Happy Australia Day!

Hey I never posted about Australia Day! We went to the cockroach races at the Story Bridge Hotel. The first video is the bagpipe processional, where the racers are brought out. The second shows a race.

Nudgee Beach

Brian and Betty's favorite place to visit is Nudgee Beach.  It's on the bay, and if you go during low tide, there are miles of beach, and saltwater puddles.  Brian loves chasing the birds, and Betty loves chasing Brian.  Brian even had a go at the obstacle course!  He is very athletic for a pug.  After leaving NB (as it's known in our house, since if you say "Nudgee Beach", Brian and Betty go crazy), wet Brian got cold from the air con in the car.  He was throwing a tantrum, and we realized that we was cold.  So Karyn (Ben's mum) wrapped him up in a cardigan and all was well in pugland.

We had a great New Year's Eve.

Pugmas

Christmas was a beautiful day. It was my first one in Australia, and very different to anything I'm used to. Brian & Betty were sent paw print stockings, and jingle bell attire from their not-grandma. They looked adorable. We had a beautiful day with family, friends, and food. Lots of delicious food.

This is how happy Brian and Betty are after the pug Christmas party
