We join Annie from McGuffy’s Reader and Ellen from 15 and Meowing for today’s fill-ins. 
C’mon Shoko, you’re being a dweeb by not getting any closer to the Christmas Tree cause the choo-choo is here. 
Just look at it Kali…..it’s determined to get someone…and it ain’t going to be moi. Oh for heaven’s sake Shoks….look closer, it’s on a track and never comes off except when it hits a bump. Really? I must watch it for a few more hours.
1. Snow….BLOWS! EXCEPT FOR THE FIRST DAY WHEN IT IS FLUFFY AND WHITE….IT’S FUN THEN. 
2. I ….LIKE HELPING MOM DECORATE THE TREE.
SHE HAS NO SENSE OF DECORATING AND NEEDS KALI AND ME TO GIVE THE TREE SOME STYLE.
My turn Shoko….go stare at the train….it might jump the tracks! MOL
3. One holiday memory that I cherish is…..STAYING UP ALL CHRISTMAS EVE NIGHT UNDER THE CHRISTMAS TREE, WAITING fOR SANDY CLAWS. I BROUGHT NIPNOG AND ISLAND PARADISE TREATS. I HAD MY SELFIE CAMERA TO TAKE HIS PICTURE. I JUST SAT DOWN FOR A FEW MINUTES AFTER I TOOK A FEW SIPS OF SANDY’S NIPNOG AND WENT FAST ASLEEP. WHEN I AWOKE SANDY WAS LEAVING VIA OUR CHIMNEY AND SHOUTED DOWN….”THANKS, KALI BUT NEXT TIME STAY AWAY FROM THE NIPNOG AND YOU MAY STAY AWAKE.” 
4. I always thought that Santa ……WORE JUST HIS RED SUIT BUT HE HAD A FUR LINED PARKA WHEN HE HEADED UP THE CHIMNEY. GUESS HE FEELS THE COLD TOO.
Have a delightful fish day. 
that’s an interesting fact… has santa a thick coat too? and what’s under the suit?

I think Santa gets cold…so he has extra layers of coat and fat. hehe

Great fill-ins girls…………….Shoko I’m not to sure about the train under our tree either…..doesn’t sounds like any of the noises I’m USED to hearing in the house! Kali you look cozy in your basket and Shoko you look mighty cute tucked in under the tree………I say whatever floats your boat at Christmas is PURRFECT just the way it is.
Hugs, Teddy

I think the real Santa (or Sandy) must have sleeping dust he blows down the chimney before he slides down.

Looks like you’ve got the decorations under control, Shoks. Bear is definitely not a fan of the cold. The other day, he ran outside and turned right back around … poor guy thought his tail would freeze off!

Kali does the same as BC. She turns around and stares into the sliding glass door.

One just can’t rush into these things. I must weigh the pros and cons…adjust my furs and like my private parts while contemplating what the chances are I’ll be eaten by the train.
