Wow! So much happened in December! Mommy went to her graduation ceremony, while Greta and I watched the online livestream from home. I was a little under the weather so we decided to do a private ceremony for me. After graduation, Mommy went to Disney with Auntie Shannon, Uncle Jamison, and Auntie Sara. Mommy said doggies couldn’t go to Disney and that I would not like all of the crowds and lines. She’s probably right, but I WAS upset that I wasn’t allowed to go to Bern’s Steakhouse! I mean, I am royalty AND a dogtor! Who do these people think they are? It’s ok though because Mommy brought us back some Chateaubriand and Gingerbread for dessert! It was YUMMY!

Here's Mommy graduating with her Ph.D.!

I'm a Dogtor!!!
After you graduate, you HAVE to ride the bull!
Tams of the Dogtor and the Doctor!
My sissy, Greta, cheering me on! She is an ace reporter!

Mommy surprised me with a luncheon with my doggy group friends! I have missed them soooo much! Mommy made a special table just for me! I got to wear my regalia again and sissy got to wear her USF spirit shirt, green crystal necklace, and USF collar bow. We had a great time celebrating and socializing.

Sophia's Dogtoral Dogploma!

Christmas came and went before we knew it! I didn’t have any presents to unwrap, but Mommy says sissy and I have a brand-new bed ramp waiting for us at home in Kentucky! A woodworker in Missouri custom made it to fit our bed! Now I won’t hurt my back on the stairs. Mommy said it cost a lot of money, so I better like it and use it! I know I will! Mommy said I’ll end up in wheels if I don’t start being more careful. I don’t know what she is on about. I’m only 13!

Grammy made a very beautiful Christmas tree for our graduation!

To wrap up the celebrations, Mommy, Grammy, Greta, and I went to U-le-le for a Pre-New Year Brunch with our doggy group! The sun was out and it was warm. I LOVED it! We had gourmet chicken and we got to see all of our friends again! I was sad to leave, but Mommy assures me we will be back to visit. After all, Grampy and Grammy are in Florida and we have to come to visit them!!!

I wear the crown well!
Greta, ready to pawty!

Well, that’s it for now! Stay tuned for more adventures!

Luvs and Lix,

Sophia
