Pickles helped Mom and Dad decorate for Christmas last weekend. Their house looks lovely and everyone is excited about the season. School is almost over for the holidays and soon Pickles and Rufus will have lots of time to play!

Pickles and Rufus are eating breakfast on this brisk and sunny Sunday morning. Even though it is still chilly outside, the day will warm and soon enough it will be playtime for these two best friends. Happy Sunday!

It’s Friday! Pickles, Rufus, and Mom, are going to the Farmers Market this weekend. They are also going to cut some of the swiss chard in their garden. Yum!
