Our New Motto

We are getting closer and closer to Christmas.  Me and Stanley keep sniffing our stockings.  There are lots of good smells in them but they are hanging too high for us to get into them.

My stocking is the one on the left with the paws.

So we just keep playing to pass the time until Santa Paws comes with new toys and treats.  The situation is getting kind of desperate because Dr. Destruction Stanley has destroyed most of our toys!  The other day another package was delivered to our home but it was for mom.

What??  The package is NOT for us??  But I'm so cute!

It was from our Aunt Ellen.  She lives in southern California and is mom's BFF.  "What could this be" she wondered aloud.    So she opened it, took something out, and set it on the couch.  

Stanley took a closer look.

 Mom said it is our new motto and some of the best advice she's heard in a long time.  Thank you Auntie Ellen!

 Keeping Calm and Barking On . . .

For once I'm bigger than Stanley!
