Christmas in July

Meows from Mudpie!

Today we want to thank the wonderful Miss Ellen of 15 and Meowing for the pawsome Christmas in July package she sent us.


She sent Mommy some Nightmare Before Christmas ornaments, Summerween decor, and a copy of her new book, My Friend Joanie...


...and she sent me a super fun patriotic-themed ice cream cone toy! 

I'm not sure if Mommy has ever mentioned this, but when she was a little girl my grandpa delivered ice cream to local stores. Her classmates were always so jealous that her Dad was the ice cream man! (Yes, he did get to bring home lots of samples.) So needless to say ice cream is quite special at our house. 

Mommy also wanted me to point out that My Friend Joanie is beyond adorable. While reading it she had the biggest smile on her face. She said she's pretty sure she spoke of her childhood cat Patch the same way little Rylee did during her school days long, long ago. He was most definitely her BFF.


We can't thank Miss Ellen and her kitties enough for always thinking of us during Christmas in July and picking out the most purrfect gifts!

Wow! What a great haul, Mudpie! And that’s so cool about your grandpa being the ice cream man.
