, Mama said to say thanks to Mary for telling us about the injured eagle.  The report yesterday sounded good, but they are doing more tests on her.  You my remember that the Mom to the eagles was killed last year, well, the father has a new mate so hopefully there will be more eaglets this year.

  1. I may just have to copy your stocking hanging idea as I don't have a fireplace. Glad you are all excited about Christmas - I need to get some decorations up in the next few days so Wanda knows what is coming, along with our cat and other dog, George. The reports on the Eagle are encouraging and she is fiesty - which is just what a "caught up" Eagle should be doing.

  6. I laughed so hard about Joey putting his paws up on the counter. It's hard to remember the "rules" when a houndie gets excited. Joey's so sweet!
