Mama is not sure she will be able to get a good photo of us together for our Christmas photo. She took a few practice shots yesterday and these were the results.
Mama has been debating buying a new Christmas tree. She donated our old one last year when we moved. She found one she likes at the store and has been thinking about buying it. However, she is worried that Joey will mark it. He's been really good, but we haven't had a tree in our house. Someone threw an artificial wreath in the field next to our house and Joey loves to "mark" it. It's really making her wonder if she should chance a tree this year. Mama is really the only one who cares about a tree and decorations. I think they are just clutter and I bet Joey will think everything is a toy.

The Greyhound Who Hopes She Doesn't Have To Wear Antlers For Her Photo
Joey has a great smile (you too, of course)!!
ReplyDeleteMaybe you could get decorations that just go up on he walls or high shelves out of the way?
I had to wear antlers last year - so I feel your pain. I hope SHE doesn't have anything similarly awful lined up this year for a Christmas photo.
Love and licks, Winnie
I think even a bad photo of you two would look good. You guys look very similar to my Freedom and Casper. If your momma gets a really good shot, maybe I'll use it too...just teasing.
ReplyDeleteYou two are both so cute! No way will Mom give up having a Christmas tree here. I rather like it and do think it looks pretty.
ReplyDeleteMom took all our Christmas card pictures last weekend and they're already ordered! I can't wait to see them arrive here and how they look.

You could always get a smaller tree and put it on your dining/kitchen table. Can't wait to see the Christmas photo!
ReplyDeleteWhats Christmas without a tree?

A small, live, potted tree is a great alternative. You can put it on a small end table and decorate it and the table, or put it on a larger table if you want to put gifts beneath it. I've been doing it that way for years, since I have a tiny apartment and dogs that, while they won't mark the tree, would love to chew on all the branches.
ReplyDeleteAnd, you can then plant the potted tree in the yard each spring. Choose a different type of tree each year, and soon you will have a great row of shrubs and trees on the property, each of which has Christmas memories.
I second or third the potted tree idea, maybe a tabletop size? If decorations make you happy, you should do them.
ReplyDeleteI looooove Joey's smile. :D
And I want you to know that I'm a terrible commenter but I read your every post.
Hi Y'all,
ReplyDeleteMy Human has never had a tree inside for fear that my tail will destroy it.
Y'all come by now,

Scout, you match the tiles nicely, and Joey provides contrast.
ReplyDeleteYep, we agree. A tabletop tree is the way to go. Mom does a miniature tree with miniature ornaments. Of course, she has to put them somewhere where we won't get them because they sure do make fun toys for us kitties.
