December 18, 2013

Finally...


We finally got the tree put up.  I made sure that it was sitting straight in the holder.  For some reason, the tall guy likes to put lights and all sorts of bobbily-bits on the tree.  He says it makes it look nice.  Personally (or should that be doggone-ally), I thought it looked just fine the way it was.  But evidently my opinion isn't worth much around here.

You may notice that I am not wearing my happy face.  You may also notice that there are no presents under the tree.  You may wonder if those two things are related.

I was told that Sanity Clause brings all the gifts to all the good boys next week and we would just have to wait and see IF, er... WHAT presents would be under the tree for me.

I would just sit here and wait but what you can't see in the picture is the fence that the tall guy put up to keep me out of the room with the tree when he is not here.  For some reason, he thinks I might decide to play with some of the bobbily-bits on the tree.

I think he knows me too well!

  4. Dear Jack,

    Your tree is most beautiful, but, oh my goodness, whatever would give the tall guy the idea that you would entertain yourself by playing with the bobbily-bits on the tree????? LOL

    Too bad about the fence, but it will all be worth it when you wake up Christmas morning and find all the cool and fun presents under the tree with your name on them.

    Enjoy your beautiful tree and your first Christmas in your gorgeous new home!!

    Your friend,
    Nancy

  11. That is a very nice tree, the TG just wants to keep you from have any fun baseball playoffs with those nice bobbily-bits and your tail. You can still hit a few when he let's you in there! hehehehe

  13. We have bells hung on the lowest limbs of our tree to sound a warning if someone gets too close. We have a 13 week old lab puppy, plus his mom, and a 113 pound yellow lab too. Shadow (the puppy) like to lay under the tree, and we have given up on putting a tree skirt under it because he thinks it is for him to pull off and sleep on. He unwrapped the first present we put under there so we won't get to do that until Christmas Eve. And don't feel bad, we have a fence too so that he can't get in there without human supervision!
