Almost Christmas!

2015 Wreath-m

Raisin is excited to begin decorating for Christmas but she’s having trouble rounding up volunteers among the big people of the household.

Birch heard the word “swashbuckle” and it brought to mind a problem she was having with her weapons.  They were getting caught on her sash.  The idea of a buckle and a belt seemed a grand solution… so she put me to work.151028-CD288931-m

Swashbuckler

151028-CD288926-mIn the summer of 2015 there was an event near the ocean in Oregon.  Piracy arose and pirates emerged.  One of them followed me home.  She is Birch the Cabin Boy.  She has disguised herself as a boy in order to join the pirate band lead by Back from the Dead Red – a bloodthirsty and stylish female pirate.  Birch is not exactly bloodthirsty but she does have an eye for a fine weapon.
