      Merry Christmas! To everybody!!!!  (I'm not into that "Happy Holidays" crap---its Christmas)

 Maybe I'm just a rig pig Christmas pussy, but I liked this one----Linda sent it to me

A Nativity Scene was erected in a church yard. 

During the night the folks came across this scene.



An abandoned dog was looking for a comfortable, protected place to sleep.  He chose baby Jesus as his comfort.  No one had the heart to send him away so he was there all night.

We should all have the good sense of this dog and curl up in Jesus' lap from time

to time.

This is too sweet not to share.  No one mentioned that the dog breed is a "shepherd!"

(Sent exactly as I got it.)

  Things seem to have changed!  Seems to be a different man.  I wish you and your lovely family a VERY Merry Christmas.  Good luck and keep going my friend.

Merry Christmas back Gary. Wonderful pic. Lot of society is trying to do away with God and Xmas. Morals seem to be non existent anymore.
 
Hey CappyR

Just looked at all 3 posts.  All worked great.  All were very inspirational.  So, a VERY Merry Christmas to Ray and Peggy, Marky Bear, Momma cat and her 3 little kittens.  Glad to hear you got them fixed. Sorry to hear about Spike and Brat, but MY angel tells me God loves fiddle music and dogs (and while not always happy with me, my angel has never lied to me--although I haven't always been happy with what I've been told. LOL People don't realise that angels are all around us--you just have to listen with your heart)

Hope you have a great Christmas

Gary,Linda, 2 black Labs and a black cat (from out in the Alberta bush) oops, guess I better add a cougar, since one just walked thru my front yard--glad the hounds were inside as they're dumb enough to want to play with the visitor

Thanks Gary, your kind words touched my heart and when I read them to Peg she teared up.  We make our own cards and Peg draws them up.  We try to make the front light hearted cartoon about our life and always include a message from the reason for the season inside.  Am glad ya liked it and May you have the most joyous of Christmasses.  God bless from kindred spirits down in Bayou country.
