Santa in His Sleigh

This is one of the scenes from the same house as the last two posts. There were so many really beautiful little scenes at this house that it made it difficult to pick just a few.

This one is for the child in all of us. It's too bad that we had to grow up. Think of all the memories we had as children. Is it really bad to tell our children these stories?

The latest trend is telling us that we lie to our children when we tell them about Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, and the Tooth Fairy. Don't you think they're missing out on one the greatest things about being a child? I don't understand these trends. Yes, it's dishonest, but don't we like to remember the good times we had as children. How many of us distrust our parents because they told us these stories. Why rob them of that.

Sharefest Event

Last week, I had the pleasure of participating in the Largo Sharefest Event at the Northeast Paw Playground.

I photographed dogs with Santa. I had a lot of fun after I realized that these dogs were all obedience trained. It was a first time for me. I worried that the dogs would be unruly and possibly bite Santa. The worry was all for nothing. The shoot went well, and all the dogs behaved.

This is my favorite photo from the shoot. The pooches name is Auggie Doggie, and he didn't seem to mind being on Santa's lap at all.

Let me know what you think!
