Family Day

Yesterday was one of those fun family days you dream about as a pup when all the people are seeing if they want to take you home and you are wondering what your new family will be like. All the trips and stuff are nice but so are the days when we are all just hanging out around the house getting ready for the holidays. It is actually cold here so it feels like Christmas is coming(even though dad is still wearing shorts outside!). Dad was working on hanging Christmas lights on the bushes and house, mom was inside working on Christmas cards and baking cookies. I went back and forth between helping dad with the lights and hoping some of the cookie batter would fall on the floor for me. The Christmas tree lights were on, candles were burning and football was on. Perfect!

Our first Christmas gift, the KSU rock from dad's parents. K-State football is heading to the Texas bowl in Houston to play Rutgers. We would love to go but we will be back up in Kansas for the holidays.
Yes, we have a small Christmas tree with very few ordaments but it is fun getting new stuff and see our collection grow every year. Mom could probably tell you where she got every single ordament and Christmas decoration. And when we actually spend a Christmas at our house we will get a real bigger tree!
