bluespirit: (Buddy Xmas)
[personal profile] bluespirit
I actually put our decorations up early this year (in honour of [livejournal.com profile] xanthelj's visit last week *g*) but have only just got around to taking some pics.

Here's my helpful assistant who also supervised* the putting up of the tree.


*translation: generally got in the way, sniffed the contents of every box, rolled around on the tree branches while I was trying to put it together, knocked globes onto the floor, etc, etc... *g*



Here's the tree.  We have ornaments that we've collected or made over the years - all have memories attached. :)


We don't have a star or an angel on top of our tree - we have a black Lab.  Naturally! *g*


A running decoration from Whistler, BC, Indiana Jones (it plays the Raiders theme) & Yoda (with a selection of wise phrases!)


Legolas & Aragorn, our Space Shuttle decoration from the Smithsonian, & a few of the very many Bud & Rascal ornaments.



John & Rodney under the mistletoe, our original Trek transporter pad (with sound & light!), Qui Gon (Obi Wan is just out of shot) & Thor.




Bud standing sitting guard. *g*



Our little light-up village scene complete with a snow-covered black Lab. (Okay, it's a white dog but in my mind it's a snow-covered black Lab!)



Buddy's stocking on the right & Rascal's on the left (we still hang his stockings as he's always with us in spirit. ♥ )


The Budster! ♥


*sings*
'It's starting to feel a lot like Christmas...' *g*


Happy Thursday to everyone!
*hugs*

ETA: d-oh!  I forgot these guys. *g*

Buddy is so adorable! I love the black lab tree topper! Everything looks very festive.
Merry Christmas!

Awww Buddy's so adorable!

I have two doggies, Nesta(male)is a Shih tzu and he'll turn 8 tomorrow and Princess, she just turned 4 and she's a mix between Shih tzu and pekingese and they are the "inspectors" they make sure I do everything good LOL

Awesome ornaments you have ^_^

Hee! Thanks, Hilde. I just love buying/making ornaments - it's like a little visual history of places we've been & our hobbies - & of course, our beautiful hounds! ♥

Bud send lots of cuddles to his Auntie Hilde.

Oh what a lovely tree. Buddy, you supervised VERY well! We don't do a tree here. The cats seem to think it is some odd 3-dimensional pinball machine and all "heck" breaks loose...

What a lovely tree! Buddy did a fine job! (so did you!)

My tree has to go on a table to avoid tail-damage from the Dumpling. Thank goodness I have a vaulted ceiling!

LOL I know just what you mean - we do have ornaments flying across the room when Bud gets especially happy. That's why I put all the glass ones above tail height! *g*

Is that Dumpling in your icon? Adorable!! ♥

Hee! I've seen them all in person and my favourite is still the Star Trek one! LOL! But in terms of pics - that one at the end of Buddy is just adorable! He's such a silly sausage :-). I love also that in the second to last one the drawing of Buddy is visible in the background!

Bud wants his Christmas presents!

Sorry I'm a little late but has anyone noticed that LJ is sending stuff out of dated order? I'm getting stuff dated new from places and then getting older dated stuff right after. I didn't get this until today and it says 3 days ago? Anyone know what's going on? I'm missing so much mail daily.
