Merry Christmas Every Doggy (and person, and kitties and other animals too!)

Boomer: Mom, why on God's green earth haven't you posted anything?

Mom: Well Boom, we have been really busy with work, knitting, visiting family, etc...

Boomer: blah blah blah... When are you going to put us pooches above everything?

Mom: We do honey, just look at our checking account! All of our money goes to vet bills, toys, food, treats, etc... You all are very high maintenance!


Boomer: Listen, just because Snickers and I ate the Duraflame logs last week and Nicks had to go to emergency doesn't mean we are "high maintenance".


Mom: Okay Boomer, you go on thinking that.


Boomer: Thank you mom, I will

Mom has been one busy knitter lately so I will post some of her projects:

This is Christmas scarf is for Shelby, Anniebelle not included:























Then she made some sockies for her mother-in-law for Christmas:























Now she's working on a pair of sockies for herself:






























And finally, here is a picture of the Entrelac shawl she knitted a while back:






























On a very sad note, mom heard a couple of weeks ago that Simon and Scarlett went to the Rainbow Bridge and Annie, and mom and the rest of us are most crushed. But with the sadness a blessing in Tommy has come about and I'm sure that Shelly will love her new little brother just as much as she loved Simon and Scarlett.

Turbo kitty is still hanging in there - he's one tough little guy! Mom and dad are keeping him as comfortable as possible, and he's taking full advantage of it.


And lastly, a picture of me:











Yah, it's a small picture but only you couldn't handle my gorgeousness if the pic were any bigger.


Merry Christmas and Happy New Year everyone!!!!

Welcome back doggies! So when is your mom gonna knit you guys a sweater?!

Pop wants to thank your mom for the email she sent him. He's been keeping it in his inbox and reads it often. Two nights ago he had the best dream. Simon was a wee-puppy and Pop was hugging him and Simon's ice cold and wet nose was pressed against his neck. He said it was as real as it could get! :-)

Merry Christmas!
Shelly & Tommy
