Mulan is all ready for her first Christmas with us! She gets to wear the jingle collar every other night (alternating with Mickey, of course). Mulan even has her very own stocking, which seems to be made for her. On one side, it says "Dear Santa, I've been good." On the other side, for the off days, it says "Dear Santa, I can explain." We have to flip it around, depending on the day.
I sure hope it says good when Santa shows up...
Mulan's first Christmas tree! It's a live one-she has been carefully studying it, trying to figure out how she can dig this one up, like the other plants in the backyard...
It smells wonderful in the house with a real tree, and it even came with a surprise! A giant wasp. I carefully assessed the situation when I saw the wasp, decided I did not need to determine what kind of flying insect it was, and took shelter in the bathroom until Darwin and the dogs properly disposed of it outside.
We also put the tree in the living room this year, so all of our neighbors could see our beautiful tree!
My beautiful puppies are just counting down the days until Santa comes to visit them. When I open the door to the room where I am keeping all of the presents, they somehow make a bee-line straight for the bags that are holding their gifts. Dogs are incredibly perceptive in that manner.
In case it's another month before we post again, Merry Christmas to all!
Mulan says that she's sorry and she's going to try hard to do really good in school so that everyone will come see her again...How can you be mad at a face like that???
