Mom loves photo apps. Yesterday, Stella Starlight’s human Sis used a photo app called SuperPhoto on one of her pictures.
Mom played around with the painting feature last night. Fun!
This might be Mom’s fave. She calls it: “Sunshine Boy”.
“Boy With Toy”
“Space for Two”
There is this ‘still dog’ entitled “Lucy’s Flowers”. It’s a delightful app. Have some fun. ~ Indy and Lucy

It was a dark and stormy Sunday. We have had torrential rains the last two days.
We are just taking it easy and watching our world out the window (Scottie TV).
Snoozing in front of the fire is good too.
Cozy
Mom has added a few more cards to the Scottie fridge.
Yep, it’s a good life. ~ Indy and Lucy

Mom fixed dinner Christmas Eve dinner.
Then we had to get to bed early so Santa could visit.
The next morning we opened our socks and played with our toys.
Then Mom and Dad went to Tulsa to have dinner with Mom’s cousins. These are some of the younger ones.
We stayed home and guarded the house. Happy Holiday season, Everybody. ~ Indy and Lucy

Mom is behind because something went haywire with uploading blog photos and we took a road trip to Amarillo. We would like to thank those who have sent us presents and cards. We appreciate your thoughtfulness this holiday season.
This a life saving present to Mom from our friend Ling Chua in Singapore. Mom is still stunned by her generosity.
A pretty ornament came from Joanne Gosselin and Cooper. Coop’s a Wheatie in Rhode Island.
This wonderful package arrived via Brazil from Flavia Vezzoni and Logan.
Our Illinois friends, Mary Bower, Piper and Skye, sent us these cool toys, ornament and magnets.
Vicki McDaniel, Emma, Bosco and Mac from Kentucky mailed this tote full of toys.
Kim Magnuson, Stewart and Nigel from Utah posted these great gifts made by Kim. She is so talented.
Ainsley McKenna, her peeps and cats from Illinois filled a box with yummy treats and toys.
We love this treat jar from Mike and Debbie Crawford, Oklahoma. We hope it will always be full.
The top treats are for us made by our California friend, Patty Brown. They are yum-o. Scottie tasted. The bottom are for Mom from her former student and friend, Marni Major, OK. Mom tasted.
From Dogtown in Kentucky (Pauline and Barbara Stuckey and kids), arrived some gifts for everyone.
Mom hopes we acknowledged everyone and didn’t miss anybody. If you sent a gift on the 23 or 24, it won’t be posted here. Like we said, Mom is catching up. We love this yellow duck from Wendy Bowthorpe and kids (Utah). Mom loves the apron. We do appreciate everyone thinking of us and with all our hearts: THANK YOU! ~ Indy, Lucy and their Mom

These are numbers 24-28 in the 2015 Parade of Ornaments.
Many more were out there this year. Collecting Scottie ornaments is a lot of fun. They are plentiful, a perfect gift for Mom, each one has a memory attached, you put them up, take them down and they don’t have to be dusted. Here are some faves from other years.
They all come together in a beautiful Scottie tree. Merry Christmas, Everyone! ~ Indy and Lucy

Mom said Santa was coming and we had to look our best.
I showed Santa how polite I am.
Santa said Sister needed to use her inside voice. BOL! Naturally, she wanted him to play fetch.
Sister and Santa
Santa and me
Sister wants on Santa’s lap.
Santa still has to visit other girls and boys so…..
From our house to yours: “Happy Christmas to all, and to all a goodnight.” ~ Indy and Lucy

Sometimes our Sissy’s job as a nurse and the fact that she lives in Colorado don’t allow us to have holidays on the exact day that they happen. We have become accustomed over the years and just take them when they come. We had Christmas last weekend, for example. We also had it in Amarillo, Texas which is a halfway driving point for both of us.
Here we are loaded up in our car seats and seatbelts. They make us safe as a child buckled in….wait, that’s what we are.
Mom taking a break from reading
We stayed at the Drury, a super pet friendly hotel. We were on our best behavior and wowed everyone. Sister did growl at the English Mastiff and Lassie dog but the poodle, yorkies, corgi, basset, westie, lab, boxer, shih Tzu, and some we didn’t know their breed were all treated respectfully. Mom was glad we didn’t see the ferrets.
Of course, seeing Sissy was the best part.
We watched the parking lot while they went out to eat.
Mom and Sissy did some shopping too. Some boys asked to have their pictures made with us.
We had the best time. We decided that we will do the 1/2 way thing more often. We might go north next time; halfway would be Wichita, Kansas. Thanks for spending Christmas with us.
Homeward bound, we are good travelers. ~ Indy and Lucy

Mom wanted to do a white tree this year so our black Scottie ornaments would show up better. She first bought a full size flocked one from QVC. When she had Dad take it out of the box, white stuff was going everywhere and we were trying to eat it. She looked at him and said: “Well, this will never do!” or words to that effect if you know what I mean. Her next attempt was a small white tabletop tree. It was plastic, cheap and looked it but she decided to make do.
By the time she used ribbon, picks, sparkles and bows to fill it in, she decided it would look nice with our white and red painted Christmas balls.
This has always been one of Mom’s faves no matter the tree.
These ornaments were all purchased from ebay over the last few years.
Who doesn’t love snowmen and Scotties?
The table where the tree sits is Sister’s window spot. Mom said it is a disaster waiting to happen. So next year it is destined to be porch tree minus the ornaments, of course. She has already located a shiny red tub to put it in. For this year though, we are enjoying the extra cheer. Hoping your holidays are shiny and bright too. ~ Indy and Lucy
