Fa la la

Mac is exhausted after decorating the tree...took a lot of out of the poor guy!

Ty putting the finishing touches on the tree--the star on top! And Mac, watching just like a good little boy should! 

Mac helped me to put up his ornament, which was a gift last year from his best friend Jen, who takes Mac to the dog park a couple days a week!  

Its Santa...wait, no...it's just Mac!!!

Mac has decided to follow the scarf trend that we have been seeing so much of lately.  He really pulls it off well.

2008 marks Christmas #2 for us in our own house in Boston.  It really snuck up on both of us this year!  After two weeks of saying that we were going to get a tree, we finally have one.  We woke up on Sunday to snow.  It was the perfect day to go to the farm and get a tree.  The farm? Yes, the farm.  Sasha & Brooke have a good friend Ryan who works on a farm near Boston, so we set out yesterday for the farm to pick out our perfect tree.  It was a little chilly, but so much fun to see Ryan and get our tree.  We came home and spent the night decorating, cooking, and working on Christmas gifts for our family.  It was a great night to stay home and work on all those things we have been meaning to work on.  I finally got our Christmas cards ordered.  I am hoping to have them out by Valentines day! Ha ha! I have been so behind in everything.  Please dont be surprised if your card arrives a few weeks late!  

As for what we have been up to this week...well, work.  That pretty much sums it all up.  Ty is on research this month, so he has a little more flexibility in his schedule, but he has still stayed very busy.  Me, there is no slowing in heart attacks and those needing heart surgery, so I have been busy taking care of all those in need of a good nurse!! (HA HA...for those that know me...you know better!!)  As for Mac, he is enjoying his last week of freedom.  On Thursday, he is going to what we have been calling "boot camp".   We have been referred to Francis at Compatible Canine, and we are hoping he will be able to tweek Mac's craziness.  We will update you as things hopefully improve...

Hope all of you are well and enjoying the holiday season.
