Mom and Dad took their sweet time doing it BUT they have finally finished decorating the house – inside and out! Nothing special about how they decorated – just moved some things around a bit from last year but one thing is the same…….MY Christmas tree has MY train under it!! YAY!
There are presents under the tree but I did a survey last night when they were asleep and not ONE of them is for me. Don’t they trust me? Do they think Elfvis and I will get into mischief in the middle of the night to see what’s inside my presents? HA! I wouldn’t do that……Elfvis might but not innocent me. I told Mom that I was upset she didn’t have anything for ME under the tree and she said “JUST WAIT”………….WAIT? WAIT? I suppose I’ll have to!
This is what the OUTSIDE looks like at night – – – I wanted to wait until it was dark-ish so you could see the house all decked out. Mom did wreaths in the garage windows with candle lamps this year which was a new touch. I totally approve.
We’re starting to get a lot of ecards for Christmas. Mom hasn’t sent hers out yet (shame on you Mom), but yesterday she finally got my personalized Christmas cards from the store so now we’re ready to mail the snail mail cards AND get the ecards out as well………………ALSO, we’ll be mailing off my Secret Santa gift box to my UN-NAMED RECIPIENT from the Secret Paws project – I hope they like what I got for them!
That’s about all the excitement around here………it’s Friday so you know Mom and Dad will be monsterizing the whole house……….hope they don’t suck up my train in the vacuum cleaner……I guess I’ll have to keep an eye on that (along with watching Elfvis!).
HAPPY FRIDAY!

Wow, Sammy, your house looks great. We’re so jealous that you have your own train! Our mom doesn’t put up a tree because of an incident that happened during my first Christmas here in my furever home; however, I was never proven as the guilty party. Was it my fault that all those ornaments fell off the tree, maybe they weren’t hung properly. Oliver used to lie under the tree like he was a present. Have a great day Sammy.

Sammy, we cannot believe that your peeps have all the decorating done. We are hoping our mom finishes by the end of the upcoming week. She is putting up the last of the garland and lights outside today. We have trees up with lights on them, but not even one ornament yet. And no gifts wrapped, and no cards sent (e- or snail mail). We have such a slacker for a mom. We have no idea what she has been doing. And we hear that she and Dad are planning on going to the movies this afternoon. Pffft!
