MY BIRTHDAY and CHRISTMAS too



Today is my 7th birthday and the Winter Solstice which means it is dark a lot.



Elly and Knutty came over on Saturday and we had apple and cookies but we had to soak Knutty's cookies because  


he went to the dentist. But he is better now.



This is a dog I do not know who was outside a shop.
He looks like the sort of dog I would be friends with.


These are my regular friends - Charlotte and Biggie and Buddha.


This is my official birthday portrait which is in black and white to make it look important.


Yes, I do still go to the park but not so often.


This is me with two girls who you know - Charlotte and Darcy.



I got two Christmas cards. This one is from the Hamish.


This one is from James in Washington. I did not send out any cards this year.



Now I am going to have a nap on my sister's bed that is coming from England on Wednesday night. This evening we are going to decorate the tree that is in our house.


I hope you have a 
REALLY GOOD CHRISTMAS 
and holidays and a great new year.



Love

from

BUSTER

    HAppY bIRthDaY to you, Buster.
    It doesn't look like you have any snow? I bet you are happy about that! We have lots of rain and mom has put towels down all over the mudroom because our paws are filthy. I don't like to be wet (but I DO like snow, except for the "snowballs" that form between my toes - I chew them.) Rain makes me un-fluffy. grrrr. Baths, too. double grrrr. Well, you have a nice holiday. What do you think you'll get for Christmas?
    love from Isla way out in WA state.

      dear Sweetpea
      I have not had a bath for ages.
      I do not like them anyway.
      Hope you get some snow!

    Buster, now that you are seven you are all grown up! I knew this anyway from the very adult birthday portrait your mum shared on Instagram. I really like it in black and white, too. Did you know that "the dog" in Finland was visited recently by your friend, Jo? I'm sure she misses you and will visit (with treats) soon. Thank you for sharing photos of your friends, I sometimes wonder what you are all up to. Was I mistaken or has Dream Date Darcy lost her title OR were you just being a gentleman in front of Charlotte OR was meeting both ladies at the same time a bit of a sticky wicket? You seemed to be taking it very calmly. If this happens again perhaps you can call on Knutty to help you entertain?

    Love to all in your household! Happy Christmas and have fun with your sister.

    Happy Birthday to you Buster...today's also the winter solstice, and that's just another reason to mark it on the calendar. You are wearing your years very well, you're still as handsome as ever.

    Funny that you and I are both on a certain someone's Christmas card list.

    Happy Christmas Buster...I know you will enjoy seeing your sister in just a few more days.

      I'm glad you gave presents to the one who shares my birthday!
      Yes, you must be very sad without Watson.
      Warmest wishes and Mum says thank you for the lovely Christmas card too.

    A very happy birthday to you. I hope you really enjoyed it. Nothing like treats and friends for your birthday.

    You are looking particularly fluffy. I hope you are staying warm.

    It is starting to get cold where I live but probably not as cold as you. We don't get snow. But it is raining.

    I will be 12 in February.

    My Mom is making me treats for Christmas.

    I'm glad your sister is coming to visit. I know you like her a lot.

    Love from Ramses.

      Dear Ramses
      I am glad you are getting some good treats for Christmas. Food is the best present ever.
      I am fluffy because I do not like the dog groomer much.
      I think 12 is a very good age to be.
      love from
      Buster

    Hi Buster! I was so happy to see a new post, I'm glad you are doing well, and Happy Birthday to you! I just had my 14th last Friday. My mum says you are looking quite soft and cuddly. Tell your mum to give you a snuggle from my mum.
    Love, Ozzy The Poodle In Penna.

      Hi Ozzy! 14 is a great age! Skippy who lived with my family before me lived to be 16 which is even better.
      It is not cold in NY so I bet it isn't cold in Penna either!

      Dear Sonia,
      You are right the dog outside the shop does have the same kind face as dear Flora.
      I bet she and Buster would have been friends!

    Late to wish you this, Buster, but Happy Birthday. Much to admire here: your official birthday photo, those two Christmas cards, that old-school blanket on your sister's bed, and of course your usual reflectiveness. Good things in 2016!

    Well who can believe it - 7! Congratulations and Buster my man you are looking as handsome as ever in your official portrait! You clearly engage a good photographer.
    I'm guessing you'll be dragging the blue boots our before too long. :)
