Christmas lights and candy canes

[snagged in outlet 3]

My youngest turned 15 last year and I was getting out all the stuff.

She walks over and says "If you don't want to do that anymore you don't have to.  Me and mom will decorate the unside" 

I hugged her and said you can have whatever you want for Xmas and I almost started crying.

Got her a car.

BTW, I have a huge mess of lights and stuff in my basement if anyone wants it.

Second best are dogs.

Hard not to do everything you can for a creature that exists solely to love someone, no matter their faults.

Couldn't agree more with both statements, except you gotta put cats in there, too. They love you just like dogs; they're just a little more coy about showing it sometimes.

Here are 3 of our 6, all fulltime indoors. Yeah, it's a zoo sometimes.

Totally agree on both jo.  I have a few furry friends at home, 2 jack russels and a rescued German Shepard.  The 3 of them r white.

Nice Joe. I have given that Giant Pooch lots of goodies in the mornings that he has greeted me. He's a big baby once he knows your cool. Always felt safe leaving my truck in the parking lot. I will miss him being there.

King's got a clean bill of health, a microchip, and all of his vaccinations.

Oh - and a new little brother at his new forever home 

God is good, Ozark Family!

Hey Champ- King's going to have his hands full a lot more than when he was playing with my Golden Retrievers this past week. That Mastiff / Pyrenees mix in the picture is almost as tall as King - only "Shiner" is just 8 months old haha!

My wish this year is for all to adopt pets in the shelters and not go to puppy farms. All my pets have been abandoned. That pet commercial about those critters being abused and abandoned tears me up. Some people should not be allowed to have kids nor pets. Thank for taking the dog home. Come on folks give Gods critters a good Christmas.

Couldn't agree more, Tanderson. All six of our cats are rescues.
