Merry Christmas!

Today was very busy! I woke up VERY early, opened presents, went to my Grandma's house for MORE presents and brunch, and went home, and my friend came over. And THEN we went to my OTHER Grandma's house for even MORE presents and dinner. And I'm spending the night!

So as you know, I'm done with the Nutcracker Ballet. It ended on Sunday the 16th. We had a huge cast party with a DJ and everything! But anyhow, I must go now.

But before I go..

Merry Christmas and Happy new year! Can you believe it's going to be 2008?

BUSY BUSY BUSY

This time of year is VERY BUSY for me! In September, I auditioned for the Nutcracker Ballet, so I have a part in the show.
Not exactly what you'd call a small part, either. I'm in the party scene, in the beginning of the show, for those of you who have seen the Nutcracker before.
This morning was our first performance! Plus rehearsals... Ugh. And lots of dance class, an art class, and of course, the search of CHRISTMAS GIFTS.
So, obviously, I have not had enough time to come here, even on the weekends. Yep, I had rehearsal. Hah!

turkey day!

A lot of common thanksgiving foods are Turkey, cranberry sauce, etc. My family also does Brussell sprouts. Yum! :-) In melted chese and various herbs, OF COURSE.
I do however like brussell sprouts anyhow. But you probably don't want to hear about my UNpickiness.

But back to the feast of the month -- YUM!! But let's face it, we almost always have leftovers, that MUST be eaten sometime, right?

But it seems like as soon as it's here, it's gone! But let me tell ya, Christmas is much worse in that case.

Today's vet Appointment

Today we went to the vet for my dogs to get checked out, blah blah.... but first of all, my sister and I are allowed to go behind the desk over there sometimes, and we did today. The best part was that there were a new batch of four Toy Poodle Puppies!!! One we called "Moustache". He is a Chocolate brown with grey paws and a grey "moustache" and grey "eyebrows". He is very cute.

Then there were two Ashy blondes. One tooted a lot. I wasn't very surprised scince he was the chub of the bunch... and then the other was kind of the runt. Same color, but LOTS of difference. And the last was a Golden grey-ish color. He was the hyper one.

All four were very cute! "Moustache" loved hangin' out on my shoulder. At one point, I had one blonde in one hand, the other blonde in the other, "moustache" on my left foot and the Golden grey on my knee. (I was sitting down, of course)

Yah. Fun day. Now my big black dog seems HUGE compared to the pups about the size of a Grande Starbucks Cup!

Halloween

Ye All Hallows Eve has passed; is here no longer; to be back another day. Not to mention all of the leftover candy...
The costumes have no use any longer, as they sit in the back of the closet or get thrown away.
The candy gets eaten, one by one.. until there are no more sweet treats until the next year.

The teen T.P.-ers have come and past, and the children who have Silly string wars put the cans away. They'll have to wait for April Fool's Day.

The Hamster isn't Going Anywhere

There she is. In her three-story wired cage with fluffy paper bedding. And then there's the red wheel. After running for about five minutes, she pokes her little head out... "Oops, gotta go a little further..." And just keeps on running. I think she thinks that she is going somewhere. "Hmm... This looks familiar. Gotta keep going!" I think she is obsessed.

Right now, she is gnawing on the wall of her cage. Very big cage. The first "floor" has fluffy bedding, a wooden block for sleeping in, a rope ball, her "car" (also known as the red wheel), a large supply of food and water, and a hanging bell and chew blocks.

The second "floor" is completed with A rope chew ball, hanging wooden chew toys, a wooden chew thingy, a paper tube and a 'beautiful' rope floor mat. The third "floor" has a rope floor mat and a "food hut", completed with a straw roof and delicious walls.

Spoiled little Hamster, huh.
