This day I love.......

The big day is almost here, not many more sleeps to go. Santa Paws is on his way. The house is decorated, the kids are excited for the Big man to arrive and J is a bit confused as to all the festivities. He is not to be forgotten though. My best mate needs treating this Christmas. 

Santa Paws is on his way bringing with him a heap of goodies for J. 


J is my training buddy and accompanies me on many of my runs, so with this in mind Santa Paws will be bringing him a few things to help this festive season.

A warm cosy jumper ready for those longer runs. Plus doesn't everyone need a festive jumper?



A flashing and reflective collar, ready for those dark nights as we train together. He needs to be seen and to be safe, plus the essential poop bags. I am a responsible owner after all.

Even a dog deserves a Christmas dinner and a treat, so some pigs in blankets should be a wonderful festive treat for J.

Last but not least, all dogs deserve a new toy for Christmas. J is no different. He loves things that squeak and removing the squeak from them, his new Darth Vader is perfect for him. Loads of squeaks for him to find but non of the fluff!

Thanks to B&M for treating J this Christmas and getting him in the festive spirit!

I cannot quite believe it is Christmas eve, it seems to have flown by!

We have a bit of a Christmas eve tradition of an afternoon walk.  It helps to break up the day and use up some of the excess energy the girls seem to build up because it is Christmas.  I also think the fresh air does them some good.

We had a lovely muddy walk, splashing in muddy puddles and of course running around.

Muddy walks

Our lovely muddy walked resulted in two girls having a warm splish splash when they got home.  They were very excited and asked when they could put out the milk and biscuits for Father Christmas.  Our spotty dog was all excited for her first Christmas and fell asleep straight after dinner.

After dinner the girls went outside to see if they could spot Father Christmas flying past.  It was really magical watching his sleigh [International Space Station] fly past.  Whilst I tried to capture a photo myself I struggled with carrying a 2 year old and excited 4 year old, my rather lovely friend Trudi has kindly said I could use her photo

The girls were amazed that Father Christmas flew over their house.  It was truly magical.  My eldest then wanted to sprinkle the reindeer food, leave the key by the front door and of course cake, carrot and milk for Father Christmas and Rudolph.

The girls have gone to bed very excited after a magical day.  Spotty dog is still fast asleep and waiting for Santa Paws to arrive.
