More happened than what the video and photos say, but I think you’ll be happy with this much.

We saw lights in Middle Village.

Mama Dawg and I posed in silly hats.

Dawg posed for the camera while SoCo/Yin wanted to go leap on…

I stretched out on the couch so the kittens would lie down in my lap… and they did!

We wrapped presents and put them in a laundry basket…

…while CoCo/Yang watched from behind Santa.
Then we went to see Christmas lights at Pitkin Avenue. In case you didn’t hear what I whispered, I SAID: “it’s fucking cold.” :grins:
Holiday greetings from 27 degrees F!!!!
More photos of the wonderland are here. Enjoy!


Look at you all Christmassy!!! Yay!
I used to visit that house every year since I was a wee lass… in fact I passed that house everyday on the way to work (used to live in Richmond Hill till July). I just wanted to thank you for posting pics of that house… I was always amazed by the village in the garage with the little stream going thru it. I live in NC now and have been homesick because of the holidays. Thanks Poppy!!! You helped bring ‘home’ to a girl 535 miles away! Merry Xmas!
Nice lights. I like the laundry-basket-gift tradition … it cuts down on the mess of having to put up a tree.
It’s been f*cking cold here too. The high today is going to be 13F.
So adorable! I’m glad you had a good weekend even if it wasn’t what you had planned—life is funny like that.
We are going to ride around and look at lights tomorrow.
Looks fun! We’re going to look at lights this week.
Doesn’t sound like too bad of a trade off. Look how cute you all are… Poppy, Dawg, Mama Dawg and the kittehs. I want to squeeze all of you!
ok, momma dawg is adorable.
and that last photo of you and dawg is frame worthy. just christmas perfect!
it is brrr chilly (10 degrees) here in the burgh and we don’t have a flake of snow. driving me crazy and negatively impacting my christmas mood. love that you guys have such pretty snow.
merry christmas.
See! You didn’t have to go to VT to be cold!
We got your fuckin’ freezin’ right here!
Awesome pics. And cats like laps… all of them. and no matter what age.
27? That is downright balmy! It was 5 below here yesterday!
Too bad you didn’t get to go to Vermont. I’m glad you had a wonderful weekend anyway. It was 9 degrees in Tennessee this morning. Where is global warming when you need it?
…. Damn, that’s colorful.
Great photos. Have yourself a Merry, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Stay warm.
SO beautiful!! I wish I was there with you! And you have snow too. We’re going to have a rainy Christmas here….bleh. Merry Christmas to you and Dawg! *hug*
