For me, nothing says holiday fun like puppies and dogs- and the more the merrier!
Here is a clip of the biggest collection of pups you will ever see (my cousin’s pup is in this clip ) – I mean WOW! All that’s missing is some snow!
And of course it wouldn’t be Christmas without my boy, Hamish Macbeth ( his Holiday pics follow )
So look close and prepare to have your winter heart warmed up- for me it wouldn’t be that time of the year without my dog. Enjoy!
Among this over flowing basket of puppies is my cousin’s dog, Xavier.
(YouTube video of the pack of beauties and baby Xavier:)
1. Xavier shows up first on 0:42 in the middle of the screen.
2. Coming down the hill at 3:49…
3. At the water hole, to the right, at 6:40
4. And sitting on his favorite rock at 8:09.
Can you spot the 120lb nine month old puppy in this happy holiday snap?
Two years ago my Hamish was just a puppy- so in the spirit of the holidays my nieces wrapped him in gift paper and he kept it on until the tape warmed up and it all fell off.
Hamish and Pualani Christmas 2014
Here is a picture of Hamish from Thanksgiving 2016- minus the wrapping paper!
Hamish might be a bit big to wrap up and Xavier is most definitely to big- but because of these two special guys, there is going to be some fun and love around our homes this Christmas.
The story some will tell are going to be brutal, some will tell a story about life of ease and comfort others will talk about a life that went on for a long time and others will say they had hardly had time to find their story at all.
Of all the stories we can tell, the story our bones will tell will never be equaled by any writer no matter how talented or glib or word perfect they may be.
That’s why I love to see things covered with snow- the world turns into a city of bones and each street has a story to tell.
It’s an exciting time for me.
Today I am leaving this video to show you this world as it comes into being- enjoy the story.
