We recently had company visiting from Maryland (an old college buddy). Dogless, we went on a little human only adventure. We attended the "Flamingo Follies" in New Smyrna Beach. New Smyrna is a quaint little town that offers a street lined with shops offering an array of wonders. Well, during the Follies, they closed the street to traffic and had load of vendors selling their arts and crafts and other accoutrement.
As we made our way down the avenue, we crossed paths with another friend! It was Mary! Mary is the grandmother to Jade. Jade is a black pug we met shortly after Solsey passed away. Jade’s mom is, and I say with the utmost affection as we love her dearly and truly miss her visits, a blog stalker but only occasional commenter, "Jennifer Moulton used to be Davis".
Recently married, Jennifer had her pug Jade in her wedding. Jade, of course, is also in this OBP 2012 calendar. The photo of Jade shows her in all of her divaness at her mama’s wedding.

It was great to see Mary and we hope to Mary, Jennifer and Corey with Jade down here again soon.

I actually had a double bonus to see Mary again when I dropped off the OBP calendar to her. At that meeting she generously gave me a loaf of pumpkin bread to bring to the pugs. I will have a follow up to this story with pumpkin bread eating pug photos soon.
So, we just wanted to give a ruff ruff (i.e. pug shout out) to our old buds!

I love the holiday season, but things can get pretty stressful at times. And the pugs are not immune to the holiday stress. Just think about all the extra responsibilities the pugs have during the holiday season. There's all the extra tail wagging that needs to be done to greet all the holiday guests. Not to mention all the extra snacks that they need to plead for. And don't forget that they have to supervise the tree trimming and all the other holiday decorating.
Luckily, this isn't the pugs' first holiday season. So, they are very aware of all the extra work they have ahead of them. Therefore, they have been getting in some extra naps to make sure they are well rested and prepared for the holiday season.

We had a party last Saturday night and while everyone was off taking a look around the house Henry was manning the snack table. I guess his logic was that he was already well acquainted with the office, but these snacks, those he had not yet met.
