SPECIAL PACKAGES AND MAGGIE'S DATE

First we received a surprise package from a very special blogger friend that we treasure.  You will notice that there are 3 toys.  One for each of us, BUT we all want the green one for some reason, and this causes some spats at our house.  Mom says she is ashamed of our behaviors and we had better knock it off or there will be no New Years Bash for any of us.

She sent us these little goodies also. Wesa really likes them, and had nevers tried them before.  Thank you Sweet Friend for this surprise.

THEN

I received my gift exchange package from Daisy at http://dailydaisydog.blogspot.com/  I was so excited about it!!!!

There was a eatable Christmas card which we had nevers seen anything likes that before.  And cookies, and bone treats, and even a DEER STICK, which wesa nevers had before.  See that cute little gingerbread boy stuffie, well as soon as Mom gave it to me, Maggie stoles it from me cos hers a meanie and then Gussie grabs it away from hers, Mom finally got it back for me and I laid on the couch with it safely under my chin.  Mom is going to take a picture of me in my new scarf so Daisy can see me.  Isn't that little pink tree just adorable. We had a very special place to put it.  It is beautiful!  Thank you so very much DAISY.

THEN:
Mom got hers box that she won in a contest from Jackie Bouchard and her dog Rita. She writes these really good books and Mom won the book Rescue Me and these other things.   http://www.jackiebouchard.com/

You can't see it very well, but on the book is a beautiful bookmark that Jackie's sister made for us.  It has blue stones on it and lovely little doggie charms.  There is a card with Rita's picture on it, a book with recipe of Scones, (no comment about my momma's cooking skills needed) and a tin of Peppermint Paws candy. We actually had to email Jackie to see if they were for us, or our parents.  We lost.  Thank you Jackie and Rita for the lovely gift!!!

Now just one more important thing.  Maggie's date.  We need to move the date for the contest enterers to let us know if they want to take my meanie sister to the bash, up to Sunday.  So on Sunday we will go over the list and choose her date, and let you all know on Monday.  Cos we gotta get our pictures sent to Sarge.  We have had some lovely gentlemen ask for Maggie's hand to the Bash.  It is going to be very hard to choose.

Merry Christmas
