12 Days Of Christmas

Henry

Well, weren't you all in your Christmas glory and creativity last week! OBPers really came together to compile the new lyrics to the 12 Days Of Christmas! We wanted to be sure that it got put together all in order and share our appreciation of the community driven input from you all! Christie Schade started it with a pugtridge in a peartree. Then Sue VDB, Martha and Chuckie all chimed in and along the line the pugtridge in a pear tree turned into QP in a pear tree. It played out a lot through the day and showed that OBPers have a super creative side!

As we were writing for the upcoming week, we wanted to include the final cut and at that point, the lyrics had kind of faded out at 8. So, we thought we'd complete the last 4. Thus in order from 12 to 1, we have the complete song as Christie said, bring it home, and home we brought it!

12 Legs a scurrying
11 Poopy bags
10 Black tshirts ruined
9 Nights a snoring
8 Perfect Head Tilts
7 Squeaky Toys
6 Favorite Treats
5 Ny-La Bones
4 Chewy Sticks
3 Chinese Pugs
2 Shared Pug Beds and a QP in a pear tree

But no sooner than we thought we finished the last 4 lyrics, we saw that Christie actually finished it off herself! This was the final version after Christie's final edits:

12 little pug paws
11 puggies snoring
10 pieces of pugkin bread
9 pug peeps dancing
8 perfect head tilts
7 squeaky toys
6 favorite treats
5 Ny-La boonnzzz
4 chewy sticks
3 Chinese pugs
2 shared pug beds
and a QP in a pear treeeeee

Another day later, Chuckie offered another alternate version!

12 hours a-sleeping
11 hours a-napping wink
10 Robin stories
9 magic windows
8 perfect head tilts
7 squeaky toys
6 favorite treats
5 Ny-La boonnzzz
4 Chinese pugs (ie, Hank/Luna/Benny/Sol)
3 shared pug beds
2 loving peeps
and a QP in a pear treeeeee!!

Even though we think the number of pug beds should be given a higher number (said the dog bed junkies!) any and all of these renditions reflect that of Pug Life! We could not be happier to have an extended family such as team OBP! May this holiday season bring you a fraction of the joy as you all bring to us! If it does, you will be smiling non-stop!

Christie, thank you for staring this off.  It was fun to see all the various versions.

Ok, so I thought we ought to put in more dog beds too, but the song had just started.  How about 11 pug beds, and 3 bags of treats. This is just too much fun.

What a fun post this has been and I delight everyday in reading the posts. There are those posts that bring tears some of joy others of pain & sorrow-we share, we support, we laugh and we grieve together. The OBP peeps have created a most warm & welcoming place!

Love OBP land…one big puggie extended family. All the versions were amazing!

Hope is home and she is The Tiniest little puggie lady I’ve ever seen!  She’s beautiful and cuddling up to her older brother already! I’ll try and post a pic this week.

Merry pugmas!!!!

You’re welcome Sue, I didn’t know I would be starting anything but I have to say that I’m awfully glad I did!!! Now all we need is a big Christmas bash where we all get together and sing all three versions!  My day would not be complete without my daily dose of OBP! Suppose you don’t have to be blood to be family:) BTW…looks like Henry is saying “there better be something for me underneath that tree!!!”...smile

Heather, I have been thinking about you all weekend.  Sounds like you, Cole and Hope had a fantastic weekend.

Love the 12 Days of Pugmas much better than the 12 Days of Christmas. Somehow over the years when I hear the old version I think of Shirley Jones up in a tree. (Maybe I’m not normal) Anyway I love OBP and all the sweet people on here. It really would be nice for us all to meet.
Heather, so happy for you and Hope. She is a very blessed puggy.
