While I was enjoying the garden, Claire and Pixie had a lot to do inside. This weekend was long reserved for the preparation of cards and packages to be sent for Christmas. Because we have a lot of friends overseas, everything has to be ready at the beginning of December.
Today is also the first Sunday of Advent, and Claire finished the wreath just in time: let the countdown to Christmas begin !
Whew! Sounds like y’all are way too busy with all that. Mom and dad have just their small circle of friends (mom’s, really), and both their families aren’t real close, so they don’t have this to deal with. Ever. After all the preparations are done with I hope you get to relax some.
It’s so hard to believe that December is upon us! What a year it has been.
It’s nice to see you, Zorro and Pixie. We need to get busy on our cards soon, too!
Hugs!
Hello you two! It’s time fur sure and your candle display looks beautiful!
I got all my overseas cards written today to post tomorrow. I missed out on the Cat Bloggers list this year. I rarely go on FB and didn’t see it. Not to worry though, I will send to all the people I usually send to.
Yes the countdown is on!
We are not sure what Christmas will be like this year but we will make it FUN !
Like your Advent candles 🙂
Purrs, Julie
We have been cracking the whip to get our human to help us blog, but she has been complaining that she has so much art to create…we thought about giving her some slack, but we have been neglected too long! Claire is a mircle worker!
And you guys look terrific!

You’re so festive! The mom is way behind on getting cards and packages ready. We might be on time for New Years!
I’m glad Pixie helped Claire – it sounds like a lot of work!
we are still not ready.. it came too early this time LOL
It’s a busy time of the year for our humans but “business as usual” for us cats…..we just hope that as everyone gets busier, they don’t forget to feed the kitties (and get lots of presents for them of course!).
Hugs, Teddy
Mum brought stuff up from the dungeon for Christ-mouse, but not all of it is up or hooked up just yet. Mum should get working on her cards too.
Boy oh boy is your Mom ever organized!! I need to learn from her! Wish I could use real candles but can’t with Roary. Can’t even use the ones that light with a wick that moves…he tries to chew the wick. 🙁
We are only ending out E-cards to everyone…maybe a couple of the regular kind to a few relatives who do not have computers. *She* used to make mountains of cards! Wow, those were the days!!
Your Mom is very organized and on the ball! um…not here, nope, not here at all!
What a gorgeous Advent Wreath.
You Christmas Cat Elves look like you’re very helpful to your Mom. Enjoy the season all.

Your Advent wreath is beautiful.
I too managed to get my overseas cards out in the mail, but now for the bulk of the USofA ones…whew!
But I’m not ready to deal with Christmas! {sigh}
Wow, Mom Claire is so well organized. Our mom is not. She did finish decorating, however, which is a huge accomplishment for her. She usually hasn’t even started by now. Zorro, C.J. says that you are welcome to join her in her sun puddle anytime. XOCK, angel Lily Olivia, angel Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, angel Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth, Calista Jo, Cooper Murphy and Sawyer
Very well-organized!
We can tell that you just want to jump into that box and claim it for yourself 🙂
What fun! We have our cards done too! Thanks so much for the wonderful list
Everything is made better with a cat helper. Especially such a cute one.
it’s good to know that some people still believe in writing letters! love the wreath!
