Imagine being in the audience on one of Ellen’s Twelve Days of Christmas – just think of all the Super Surprises you’d get and then think of being transported to Casa de Canterbury for The Red Man’s Christmas…just hear those sleigh bells jing-a-ling, ring ring ring-a-ling now…
For starters, Santa is a Gamecock
But let’s not hold that against him because he’s already sent us lots of presents and we opened them tonight just for the hell of it. So Merry Christmas to us!
Babies, babies Everywhere!!
Spike steals the babies, and that irritates moi
Touch the Hedgehog and you die
Tennis Ball Obsessed Chelsea likes the bird frisbee
I could care less about that one
Uh, oh. Big Dogs Rumble
Spike wins
He wasn’t satisfied until he had ALL the babies
Whatever.
Well Amigos, time to lay my weary head on my soft pillow after all this Christmas excitement tonight. The Red Man is in slumber mode and dreaming of a white Christmas just like the ones he used to not know. Heh, heh.
Well, I never. First he gets all the Christmas babies…
and now he has my Pillow Position.
It’s a world gone mad.
Oh Spike, you meanie! Christmas has gone to your head 😉 Never mind Red Man, he’ll probably forget about them all tomorrow.

Yes, there was a suspicious scene this a.m. with white snow in the living room – only it wasn’t snow…it was the stuffing from the new hedgehog. I swear you can’t grab a few winks in this house without danger lurking while you sleep. That Spike. We should’ve left him in Texas. 🙂

Gee whiz! That Spike is the Baby Jesus thief!! Has to be, Red. I mean, he’s a compulsive baby thief. Ma says he’s not old enough, that Jesus went missing before Spike was born, but I think that just substantiates the witchcraft charge. Wow, and he’s got the balls (or not) to steal your pillow. Wow and wow!!!
Amen!

Aha, very interesting theory that Spike stold the missing Baby Jesus – although your Ma does have a point about the crime timeline. Just a little ahead of his time, but your Red Man wouldn’t put it past him these days. The Pillow Incident was appalling. Simply appalling.
There is no possibility at all that Cassie P will have coal in her stocking. Your Ma is WAY too fond of her to rat her out to Santa this year. Hah. 🙂
Merry Christmas, my sweet Poppy,
And may all your dreams come true.
The Red Man

Red Man, I feel your pain. Cassie Potatoes after only 4 months has laid claim to the pillows. Now I never wanted to sleep on them, preferring the foot of the bed were I cause Ma nightly leg cramps then growl when she pushes me, but it’s a matter of pride. 😀

Oh, Miss Poppy Seed, the things we have to endure when someone NEW disturbs our equilibrium – ridiculous. 🙂 Sounds like you’ll make out like a bandit on this one if your Ma pushes you out of the bed anyway. It’s the principle of the thing, though. No respect.

Trev, you are a lucky fellow to have a toy chest! Unfortunately, the Big Dogs have managed to drag all of our new toys out from their unsecure open basket and every day we have our own version of snow on the INSIDE as they have systematically destroyed the new babies – even my prized hedgehog that squeaked like yours, I might add. Big Dogs have no class. Sigh.
Oh well, Happy Holidays to you and yours and hope the New Year is a great one for you!
