Cutest Christmas Gift Ever

I met my two friends Jackie and Joe for lunch yesterday. We exchanged Christmas gifts. My friend Jackie gave me the gift that you see in the picture. She has a niece who makes these custom painted mugs. I have to say I started to cry when I saw the one of my sweet Beau who died in September.
I wondered why she asked me what the breed was of my new dog Roscoe, I figure someone had asked her. No, she wanted to tell her niece what breed he was. I guessed terrier-pug. So left to right its Brie the pomapeek, Beau the peekapoo and Roscoe the terrier pug. I love them!! What a thoughtful friend.

Yes, I have to admit that I started to cry when I saw the one of my sweet Beau.

lol Then I would have had to supply a picture I suspect but she did good on the first two, Roscoe does not have Cairn terrier ears and his tail is longer but still, it was such a cute idea.

@rebelann I know right away I thought about my brother who lost one of his sheepdogs this year.

@m_audrey6788 I usually use the dishwasher as well but for these, I will handwash.

Thank you, the only thing is they have to be hand washed so I have to be careful to not destroy the pictures.

You couldn't have asked for a better gift! The thought and time that went into making those shows how valuable they are; not in terms of money, but in terms of sentiment!

@BelleStarr I'm glad you like them; otherwise, I would have to take them from you and keep them for myself! lol

@BelleStarr Wow, that is young. But if you have a particular talent it's usually evident right from an early age.
