As we welcome in 2008, I would like to thank ya’ll for checking out our blog. 2007 came with many emotional challenges (old doors closing, new doors opening) and with the help of all ya’ll, I was able to prevail. Thank you for your kindness, lending of an ear, emails of advise and courage, sharing tears and most of all sharing laughs.
Grandmama and Grandpa have a awesome back yard and we ran and played all day.
We took a lil break to take some pics.
Then it was time for a rare family picture.
We finally got to meet momma's brother, our Uncle Landie. Since we were visiting, Landie made an extra effort to stop by. He works odd hours and it has been over two years since momma last saw him.
Check out Grandpa and our cousin Big Mama Sassy relaxing.
We had a great time visiting Grandmama and Grandpa and meeting our Uncle. It was a cool way for sure to complete 2007.
And Happy Anniversary! Can you believe it's been one year to the day that daddy and momma drove to Oregon where we were born, picked us up and took us home. This makes Christmas Eve that more special.
The weather here in Cali this Christmas Eve is absolutely gorgeous...low 70's, compared to last Christmas Eve in Oregon, low 40's (see pic below...how cute we looked and daddy all bundled up).
Today we hung out near the beach, got some Java and visited with some of our friends on Del Mar Street. 
We wish everyone a Merry Christmas.
Trixie pretending to be Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer. "You got me fooled."
OoRah trying on the antlers.
Uh oh...Trixie proceeds to remove the antlers off of OoRah. Reckon the house is only big enough for one reindeer.
"Trixie is that you under that Santa hat?"
Momma looks like one of Santa's helpers.
Patiently waiting for Santa Clause. Looks like Trixie is actually smiling...she is besides herself waiting for Santa. OoRah of course looks sexy in his Christmas loin clothe. 
This lil cutie is all decked out in holiday cheer.
A face only a mum and of course Santa could love.
Santa finally arrived...whose been naughty and whose been nice?
Want to give a "bark" out to Cooper the Great Dane who is recovering from knee surgery. "Get well soon Cooper!"
Trixie of course got all the love...such a love bug. 
Take your pick Elke! I'm thinking the buff one in the white t-shirt will do ya just fine.
