Karma as you can see by the picture has an adorable new red sweater dress with a Burberry skirt for the occasion. After we get the lay of the land, we will probably sing a song or two under some streetlight near or in Market Square to get warmed up, then we will meander over to the Mast store where we had the audacity to request an inside spot. The managers at Mast are actually excited about the dogs coming with us. Whether or not they like our singing remains to be seen. This is a serious gig for us (it is also our first and maybe our last) so we will try to be professional, except for that one part where we plan on all of us baying arf! arf! arf! instead of fa la la during "We wish you a Merry Xmas".
