Holiday Pictures!!!


  • This is Lola's first holiday season & Booger's first holiday with a tree!! (Last year we had a fake 2 foot tree). Here are some pictures of their first tree & the first fire of the season!

    Our cat Spooky LOVES the new hiding spot with all the shiny, dangly stuff.

    Booger quickly plops down in front of the fire

    Andrew & Booger get comfy in front of the fire

    Happy Holidays to all!!


  • Awwww! Well done, it's beautiful!


  • Beautiful tree! Glad the pups like it too.

  • Wonderful tree, but I have to ask, how do you keep the b's from "sprinkling" on it?


  • Do you think the tree will stay intact for a few weeks?

    Hey luckily my boy squats when he pees so I don't need to worry about our tree being sprinkled. HA!

    I've just been keeping a close eye. They normally go potty in ivy & wooded areas, and I think its bushy enough & the bottom boughs are low enough it discourages them. I have more trouble keeping them from knocking the bulbs off. Between them & the cat (who thinks its a GIANT cat toy), I've had to pick up about 15 ornaments & put them back on the tree. There is evidence that an ornament broke & Andrew tried to clean it up so I wouldn't notice. I found a little red glittery shard on the floor! I don't know how they broke an ornament on carpet!
    I'm hoping it will last, but I expect it to be quite a bit shabbier by Christmas. Fortunately we won't have to drag it far to get it out of the house, so hopefully not too many needles!!!

    We have always had a "real tree". Never had a sprinkle problem. Had to revert to toddler phase when decorating. Anything breakable or had a special meaning, goes up to about 4 foot high on the tree.


  • aww man Im soo Jealous of the laying by the fire picture….thats where I wanna be RIGHT NOW!! hehehee

    Not as often as he used to, but he still does it once in a big while, and then he tries to dive under the couch like he used to, but instead he just slams into it because he is too big! haha

    @Rita: Dan how did you do that? You will have to go step by step my daughter and I both could not get them on here. I see them great from you help me please got lots more want to put on here. Got some of her chasing the kids play plane that fly's. Buana your so correct innocent is that really a word. We love her to death but she is a hand full. At the is not a dull second most of the time. How are you doing? Are you getting some rest? Third question what is the due date? Thank you Holly and crystalncody. Rita Jean I posted them from your album as I was curious to see and help you if I could do it. OK here's the steps. 1.Start your new thread in Basenji Forums. Type in what you want to start it off with. **2.**Now open another browser tab so you can open your photo album separate. **3.**Open a picture from your album. **4.**With your mouse pointer on the picture, right click on the picture. A box will open with a line that says "properties". 5.Click on that and another box will open up. On the line that says "Location", just take your mouse pointer and put it right at the the start of the http…...... and hold the left side button of your mouse down and drag it all the way across to the right until it stops. The long line of numbers should be darkened. The last letters on that line should be"jpg" Let go of the button. **6.**Put the mouse pointer on that area anywhere and right click your mouse and choose "Copy". **7.**Now you have to go back to Basenji Forums. **8.**You see those icons on top for formatting, click on that yellow square box that looks like a picture of a mountain with a moon, click on that. A box will open that says Please enter the URL of your image: Put your mouse on that line and right click and paste that long line you copied in there and then click "OK". **9.**It will now put that line of information onto your thread. You will see that same address now but no picture. That's OK because when you're done you'll see them. **10.**At the beginning and end of that line should be . Put your mouse right after that one on the end and click so your curser is blinking and then hit "enter" on your keyboard so it goes down a line. Now you can type in what you want to describe that picture that will show up. Now click "enter" again to go down a line 11.Now go back to your album and do those same steps again for the rest of pictures. I will now try it. [image: 374821752.jpg] Isn't Jaycee cute! [image: 374821745.jpg] I'm ready for a show!
