HAPPY MEW YEAR!!!

The cozy cottagers all wish you dearest furiends a most happy mew year...one that will be better than the past one although we must be thankful to the Lord for all his blessings even in stormy times.  Our wish for us all is that the new year will bring a bright hope on each horizon.
Cole will be returning home this weekend and that leaves us quite sad...he loves us kitties so much and we adore him.  Summer will bring him back to us and we will endure the wait knowing that.
Please know how much we treasure your furiendships and thank you for your visits.  Stay safe, warm and keep a gladden heart.

MERRY CHRISTMAS and GOD BLESS US EVERYONE!

 All the chocolates were hung on the little tree...see how big our boy Cole is now!  The angel fell off the tree and he just reached right up there and put her back on!

 It was a Christmas of socks and skateboards stuff...

 off course I had to be beside him all the time... and look who we got to watch on TV!  Lucy and Ricky...and Fred and Ethel...four fun Santa's just like the four chocolate Santa's on the shelf!

Merry Christmas to all our faithful friends...we treasure that you care for us and honor us with your visits at the cozy cottage!

SOMEONE SPECIAL THIS WAY COMES....and we don't mean Santa!

Guess who we are getting ready for at the cozy cottage?  Coming on a big airplane all the way from Denver is our favorite buddy Cole!  I will wait on his blanket to keep it warm...it is going to be a wonderful Christmas.  Lots of good food, playing games, decorating the Christmas tree with chocolates...and brown paper packages tied up with strings....these are a few of our favorite things!  Stay tuned for more as the fun unfolds....Happy Sunday!

 waiting with a nice nappy...

IT'S BEGINNING TO LOOK A LOT LIKE CHRISTMAS...

 Yeah for TJ MAXX...mommy found Lebkuchen there!  Yummy yummy yummy she kept saying as she opened the package.  The stuff on the silver tray is off limits to us kitties, yeah right, only if WE say so too.

 Well I do not care right now...time for a nap in the best chair...I have my own purrrrsonal guardian standing by in case of danger...

 Mommy bought some white lights to lay on the mantle..this picture was taken in the dark with no flash...I think we could land a Boeing 747 on that mantle!  Way to bright...

My special spot in the window is looking better as each day goes by...the gold foil star is from mommies Oma  over 40 years ago...still our favorite.
Little Miss Hope just wants to know what happened to whatever it was on the plate..."Hey was it cheese mommy.  You know how much I love cheese!"

I GOT A NICE NEW GIFTY FROM MOMMY!

 Well my window seat is all decked out for the holidays now...mommy gave me a new light!

 It is filled with magic that bubbles up and down all the time when it is turned on!

I like the red color...I think it is very festive for the season...can you see the bubbles doing their dance?  If I get real close, it keeps my nose warm.  Wishing you all a very happy second advent Sunday.

60 YEARS AGO TODAY...
