To Grandma's House I Go.....

I'm so excited! I'm off to grandma's house for a few days. Mommy's going back to her home state of Arkansas over Christmas. I'd be very sad that mommy's leaving me but I LOVE going to grandma's! She gives me tons of treats and holds me on her lap all of the time! Mommy gets mad at grandma when she picks me up from her house though. She says grandma shouldn't feed me from the table and that I feel heavier and look fatter than I should. What?!? I look FAT??? I call that extra padding through the cold, winter months! Here I come grandma! Get my treats ready! This is a picture of grandma and me! She's the best!

I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas! I'll be back after I get home from grandma's house!

I'm so proud of my mom!

I have to brag on my mom a little bit! She's done so many nice things for the community. She loves to help people and she tries to make a difference in small ways. This fall she donated school supplies to local schools to help kids who don't have enough money to buy them themselves. She and daddy organized a neighborhood food drive to donate to the Salvation Army in time for Thanksgiving and then they donated a gift for a family from church who don't have money for Christmas. Now she just purchased toys for the kindergarten and first grade classes at one of Oshkosh's most needy schools. Mommy's company, Coldwell Banker The Real Estate Group, 'adopted' a family who needed basic things for their family like jackets, cleaning supplies and clothes. That family will have a great Christmas this year thanks to mommy and everyone else at Coldwell Banker The Real Estate Group who helped them out.

My mom and dad are really grateful for all they have and want to give back to others. My mom has taught me that it's good to give during the holidays but it's also good to help others all year round.

Okay, I'm done bragging now. Maybe my mom will give me an extra treat for writing this!

I think my mom is crazy!

My mom has really lost it! She was out showing houses all morning. Doesn't she know that it was 7 below??? She HATES cold weather! What was she thinking?!?! I would rather hold my bladder all day than go outside to 'do my business'.....ugh! The only reason I stepped my paws outside is because I get Scooby Snacks for 'doing my business' and I LOVE Scooby Snacks! Mommy tried to put a sweater on me once and I almost took her hand off. I do not like being dressed up! I'm cute enough as it is.....I don't need stupid clothes.
Mommy spent the rest of the day working on her new advertising campaign that kicks off in January. I can't wait until she's done....that's all she's been doing lately. I know she's excited though. I love my mommy even if she was a bit crazy today for going out in this weather!

I'm Pooped!

I'm so exhausted! Mommy and Daddy had a Christmas party last night for people mommy works with. Mommy baked cookies all day for the party and didn't give me one bite! I'm secretly glad she didn't because I would have probably gotten sick from the way mommy cooks! Don't tell her I said that. Daddy gave me some treats off his plate though....I love my dad!
Mommy and Daddy had to work all day so I finally got some sleep! If I don't get my beauty rest I feel like taking someone's head off. Daddy said I'm a lot like mommy. I don't think mommy's supposed to know that either.
Well I better get going....I hear the garage door opening. I think mommy's home from work!
