My oldest brother is now at home with his second daughter. Their flight will be tomorrow and hopefully, the weather will permit them to fly. It is gloomy for a couple of days now and flights coming here and leaving our city have been cancelled. My son is not yet home. My big brother is seated at the left side; his daughter is at the right side, my sister is the one in yellow shirt, while I took the picture in my phone. As you might have noticed, our house is not arranged as a house/living room per se, because the 11 dogs just climb in the sofa and other chairs, and run around that we worry if the Christmas tree and the Nativity scene might be disarranged by them. But it is nice I have my 2 oldest siblings. By tomorrow though, I will be with my sister and son at home; the 3 of us for Christmas.

It’s not easy maintaining a home with 11 dogs.

@m_audrey6788 oh, sorry. that should be 11 digs. i might have pressed the number 2 because the keyboard is not well-lit, that is why i have many errors in spelling and grammar. it should be 11.

it is only in proper scheduling of activities that we are able to handle the 22 dogs against 3 persons at home.

11 dogs is quite a handful

You have many dogs, it's not easy to have decorations around. Your sister looks "grumpy".
