New Year's Eve

So I know that we all agreed to make sure Stitch had a very happy holiday season, but this is going a little too far.  Let me tell you how this is so not working out for me.  Dan got a lovely new recliner for Christmas and when I hopped up on the chair, I was scooped up and swiftly deposited on the old chair.  So look at this:

Yes!  That's right!  That is Stitch all curled up and sleeping in Dan's new chair!  This is not fair at all. 

Another noisy day

Dan got all the rocks broken up and hauled gravel all day over by his workshop.  Allana told me that Dan is tired of his workshop flooding every time we get a heavy rain.  I'm not sure why digging this giant trench is going to prevent flooding, but I guess Dan knows what he is doing.  This is what he has done so far:

Personally I think Allana watches too many of those home improvement shows and she just thinks Dan is building a drainage ditch.  I think Dan is looking at expanding his workshop.  I'm sure he would like his workshop not to flood anymore though.  It should be quiet tomorrow as I think he is all done with the jackhammering.  I'm hoping for a nice quiet day!

Where did Christmas go?

I can't believe it!  The Christmas decorations came down already!  They never come down this early, and where there was once a Christmas Tree there is now a puppy pen.

 

 

These four puppies are way too small for such a giant pen.  All they do is eat and sleep all day.  They don't even play with the toys yet.  I don't see why they needed all that space!  Allana re-arranged all the furniture in the family room too so now my chair is on the opposite side of the room.  I enjoy the Christmas decorations and I was not ready for the season to end.  I think I want to be an only dog.

Another relaxing day

I love it when Dan and Allana are both home all day.  I enjoy having them around for company.  It was nice when grandma was here for over a month as I had company all the time except when she was in the hospital for two days, at her physical therapy appointments or out shopping.  The surgery was good to slow down her shopping hobby for over a week. The only problem that I have is that all the other dogs are in the house too and I have to share my dog beds with them.  Some of the dogs don't understand dog beds and they just lay in the middle of the floor.  Here is Star and Suri just chilling right in the middle of the floor:

See what I mean?  Right in the middle of the floor!  They could be seen as throw rugs and someone could step on them.  That is why Allana and Dan have dog beds for us.  These youngsters just don't get it.

Boxing Day

We had a nice relaxing day today.  Dan was outside making a lot of noise with a jack hammer as he was breaking up concrete.  As a result of all the noise outside, I stayed in most of the day. I was quite content to stay inside, but then Allana got the leashes out so I got all excited that I was going to go for a walk or a car ride.  But then it happened...Stitch went for a car ride and a walk!  Now he did have to go with Caiden and Caiden is pretty annoying, but still.  I think I'm been replaced!  I had to remind myself that we are being nice to Stitch.  I have to admit I had to remind myself several times that we are making sure Stitch is having a happy holiday season.  I hope I get to go for the walk tomorrow or at least a car ride.

Christmas at Grandma's

Grandma didn't stay for Christmas as she needed to spend Christmas with Auntie Janna and her family.  Auntie Janna sent some photos and it looks like the boys made a snowman!

I think we should have gone to Canada for Christmas!  We could have even taken Stitch with us.  We could have been lapping up hot chocolate under the Christmas Tree and looking out the window.  This is the view outside grandma's window...

I wonder when we can go to visit.

Stitch is home

Ch Bronwyn Suspicious, "Stitch" came home today.  Stitch had been living with Craig, but Craig decided to spend Christmas with his wife in Heaven, so Stitch is here.  I feel bad for "Stitch", so I'm being really nice.  I have played with him and have let him play with our toys and even lay in our dog beds.  I do hope he isn't too sad.  Caiden and Cooper have been playing with him and Halo has even been nice to him.  I don't know how long that will last as Halo isn't usually one to share her chew bones.  We are going to try to make Stitch's Christmas a good one.

I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas Eve and can find peace and joy in this Holiday Season even if one of their family members is in Heaven.
