Mom has a surprise for Pickles today. When she gets off the bus, she, Rufus and Mom are going to the beach to enjoy the beautiful weather!

Pickles and Rufus had a great time over the Thanksgiving holiday. Nana and Papa left yesterday to go back home and everything is back to normal…..until the long holiday break in December!

Pickles and Rufus are having a great time with Nana and Papa during their visit. Soon Pickles will help Mom and Nana make a pumpkin pie. Rufus is always close by when there is cooking going on in the kitchen!

The Pickering family went to the Grand Illumination parade last night and it was beautiful! Everyone is still sleeping soundly, but soon another fun day will begin:)

Pickle’s Nana and Papa are coming to visit this weekend and they are going to stay the whole week! Rufus loves the special treats they bring, and Pickles loves all of the attention she gets from her grandparents.

Today, Pickles fell down at school during a game of dodgeball and scraped her knee. The nurse took care of her at school and Rufus and Mom will take care of her at home:)

The weekend will soon begin! At 3:00, Mom and Rufus will meet Pickles at the bus stop and they will all head to the park. Patience, the fairy, and Rufus have been waiting patiently all day:)

Pickles got out of school at noon to go to the dentist. She had a good checkup and now she and Rufus are playing upstairs. Rufus chews on dental bones and his teeth are doing well also:)

It looks like Pickles and Rufus will have nice weather for their big plans this weekend. Pickles best friend, Sarah, is coming over for a sleepover on Saturday and she is bringing her dog, Cookie. Shhh…Rufus has a secret crush on Cookie:)
