On Our Way!

12-22-12-On-our-way!
 
Kaitlin sent the above picture of Sammy from her iPhone yesterday morning. The subject was “On our way!” Yes! That’s the sort of message that puts a smile on my face.

I was ready for them when they arrived this evening:
 
12-26-12-Sammy,-Montana-and-Toys-1
 
The granddogs seemed to like the presents:
 
12-26-12-Sammy,-Montana-and-Toys-2
 
12-26-12-Sammy,-Montana-and-Toys-10
 
The toys are a bit worse for wear, but the puppies had a good time:
 
12-26-12-Sammy,-Montana-and-Toys-18
 
They won’t be leaving until Thursday morning, so presumably the toys will last that long. :D

Merry Christmas, everyone!

Thanks to Rummuser, Evan, Nick, tammy, bikehikebabe, Cathy and Dixie for commenting on last week’s post.

I have been receiving ominous I am on my way messages from the young crowd about to descend on my doorstep tomorrow for some fun and frolic. To spend time with them, I finished what I was expected to do, cook a mutton dish for them, today itself and am bushed.

Merry Christmas to you and your family to Jean.

The dogs seem to be very happy with their toys. Though I notice they’re steering well clear of the crocodile….

Rummuser,
I hope you have a wonderful time too! Your comment about cooking reminds me of a birthday card I gave to my husband once. On the front it said, “For your birthday I was going to cook you a gourmet, 7-course dinner.” On the inside it said, “Then I remembered, I don’t cook!”

bikehikebabe,
Thank you. :)

Nick,
That’s a cute idea, but I’m afraid Montana is not afraid of the crocodile. This is a video my daughter took in May, 2011: http://www.flickr.com/photos/8185675@N07/5720434649/
Montana was a rescue dog and was being treated for heartworm so she wasn’t supposed to run or get too exuberant. Yeah, sure. Lot’s of luck with that.

tammy,
I agree about granddogs. Hope you have a great Christmas too!

Evan,
Yes, we always do when they come. Hope the season brings some joy to you too.

the marine’s black lab had heart worm once too and trying to get her to stay calm . . . well . . . i guess they get well in spite of it! ’cause it’s like trying to stop a freight train. LOL.

tammy,
She still runs with joy. She was really tearing around up on the land today. Sometimes she does a “tornado” and runs around in circles. She’s one happy puppy who knows how to have fun. And she can also be quiet and well behaved. She’s a love, and so is Sammy, old Sammy. He’s ten years old this month and is a lot slower than he used to be. As are we all!
