A Happy Havachon Christmas!

My computer is in the Geek Squad Hospital and has been for the past week, which is why I’ve been absent from the blogosphere. Hopefully I’ll get it back before 2015! I’m borrowing DD’s computer to put up my final post for 2014, which I had already done (thankfully!).

When we decorate for Christmas, we really get into the decorations – literally!

We’re all wrapped in garland

Do we have to do this EVERY year???

Or lights

Daisy’s all lit up for Christmas!

I love how the color from the lights spreads through her white fur, just like snow-covered outdoor lights!

Sometimes the decorations get into us, like when this branch we cut from the bottom of the tree decided to turn DD and Daisy into reindeer:

DD’s impression of a new age reindeer….

….and Daisy’s impression of a canine reindeer!

This year I found a treasure within the Christmas tree as I was putting the lights up. I felt like the tree was giving us a gift of the season – nature’s beauty.

Rarely do we find a beautiful little pine cone nestled within the tree branches – a true gift from nature!

This will probably be our last post for 2014, so we wish everyone a very Merry Christmas, happy holidays, and a very happy and healthy new year!

A Merry Misaki Greeting!

Daisy got her first blog-buddy Christmas card this year from her good friend Misaki! She was so excited and wants to frame Misaki’s pretty picture to put up over her dog bed. 🙂

Did you see this great Christmas card Misaki sent me? I’m reading it now!

Doesn’t Misaki take a beautiful picture?

I’m sending Misaki lots of puppy Christmas kisses!

We were not as efficient as Misaki in getting out our holiday greetings early – ours went out to the Misaki family only the day before we got theirs….and we thought that was early! (oops!) I guess I forgot that I needed to allow extra time for the postal service to get packages across the pond. It’s coming, Misaki! We didn’t forget! 😀

As I’m sure is the case with everyone else, we’re in the throes of holiday craziness here in the Daisy household, but since we’re decorating a newly designed living room/dining room/hallway/foyer, it’s extra fun this year.

Hope you’re all enjoying the holiday season too! Today we’re part of the Thursday Barks & Bytes blog hop!

Daisy, The Horror Film Star

After the hectic Thanksgiving/Black Friday weekend, give yourself a 1 minute 30 second break for a chuckle with this YouTube video, starring DD…and someone else you might recognize at the end…

(You’ll see “NaNoWriMo” in the title of the video; if you’re not familiar with it, it’s short for National Novel Writing Month, a one-month long writing challenge where writers network and try to write 50,000 words of their novel during the month of November. It’s lots of fun, and DD made this video during her participation in NaNoWriMo.)
