The snow comes, the snow goes...

What fun - a day of snow yesterday! Well ok, it was actually just the morning.

The Raincoast Clown Troupe came over last night for their Christmas Party. I was relieved none of them were wearing their clown shoes - it's dangerous to mingle dodging those big shoes! Some of them are bigger than me. My P.A. was making coffee and visiting, Beezuzu was being a bozo and shamelessly asking for attention. So that left me to take over announcing everyone's comings and goings, as well as their movements in the house. Exhausting work. And those clowns are too neat - narey a morsel of food hit the floor. I find no humour in that.

Now that the party is over, the tree & lights will be dismantled tonight. So much for my little hiding spot under the tree. I really enjoyed the quilted tree skirt and no one could find all the stuff I stashed underneath the tree... Zuzu is too big to get under it. hehe.

I can hardly wait until all the decorations are put away (except that stuffy santa I chewed the beard & pompom off of - he can stay around a while longer) then there is room for my favorite, big, comfy cushion to come back out into the living room.

Pictures coming soon ~ Ruby

P.S. The clowns blew bubbles for me - oh happy day!!! ~ Beezuzu

What I did on my Christmas Vacation...

Dec 14th, 2010, I attended a soiree at Barking Babies in Yaletown with my personal assistant. The rest of my entourage stayed home ... Beezuzu is too big for the venue and quite frankly she doesn't have the social skills to work the room like I can.

It was a costume affair with prizes for fancy party dress or tacky sweater. There were some interesting outfits but I don't do tacky sweaters, though Zuzu probably would have done well in that department. I also don't like hats, though my P.A.tells me they look good on me - I make short work of them.

So we pulled out my party dress and decided it was nice but needed a bit of a makeover. Here is the before pix of my outfit.

A tres chic outfit but check out the after pix...

The trim has irridescent spots on it and the crinoline & collar tulle has metallic stars on it. Bring on the Bling!!

So I mingled and schmoozed, noshed and shopped ... OMG I met a HOT dog (no pun intended) ... that delicious black and tan chihuahua... I'd roll over for him anytime... sigh. Oh, then I won a prize for best party dress! I had a choice of any of the artwork in the shop. Well obviously I got the dachshund painting by Pam Hudson which is hanging up on the living room wall where I can see it daily. I Love it!! Beezuzu only cared about the treat bag I brought home. I may have to get my P.A. to get a Boston Terror painting by Pam for the other wall.

Barking Babies staff hosted a great party with lots of yorkies and chihauhaus, my favorite dogs to hang with... after doxies of course.

P.S. The furry ball she brought home squeaks AND bounces. Sweet! ~ Beezuzu
