Holidays

Yay!

Today Emily came for a visit! It’s Christmas break for the schools here and so she is on vacation. I picked her up this morning at her parent’s place in southern New Hampshire and first we went shopping before heading back to my place in central New Hampshire. A little bit of a drive, but oh, what fun we had!

The doggies were so happy to see Em that they went nearly insane!

Jacque lives here and she came over to enjoy the evening with Em and Hubby and me. We started off with a fondue dinner.

Since I was away when the puppies had their birthday we also decided to have a small party to celebrate their 2nd birthday, complete with candles and a cake!!!

Watching “Mama Mia”.

It was an entirely dog friendly cake (no chocolate), and the doggies ate most, leaving small bits for Hubby and the girls. I abstained. Then we opened Christmas gifts and watched my Christmas gift of “Mama Mia”, which I could watch over and over, if for not other reason than to sing to the soundtrack!

Did someone say, “open presents?”

The evening ended with Em and Arnie snuggled up together. They are both crazy about each other and it was terrific that they got to spend time together.

I love holidays!

  1. What a fantastic day! You are great with teens! Fondu is always a hit, film, cake, party party and 2 happy birthday puppies! What could possibly top that. Your little birthday party is just too cute!! Give the puppies a birthday squeeze from me, even if it is a bit late.

  2. This is the most darling thing. Those pix of the doggies cuddled up with her are completely precious.

    Soooo sweet!

  3. Oh that’s great! Always good to get a kid in the house! They just liven things up! Enjoy the visit! Happy belated birthday to the pups – I’m glad they got their cake! I’m sure they felt neglected on their real birthday… 🙁 … but all is well in their world now!
