Our Christmas Puppers!
« on: December 14, 2008, 05:17:10 PM »
We took the 3 hounds to have their pics taken with Santa today...







No headshot of Darlene, she would not have it!  :-)

Man I feel like a crappy parent now.

I didn't even take my KIDS to get photos with Santy Klaus. :(

Awwwww!  :)  thanks for sharing.  I love it when y'all post pics of the greyt greys. It's fun to take the PETS to get pics taken with Santa Claus...

When I  was a kid, we took our parrots (Pepper the green-wing macaw, and a military macaw named Pickle who we eventually gave to a family friend) to a vet's office that had a photo session set up. Santa (the vet himself, I'm pretty sure), had absolutely no problems with them, surprisingly.  Pepper and Pickle KNEW they had to behave if they wanted new toys for their cages for Christmas. :p

I'll ask my mom if she knows where that photo is now.  It was so cute!

It was like herding cats to get all 3 of them to hold still at one time. Either Blue lay down, Darlene lay down or tried to run away or Xena would look away. Xena actually behaved the best. I thought she'd be frightened when the Santa lifted her front paws onto his lap, but she was fine. Darlene kept trying to get away, as she saw other dogs near her.

There was a greyhound pup and she wanted to play with her. It was only 17 weeks old.

Merry Christmas, Schade and to everyone else. I've finally started the decorating. The tree is up but no ornaments on it yet. Have been very disorganized this Christmas.

My Christmas shopping is woefully behind! Luckily for me I can pay through the nose on ebay for Avatar action figures (Aang, Sokka, and Katara  :mental:). I remember one Christmas, I had to find a Chip Hazard Small Soldier action figure - ended up buying from someone in the UK.  :lmao: Oh the special requests I get from my kids!

Now I am contemplating getting 25 DVD collection of the Get Smart Series ostensibly for my husband... but it is I who desires it.  :-)

In other good news, I got a 30% off everything coupon from Kohls. Sometimes I get lucky and find stuff I like at Kohls, other times... MEH.


edit: The grammar and typos in the above post are horrendous, thank goodness noone is looking.  :evillaugh:

Of course folks are looking.  :-) I'm so tired that I can barely see, but haven't noticed any grammatical mistakes. I'm in that behind in everything Christmas frenzy, so not looking for typos.

About the only thing SR mentioned was some Drakkar cologne that he used to have. I can't find it anywhere. I guess I'll have to let google be my friend.

There are probably some vintage bottles on ebay for $150 or so a bottle plus a moderate $75 ship/hdlg chg.  :-)

Beautiful, beautiful greyhounds, SR!!!

My tree is up....but nothing's done with it but the lights.....it's a pre-lit tree. ::)

I am sooooo far behind...  :thatsright: :censored: :thatsright:
Just hand over the chocolate...back away slowly...far away....and you won't get hurt....

Save the Earth... it's the only planet with chocolate.

"My therapist told me the way to achieve true inner peace is to finish what I start. So far I've finished two bags of M&M's and a chocolate cake. I feel better already." – Dave Barry

A balanced diet is chocolate in both hands.

I won't put a tree up at my house, but still need to drag my mother's out of storage for her. She just has a small fiber optic jobby, so it wont take much effort. (I hope)
