Dear Journal:

Wow, what a week! I have had so much fun with my new friend Heather. First we went to the doctor's office so we could get our flu shots. I was really nervous at first, but Heather held my paw and kept me distracted. She was so proud of me that she decided to take me to the funnest place on earth, FUNSPOT!!!! Funspot is the world's largest arcade (just was put in the Guinness Book of World Records). She told me that her and Faith had been there last Summer. We had a blast playing ski-ball and guess what!? I won!!!! We went on the bumper cars, played air hockey and went candlepin bowling. We were so hungry afterwards that Heather treated me to pizza at Funspot's mini restaurant. That has to be one of my top favorite places in the world to go! The next day Heather had to work so I went with her friend David for the day. He owns a moving company and had to drive all the way down to Connecticut to do a move. I went along and kept him company. We had fun singing songs and playing the ABC game. I had never played the ABC game before. It started with me and I had to find a word on a road sign that began with the letter A, then it was his turn to find a word that began with the letter B, then I had C and so on and so on. It was very tricky when we got down to letters like Q, U, V, X, and Z. I have now been in three different states, New Hampshire, Massachusetts and Connecticut. On day three I went holiday shopping with Heather. She needed help picking out things for her younger sisters. We went to the Tanger Outlets in Tilton, NH. After shopping I was tired, I fell asleep in the car on the way home. Today David, Heather and I baked holiday cookies together. We made sugar cookies with homemade frosting and boy were they good! Especially with a glass of milk. As we ate the delicious cookies we watched Christmas movies on TV. To top off the night Heather and David took me for a drive down Edward Street in Laconia, NH. Everybody who lives on that street completely decorates their houses with lights, trees, Santa, snowmen, Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer and huge air inflated snow globes. It was AMAZING! I had never seen that many houses all decorated and lit up at once. Tomorrow I am off to a new friend's house, but I will always remember my fun time with Heather and David. Good Night...
