While The Girl's Away



Hi everyone, Katie here.

While Glogirly is away, you-know-who is going to play! Thanks to my Secret Paws (Tiger Lily, Zeke & Sushi) and thanks to Santa the big guy himself, I've got lots of cool new toys to play with.

I thought it would be fun to take a little time out from my staycation to talk with you, my extra special blogging friends. So many of you left very touching comments on my Merry Merry Christmas blog about Gabe the Marine. I thought you might like to get to know him a little better. When I first started out my blog I did a little feature on him that I think you might enjoy.

Just click HERE to take a peek!

Pee. S. Gabe has been promoted since my blog feature on him from Private First Class (PFC) to Lance Corporal. That's LCpl Gabe to those of you in the know. He is also an "Expert" marksman. Best to stay out of his way I guess.


Semper Fidelis

  1. Katie, thanks for telling us about Gabe. We can see why Glogirly and Gloman are so proud of him!

    And give Gabe a big headbutt from us, okay? Being a Marine and defending our country is a pretty cool thing...

  11. Gabe is awesome. Our Grandfather was a Marine, so we know how proud you must be of Gabe, because we were sure proud of our Grandfather.

    We hope Gabe stays safe throughout his time in the Marine Corps and nothing but good things come to him.

    We look forward to hearing about Glogirly and Gloman's ski trip, but mostly we want to know if you spent some time with Glogirly's Jimmy Choo's while she was away?

  16. Wow! Gabe looks like he could be a model for Marine recruitment posters. Is he?
    Our family prays every day for America's men and women in uniform. It is the very least we can do for those who put themselves in harms way to keep us safe.

    Hope you all get some snuggle time soon, and leave some furs on all his stuff.
