It's Christmas everywhere!

I don't know where the time goes.  Last time I posted on this blog, it was Halloween and the store was filled with scary stuff.  And now it's Christmas and there are Christmas trees and twinkly lights everywhere!  I have an excuse for not being around lately.  A really good one.  I had a bug.  Not the crawly-spider kinda bug.  I had an animal bug.  Swine flu!!  I'm better now, so don't worry about picking up any germs from me.  And I'm loving all the new stuff I'm finding in the store.  I'm also feeling kinda of playful, and since I don't have anybody around to play with, I'm choosing YOU as my playmate! 

So here's how the game goes...I'm gonna post a whole bunch of pictures.  One 'thing' is in every one of the pictures.  Let's see if you can find that 'thing.'  Here goes! 

Well?  How did you do?  Did you find the one thing that was the same in every picture?  No?  Well, I'll give you  a little hint....I'm in every picture!  Me, Vinnie Mouse! 

What?  You can't find me?  Okay, I know I'm kinda small, but really.  You gotta try harder!  I'll give you another hint.  In two of the pictures I'm rocking. 

Now do you see me?  No?  What are you, blind or something?!  Okay.  This is the last hint you're gonna get.  This is a pic of litte ol' me, all by myself.
  

Well, duh, I guess you can find me now that I've told you exactly what...I mean, who to look for!  But thanks for playing with me.  It gets really boring around here, when I'm the only mouse around.

Do you like my dress?  This really cool lady named Charlotte made it for me.  Oops.  That's a little white lie, and I've got to be really good so Santa will come and see me Christmas Eve, so here's the truth...Charlotte really didn't make the dress for me.  I 'borrowed' it from one of the dolls in her booth.  Charlotte sews all kind of things!  Hot pads, toys, books, doll clothes and stuffed animals, too.  If you think my dress looks pretty in the picture, then you just gotta see it in person.  It's too die for!

Well, I better scoot.  It's almost time for Mike and Brenda to arrive to open the store.  Until next time, it's me, Vinnie Mouse, saying, "Au revoir!"
