First Impression: Asleep on the couch. But Riley, I don’t think you have anything to worry about. After all, she brought up Kade. And there are pancakes.
Both parents will love Riley! They’ll have someone who can understand their son, and translate for them, and still hold a ‘normal’ conversation with them. 🙂 Kinda like another Nicole, but one who’s not Kade’s sister, or cousin. 😉 🙂 🙂
I’m so glad I read this on my phone. I was zoomed in so I was just as caught off guard by Kade’s mom being there as Riley was. Excellent misdirection by keeping her just out of frame.
Hmm, come to think of it, the red shirt kinda gives it away that it’s not one of the others, also that color red and the burnt gold color seem to be her favorites looking back in the archives with a purple tank top making an appearance here and there when she shows up in childhood strips, she’s actually wearing red during most the adult appearances except Halloween (when the shirt changes to orange).
I might be over-analyzing this with running on 2-hours of sleep in 6 hours, but whatever, fun facts I noticed cause the red shirt gave me an odd sense of deja-vu.
Well I guess they both known each other since one or two years and never presented their parent each other, but yeah, if they are just friends, I dont see why it would be weird meeting them in christmas, either
I am going crazy here. What is on Rick’s sweater? I mean I was able to figure out Nicole had Isabelle on hers but I am losing it trying to figure out Rick’s.

I know the sweaters are basically impossible to see, but for the record:
Kade – Super Mario Bros Super Show with “Hey, Paisanos”
Riley – Classic Spyro
Rick – Dragonzord eating a candy cane
Nicole – Isabelle holding assist trophy “””

I’m assuming the joke is that she’s in a different place in her and Kades relationship and was not expecting to meet the parents like this.
Yup. Oo.
Poor Riley, she’s so adorable
Agreed. ^^
It’s not weird. She makes pancakes. Pancakes solve all weird situations.
Pancakes
Waffles
Yeah; mice are good. 😉 Or was that ‘possum?..
Or crêpes. <3
OMG CRAPES!
That’s really cute!! I hope they get along swimmingly!

It should be ” parents’ ” in the last panel, not “parent’s”. (Unless “Dad” died offscreen since his last appearance.)
The mugs of Pac Man and NiGHTS INTO DREAMS! AWESOOOOOOOOOME!
Kade’s mom is so sweet.
“Riley ? Are you awake ?” ……….. At least , she hasn’t responded “hadouken” as Kade does
But i agree with Riley : so weird to meet the parents during christmas . Not even a “warning” from Nicole or Kade before
It’s a surprise Christmas present for Mom! 🙂
I doubt that is a surprise for Mom : http://www.savestatecomic.com/2017/11/grandpuppies/
X3
It’s not she made breakfast for JUST Kade and Riley. As Rick said, it’s not weird at all.
Ok, I would like to point out that this is Kade & Nicole’s house. I don’t think Rick lives there so who else parents turn would it be?
Sorry, I’m reading it wrong. Its the parent turn to have Christmas at kade & Nicole’s house.

Why’s that weird? I mean, not telling her is weird, but meeting her on christmas isn’t weird.

Puncake!
I literally thought Kade’s mom was actually Kade! lol
The fact that Mom’s just so **** happy to say “here’s cocoa, I made pancakes, go talk to your friends” and doesn’t even bat an eye is ADORABLE!
I may have just developed cavities~
Merry Pancakemas!
I think this is my favorite one so far.
Haha! My Mom made pancakes for lunch on Christmas. The comic predicted my future!
Does this means you’ll get soon a dachshund named Riley as girlfriend ? XD
You’re saying poor Cyus’ new girlfriend is going to be a ‘real dog’? Shame! 😉
That would be awkward, considering my wife and all…
Wait… what happened to the grenade
It all depends on what kind of pancakes. If its alfalfa and grass pancakes that makes it totally OK.

Tim says it just below the strip of the previous page ^_^”
Oh…well it’s still hard to see. And do you know how many letters are there?! I don’t have time for all that reading!

Hey, as long as Mom doesn’t start asking about when she can expect puppies…

I think Riley think she and Kade are togther (bad eng)…
I haven’t been this excited for the next strip of a comic in a while.
Maybe it’s because I had pancakes for breakfast.
Love it pacman mug and nights into dreams mug
yay pancakes 😀
