Ambassadowial Visit fwom ovew the Big Pee

Just feast youw "mince pies" on this scene (as my dawling fwiend Ewic would say)
Look who's giving me tummie mooshies!
It's his Squawe Mom at my house all the way fwom ovew the big pee. WOOOOT!! (thanks Wuby fow that wowd)

a celebwatowy dinnew was held in the Squawe's honow , wif the attendance of my auntie Kawen and Bwuvvew Duffy
Mommi was in chawge of helping Me and Duffy taste the food befowe it was given to ouw most inpawtant guests
I wouldn't want to poison such special hoomans

accowding to Miss Enid's advice on Ate a Cat, using a pwopew linen napkin is de wigow(that's fwench fow ess enshall)

Squawe Ewic was dwessed in his festive, hat and insisted on keeping it on all thwough the evening ( I'll have to ask Miss Enid if that's pwopew? in my weading of the Ate a Cat book, boys may not weaw hatses indoows, but pawhaps Chwissmuss geaw is an exception to this wule)

Ewic had a good laugh wif ouw two Daddis..I pwefew giwl talk , so didn't join in


Even though it's not Chwissmuss yet, we weceived noomewous fantastic giftses and couldn't wait to open them

I weceived a fantastic toy that gets filled wif tweats and keeps me busy fow houws!!!!!
(this was just the tip of the giftbewg)

Squawe Mom admiwed ouw bootiful collaws that she bwought us
Duffy got one this time, and I think we awe soopew styling in them (they came all the way fwom Pawee,Fwance)


I've been pwoudly weawing mine since my last meeting wif Squawe mom in Boston

all the excitement made us a tiny bit tiwed and a nap was in owdew


I wegained my enewgy as soon as evewyone left
(Flat Ewic stayed the night and he and I stayed up singing Chwissmuss Cawols to Mommi's delight, hehehe)


any wequests?

OK Ewic , a one, a two, ........LAlalalalalalalalala

How was that?

the next evening Mommi and Daddi took a cab to whewe the Squawe's wewe staying , to meet wif auntie Jane, and auntie Kawen and be tweated to dinnew at a bootiful Westauwant



They stayed to gab till the wee houws of the night

dessewt and dwinkies wewe eaten in the lobby pawt of theiw hotel (OK only cewtain piggie Mommo's had the dessewt pawt), but she did shawe wif Flat Ewic , who was lucky enuff to be thewe

He is the most social and ewoodite of pups..
I am so honowed that he and his squawes came to visit us
