This has been a very busy time at our house. Last week I was visiting my girlfriends a lot so I didn't have time to write. Then on Monday, Mom took her van ice skating and crashed it into a guard rail on the way to work. I was really worried about my pinwheel collection (it is in the van) but Mom said it was safe in the extra crate. Then, today ... I heard this weird noise coming from the big freezer where Mom keeps our Frosty Paws, so I went and found Mom and told her! Sure enough, the freezer was hissing and crackling ... I kept barking ..."Save my Frosty Paws!" So like a good Mom and Dad, my slaves went to Sears and bought me a brand new freezer to keep my Frosty Paws in. It will come on Monday. In the meantime, my Frosty Paws are safe in the little freezer that is by the refrigerator. I offered to eat them all, but Mom said no!<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>When Mom and Dad came back from Sears, they had this "mystery bag" with them. They put it on the table, got out the scissors, and cut a bunch of tags off some stuff. I kept trying to peek but they wouldn't let me. Finally, they put the stuff on the floor ... WOW! There was a train, a jet airplane, a car, a race car, an ambulance, a <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>helicopter, a submarine, a milk truck, a police car, and even a vet ambulance! And they all made noise. Abby likes the train ... it whistles, bells clang, and it goes chug-a-chug. Morey likes the airplane the best ... it sounds like a jet taking off. My favorite is the car ... when I put it in my mouth it beeps its horn. These toys are the coolest toys I have ever had! When we all get the toys going at the same time, it is awesome! Mom says it sounds like Grand Central Station, JFK airport, Newport News docks and the LA Freeway in the living room! I think it sounds neat! <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Gotta go make some noise!<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Slurps, <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Nick<o:p></o:p></p></div></body></html>
