December 3: 10 Days of Blazingstar - The Christmas Collar

Dave has a collar addiction (thanks Christine for that!). So Cedar has three collars: summer is the yellow one, fall is the leaf one, and winter is the snowflake one. In all the hubbub we forgot to bring her winter collar out for Dec 1, but she got it yesterday and showed it off today. And of course it was another toy-crazy free for all!

Cava started off taunting Cedar with the yellow man (sounds like a code word for something far less innocuous)...
Come get him Cedar, I've got the yellow man

I'm faster than you Cedar, lalalalala
Eventually Cedar had the yellow man. Only because Cava got tired of it. There's no way she would have given it up willingly.

Hi my name's Cedar and I'm the newest cast member in the Muppets.

Looking so innocent (in her winter collar)
I guess yellow man got boring, so Cedar moved on to green box (where do these toys come from Liz? Do they spontaneously emerge from the prairie dirt?)


All that running calls for a snow spa treatment. Everyone on your backs in the icy snow!

Tinbie tries to rub his face off in the snow, while Puffin does a complicated disco move in the background.

Lingering at the spa. Tinbie is now completely relaxed.
Cedar doesn't last long at the spa because she doesn't know the meaning of the word 'relax' (on her own she's as much work as 3 Blazingstar dogs!)

Nom nom nom I love stick.

I'm too sexy for this toy, too sexy for this toy...
 
Puffin prefers brawn over beauty with her firewood addiction (not that she's not beautiful)
Finally! A tired Cedar! Hallelujah!

I can hardly keep my eyes open...can we do this again tomorrow??

  1. Coulee has been enjoying the snow spas as well lately. I wonder why when they are in limited supply they are so fun?

    1. I wonder if they get harder/crunchier and do a better job of scratching backs when the snow's so old? The dogs are really addicted to it out here!
