Twas the Night Before Christmas

Well, It's Christmas Eve, and Maddux and I are anxiously awaiting the arrival of Santa Paws. It's been a whirl wind of activity since last Wednesday. Maddux and I woke up early thinking we would be driving to Mamaw and Papaw's house, but unfortunately, we had to make a stop at the groomer first. It wasn't too bad I guess...Ms. Angie gave us both a new toy for Christmas. I, of course, got a Christmas bow (which I hate having in my hair) and Maddux got a Christmas bandanna. Here are few pictures that Mommy took in the car on the way to Knoxville. Daddy kept telling her she was going to blind him with the flash while he was driving. As you can guess, she completely ignored him and took the pictures anyway.

You'll notice in the pictures that Maddux is helping Daddy drive, and I'm sacked out in Mommy's lap. From the angle she took the picture of me, I look like I have big pointy elf ears. What's up with that!?

We finally got to Mamaw and Papaw's house, and the first thing I did, after I went to potty of course, is to get under Mamaw's tree and check out all the presents.

Maddux got under there, too.

The next morning my hair was a mess so Mommy took by bow out, and my hair was sticking up everywhere. Papaw walked by and said it looked like I stuck my paw in a light socket. It may be hard to tell in the picture, but I did have a severe case of bed head.

Auntie Jamie came over that night to eat dinner with us, and here's a picture of her playing with us on the bed.

Mommy even takes pictures of us when we are asleep. I'm sure Maddux is dreaming of ways to get rid of me, and my picture is NOT of my most flattering side.

On Saturday, Mommy, Daddy, Nana, Mamaw, and Papaw went to see a movie and Nana came over to see us afterwards.

Here's a picture of Sassy. She's so cute!

Sassy has this great big bean bag, and I love to play on it. Mommy snapped my picture while I was rolling around on it. You'll notice that I have my "Santa Baby" shirt on. I'm trying to score a few brownie points with the big guy since my behavior has been a little suspect at times (it's Sunday and I only have a couple more days!). Maybe he'll bring me my very own bean bag.

Mommy got a picture of Maddux climbing on Daddy. He loves to do that...I think he's trying to get away from me. :)

Here's a picture of Auntie Jamie with Sassy in front of the tree.

It's already been an action packed Sunday, and we are pooped.

But, we still have one more stop to make. We are headed over to Nana's house to have an early Christmas with Uncle Bryon, Auntie Tina, and Cousin Sam. Little Sam is ready for Christmas. He crawled right into the room with Nana's tree and picked out his presents.

Here's a good picture of Nana and Sam.

Sam had a great time playing with me and Maddux. He kept calling us something that sounded like "car". He's so funny! Sam even let Maddux give him kisses.

Here are some pictures of Sam opening his gifts with some help from Uncle Bryon and Mommy.

We even managed to get a picture with the WHOLE family. It took Daddy several minutes to figure out how to work the timer on our camera, but Auntie Tina didn't seem to have any trouble. I guess it's true...girls ARE smarter than boys.

Here are some pictures that we took today on Christmas Eve.

Maddux and I can't wait until tomorrow to find out what Santa Paws brought us. We hope everyone has a safe and happy holiday!

Merry Christmas!

Love,
Maddux and Bella
