'TIS THE SEASON TO BE JOLLY!

I don't know how Thanksgiving flew past us, but it did! Well, in our family, we had three birthdays to celebrate in November, plus Thanksgiving. Also, our daughter and SIL left us to head back to AZ in their RV. We had a celebratory sendoff dinner for them as well. So, now we're already in the Christmas season, one of my favorite times of the year. This month, you're going to see lots of Christmas doxies, so buckle up and enjoy the view!

Merry Christmas, doxie lovers! I pray you will have a wonderful season and many blessings with your loved ones!

CHRISTMAS DOXIE HUMOR

MERRY CHRISTMAS, DOXIE LOVERS!

And never forget . . .

CHRISTMAS SHOPPING

We did some Christmas shopping today.  Remind me next year to order everything online!

Some stores literally looked like a bomb had gone off in there since everything was scrambled up so much.  And I didn't detect very many happy faces, either.  Most of the shoppers I saw just looked grimly determined to "git 'er done."

Why did I wait so long to shop?  I've been very busy the past few months getting two books released.  In fact, I've sent the paperback manuscript of Book 4, A DACHSHUND'S TRIBUTE, to be published, and it will probably come out next week.  WHEW!

Back to Christmas shopping:  nobody likes to give presents at Christmas more than I do!  However, I know it is not about giving and receiving gifts, although that is fine.  It is about the ultimate gift to mankind from God: His Son, Jesus Christ.  We are celebrating His birth.  In our family, we put that first, so everything else then falls into its rightful place.

For those who can't or won't say Merry Christmas, it is a shame.  God loves us so much, so I am emphasizing the positives of this lovely season.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

CHRISTMAS DOXIE #22: "THRILLED" DOXIE . . . NOT!

 

 

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR, DOXIE LOVERS!  See you "next year"!

 

 

 



CHRISTMAS DOXIE #15: I AM DACHSHUND!

This beautiful doxie is the same one who graces the cover of I AM DACHSHUND, Book 2 of THE DACHSHUND ESCAPADES.  He looks mighty festive, doesn't he?

Happy Saturday and Merry Christmas, doxie lovers!

CHRISTMAS DOXIE #5: "I MIGHT WEAR HOLLY, BUT I'M FAR FROM JOLLY!"

I don't personally know this cute red doxie, but he/she does not look very joyful!  Oh, the dawg is posing nicely, but methinks that the holly collar is not to this dachshund's liking. 

Other captions that fit this Christmas doxie:

"I'll even wear this dumb collar for a treat!"

"If you like it so much, why don't YOU wear it??"

"Why didn't you make one of the cats or one of the children wear it?"

"Do you REALLY think I don't realize how ridiculous this looks?"

"Just wait until I get my teeth into this collar . . . how'd you like some red and green confetti?"


MERRY CHRISTMAS!
