Pavarotti at the Airport

Although Pavarotti and the Prairie Piggies are marooned at the airport, he managed to send us a Christmas photo on his phone. This is his friend, Lovely Rita. He apologises for the quality of the pigture but thought you would like to see it anyway. They are about to travel back home and better pigtures will be forthcoming in the future.

The Prairie Piggies say Happy Christmas to you all and hope that everyone and everypig is safe from the terrible snow and cold.

A message from the Prairie Piggies

 "Hey guys," says Peaches Piggyfriend," I have a message from the Prairie Piggies."

"Pavarotti says that they are all stuck at the airport due to the dreadful weather. The Pig Air pilot has told them that it is not safe to take off as the runway is covered in snow and they will not be able to make it to our party."

" That is so disappointing but maybe we can invite them all to a New Year Party instead."

Merry Christmas from the Piggyville Girls

 

"Hey Ceilidh! Wake up!" says Shannon. " Mother Christmas has brought us stockings full of gifts!" 

"What are stockings?" asks Ceilidh. " They are those fuzzy things that Mum wears around the house," replies Shannon. " She even has warm stockings that she puts on her feet when she goes to bed. But these are special stockings full of gifts for good guinea pigs."

"Ooh! Look at all the goodies that Mother Christmas gave us." exclaims Shannon.  "We must have been very good piggies this year. We are going to share some of our goodies with all the piggies and the people who love them, who have travelled far from foreign lands to find peace and safety here is Swannanoa, North Carolina."

Merry Christmas everyone! Dear readers please note that we did not eat the Christmas Pudding! It is only there as a decoration. Our Humans are going to eat it after their dinner.

Happy Holidays!

Scottie, Fitz, and Coke here!

We are very excited to be invited to a Christmas party and are busy preparing for our trip. I, Scottie, wanted to bring my snowman mug along with me, hoping there will be, um, libations, and I also packed some food in my Santa lunchbox. I mean, I packed food for all of us in our lunchbox. (You will see a pigture of Coke with it, too.)

Fitz said he wasn't going anywhere unless he could take Santa with him. He promises he has been a good boy this year, and he wants to make sure Santa knows where he is when presents are being delivered.

Coke said he's a bit behind in sending his cards out, so he's bringing some with him, and he hopes everyone will notice the lovely guinea pig on the towel we are using to keep our feet warm.

We hope everyone and everypig will have a wonderful holiday season!

Christmas Party!

 Hello Readers. Oscar Piggyfriend here. I am trying to organise a Christmas Party for our friends.

"Bella? Do you think that I have ordered enough food for our guests?"

" I am not sure that there can ever be enough food," replies Bella, "especially as I saw you eating the last corn cob earlier."

"Not to worry," says Oscar (eyeing that nice, juicy red pepper in the box ) "Slave's son is shopping this evening and he will bring more when he comes on Christmas Eve tomorrow."

"Slave has cut some lovely fresh grass and we can always send her out for more."

Oscar has sent invitations to Fitz, Scottie and Coke and they have replied but he has not been able to contact the Prairie Piggies. Pavarotti has bought a special costume for Christmas and the Piggyfriends are longing to see it. Their Slave has had problems with her computer for a long time so, maybe, they cannot send us a message.

Slave was watching the news and she says that there is terrible weather in the US and Canada so it may be that Pig Air will not be able to take off. 

We are all keeping our paws crossed that they are able to come but, if not, we will organise a New Year Party too.

Happy Thanksgiving from the Piggyville Girls.

 We do not celebrate Thanksgiving in England so the Piggyfriends have asked our US friends to help us out. This post comes from the Piggyville Girls in North Carolina.

" Oh no Ceilidh!" squeaks Shannon. "Mom has that silver thing that flashes lights in our eyes. She has also bribed us with lettuce so she must be up to something."

"It is a camera Shannon," replies Ceilidh, " and no matter how many pictures she takes of me, I will always look like a black blob but who cares, let us enjoy the lettuce."

"Wow! Mom has given us a pecan pie! What is the special occasion?" asks Shannon.

"It is because on Thanksgiving our humans celebrate all the good things in their lives and we are the best things that ever happened to them." replies Ceilidh. " However, I think that I will stick to lettuce and let Mom and Dad have the pie."

We both want to wish all the piggies and humans a Happy Thanksgiving. We all have so much for which to be grateful.

Happy Thanksgiving

Coke here, wanting to wish a Happy Thanksgiving to all who celebrate.

At the beginning of my photo shoot, my mom set out some small pieces of carrot and squash to make the photo look more festive, and, yes, to keep me occupied. Those photos didn't come out as well as she had hoped, so she tried again, without the food.

Can you believe it? But I decided to pose for her politely (having already eaten by then), and she decided the second set of pigtures was better.

I hope you will like this pigture. It was fun to sit with the pumpkin "sculpture," even though it was inedible. (It was actually so obviously inedible that I didn't even try to smell it. LOL.)

There is a lot of orange, which is now making me hungry, so I am dreaming of carrots, raw sweet potato slices, pumpkin pie ... Oh, my mom says I can't eat pumpkin pie. Hey, two out of three isn't bad.

Don't worry, I promise to share my holiday goodies with Scottie and Fitz!
