Wow I can't believe how long it's been since my Mom typed a diary entry for me. Things have been busy for her I guess.

We found a home for one of the kitties. Someone who works with Mom took Missy, a beautiful gray tiger. She was pretty shy at first and hid all the time. But the person was smart and patient enough to know she just needed time to settle in. She had only known life on the street and then life with me and Mom. She has finally settled in and become quite affectionate.

We took a road trip at Thanksgiving to meet my Aunt Cheryl and her family for lunch. I got two new stuffie/squeaky toys from my Aunt Cheryl - a hamburger and a dolphin. They squeak just right!!!

We went to Williamsburg, VA in December. We drove down and my Aunt Cheryl drove up. On Saturday we went to Colonial Williamsburg. Holly and Max from Adventure Dogs were there too. We had a great time!!! Dogs can't go into houses and shops but otherwise it is very dog friendly there. Everyone made such a fuss over us. We are just so cute and friendly!!! There was a Humane Society that was selling all sorts of stuff to benefit homeless animals. We got some yummy food and I got a very cool Christmas bandana. My Mom also put a bow on their tree in honor of me, our horse Half Moon Bay and Molly Bunny.

Holly and Max had to go home on Sunday. Me and Mom and Aunt Cheryl stayed til Tuesday. We visited several wineries. Of course!!! We drove up the Chesapeake Bay and I got to walk on the beach. That was great fun. We saw some really pretty Christmas light exhibits in Newport News and on the boardwalk at VA Beach. You actually get to drive down the boardwalk. We walked out on the beach but I wasn't too sure about the noise from the waves. And it was dark!!! Of course I got to share lots of picnics and leftovers and got lots of treats. And our room had TWO beds!!!

The next week Mom was busy with her Santas for the Homeless thing. People get food, clothes and toiletries together, meet on Christmas Eve and put everything into gift bags and hand them out.

Our best friend Jerry had to go into the hospital just before Christmas. He is doing very well. Knock wood!!! But please send him healing thoughts. Mom is thinking of disguising me as a Therapy Dog so I can visit. I am sure I could cheer everyone up and I am VERY well behaved.

Everything was so hectic at Christmas that we haven't yet met up with my Aunt Cheryl and her family. We will be doing that next weekend. I can't wait as I know she has at least two more presents for me!!! And I love a roadtrip!

It has been VERY cold here in DC. Mom has been putting out lots of food for the stray and ferals and giving them warm water morning and night. She has to go out to the stable and make up beet pulp mashes for my horse sister Half Moon Bay and give her hot water too.

I hope you are all warm and happy!!!
