Honestly... if we could afford it. And could get our horses cared for responsibly. And afford to take both dogs with (Molly is easy as an SD, but Shawnee would have to fly cargo)... I'd go spend Christmas with my parents and my grandmother (she turns 102 next month). My husband has never had a real American Christmas with all the fixings and insanity. And we could have made a Danish Christmas on the 24th over there also.
And since I'd have hubby along for the driving, we'd have to rent or borrow a car and swing by Rhonda while we were over there...
And maybe Rhonda or one of my BC people could find us a puppy to bring back with us to train up to replace Molly.
