It went from 80 to freezing within a DAY! Not kidding. The pooches are warm though! I laughed yesterday while Carrie and I took the girls to the Mall Stacy was at home putting up Christmas and setting the tree in the stand and of course the dogs were in and out with him. One would come in, he'd take their coat off, then want to go out and he'd put it back on. Just like having two more young un's to run after! Here is Reilly in his sherpa coat which has kept him warm as toast for the past few years.

I just bought Holly this fur hooded parka yesterday. Isn't she sweet in it!!! Yes I know the lighting sucks. I'm no photographer as you well know.

A better shot of my little pretty girl in her parka. She didn't mind it at all. Even Reilly who is a major PITA about getting dressed doesn't mind his coat because it does keep him warm and they both HATE to be cold!

Back to our Christmas Tree we went to the local farmers market and got our tree yesterday. Because of the drought conditions we paid $15 more than we did last year but we will always have a live tree. Tradition. I'm all about tradition! Hope you all had a great long week-end. I did. I didn't get to visit any blogs but i'll try to get caught up today and tomorrow.

Chickie sent me an awesome box from The Little Black Box chock full of good smelling lotions,scrubs,soaps and tarts and maybe some things I haven't investigated fully yet! I confess i've already opened it and used some things so I have no picture of it in it's pristine new condition. I'm sorry. I HIGHLY recommend you check out the site and order one. Thank you Chickie for thinking of me at a time when I really needed it! You rock girlfriend. Not only are you a kick-ass wife, step-mother and pet-mamma but you are funny, gorgeous and have a warped sense of humor.I heart you my sweet friend!
Another big thank you to Daisy and Manblogger for the sweet friendship card they sent me. I am so thankful I met this wonderful pair through my blog!
