Last weekend Mum had a day out with some friends from the stables and took Mena to a place where they have an all weather arena with show jumps and cross country jumps and a water splash. They all had a great time and Mena really enjoyed herself although I am told she did seem a little wary about the water and tried to jump in!
Arrived and taking it all in |
Ella putting her through her paces
Last Monday we met up with Aunty Debbie, Uncle Dave, Trevor and Joan for our pre-Christmas walk. Four hoomans to seven dogs - Fergus, Inca, Lola, Dery, Milly, Murphy and Me - seems quite a good number to me but sadly no photos as it was very grey and wet and the hoomans wanted to get to their Christmas lunch. Typical! But at least mum brought turkey sausages for all of us.
So just seven sleeps to go before I get to see properly what has been hiding in the Christmas drawer for the last few weeks. She who should be obeyed won't let me have a good rummage even though I know there are things in there for us!
I am pleased to say most of our present buying and wrapping has been done. Mum says there is more food to buy (?) and of course the turkey to collect and a final visit to see Mena on Friday and that's it. Mum is taking her out on Boxing Day when we will give hand over her presents .. oh yes she has more in addition to the winter turnout rug Dad bought and that she has been wearing (and rolling around in the field in) for the last 3 weeks.
Murphy and I would like to wish a very Happy Christmas to everyone out there.
