Merry Day After Christmas!!!

We didn't get a chance to wish any of our furiends a Merry Christmas yesterday as we were not home yesterday but traveled to see family.  We hope all of our furiends and their families had a wonderful Christmas. 

So, when we got up yesterday we found these under the tree!!

 We must have been very good this year!  Look at all the presents that Santa Paws left!!

 "Hey mom, can we play with our new toys now??

Ellie just loves this little pink piggy...

Brutus checked it out too...

Brutus really enjoyed this Dr. Seuss stuffy (he loves the long faux fur)

I love this stuffy of the Grinch's dog Max

I wasn't a big fan of the pink pig.

After we played with our new toys for a little bit, we got loaded in the car to head to Grandma and Grandpa's!!

Ellie was put into confinement while everyone ate.  She went to sleep shortly after this picture was taken.

After dinner, we all asked mom politely if Ellie could come out and play :)

Here she is playing with Uncle B.

And, check out this beautiful Christmas dress that Aunt Punchy made for Ellie!!  Wait...Ellie wants to say something.  Hi evwyone!!  I want to say a big TANK U to Aunty Punchy for my pretty dress.  I gots so much attention, it is just the best thing ever!!  Her etsy shop is here in case anyone is interested in a pretty dress of their own.

  

Big brudder Brutus was cuddling with dad...

I took a nap on my Aunty L's lap... 

I tink big brudder Yoda might have been a bit jealous of the attention I was gettin'

Here I am wit Mom...

Yoda found a comfy seat on the couch...

Otay, I will turn tings back over to my brudder Yoda...

I'm back.  Just a couple more things for this post.  We are super excited because both mom & dad are off on vacation this week!!  YAY!!  Hopefully this means we will have plenty of time to do a few posts this week and to also get around to visit and comment on the blogs.

What's in a name.....

Hey everyone!!  Mom was busy finishing up a project for one of her classes last week so we didn't get to do much blogging.  We did stop by and read blogs, but didn't have time to make many comments.

Mom and dad did have time to decide on a name for our new little sister.....

....Ellie!!

She does alot of sleeping - here she is trying to help mom with her project for school.  I am there helping too :)

Somehow she ended up on the couch next to me.  What's a pug to do but continue napping!

Chilling next to dad.

Mom was taking a break from baking cookies this weekend so several of us piled on!!

She makes a halfway decent back warmer...

Mom just loves Ellie's little butt wrinkles.

Brutus says I make a good blanket too.

So mom finished her project and turned it in on Friday.  She is now done with classes until the Spring semester starts on 1/10/11.

This weekend mom was busy making Christmas cookies.  Can you believe she didn't share any with us!!  Don't these all look delicious!!

Butterscotch Cookies

Spritz Cookies

Iced Maple Cookies

Chocolate Chip Cookies

Oatmeal Raisin Cookies

Candy Bar Cookies

Mexican Wedding Cakes

No Bake Cookies

We are so excited for Christmas this week!!  We can't wait for Santa Paws to come - we have been good pugs this year so we are sure we are going to get lots of presents.  We hope that all of our furiends get lots of presents too!
