Does anyone else take their doodles to see Santa?

[Katie, John & Parker pup]

Today was Parker's first Santa visit...he loved it! Got all excited and jumped all over his head and knocked his hat off! lol

Thought it would be fun for everyone to share their Santa photos here as well!

[Ricki and Tara (doodle)]

Love this one!

[Barbara Burrows]

Cute pictures!                                                                                                                                                  Last year was our last year for pictures with Santa.  Abby pulled his beard off three times before they could take a picture.

haha! Too funny! Parker knocked Santa's hat off and sat on his shoulders but this Santa was game for it so they all enjoyed it and thought he was great!

[F, Calla & Luca]

Everyone looks great except Santa who looks not so happy, but the doodles are super!

[Leigh & Allie]

I mentioned it last night to my DH and son. They thought it was too funny then my son suggested that he dress up as Santa and take a picture with Allie. I thought it was a GREAT idea, but since I was "forcing" him to go to a 7th grade dance last night, I thought I better not push my luck. Here is the funny thing......he said the reason he did not want to go is because he heard from 2 kids that there would be "grinding" going on. Boy......do I need to do some more research.

[Katie, John & Parker pup]

OMD! lol I don't blame him for not wanting to go to the dance! haha they start that "dirty dancing" early now! Haha he's not at that stage yet I guess! That would be cute if he dressed like Santa though! We took Parker to a place called Pet Goods here because they give you a free printed photo in a card...free is my kinda picture! lol (they gave us two though because they thought he was so funny!)

[Nancy, Ned, Clancy, and Charlie]

My kids refused to go to any dances but the proms when they were in high school.

I am going to jump in here and say that as a former HS teacher who is definitely OLD SCHOOL, the grinding thing is pretty crazy and your kids are right not to go if it makes them uncomfortable. They have no choice but to dance that way due to peer pressure. It has ruined dances for many kids. I went to a private birthday party to pick up my son who was 16 at the time and I was shocked to see what they were doing. (Let's just say that if they were dogs, the girls would all have been pregnant....) My son told me that he thought that the guys liked the "grind" because having the girl facing away from you makes it easier to think of her as a "piece of meat". He didn't like it one bit!

[Ike, Renee and Gracie]

We haven't taken Gracie to see Santa but she's walking with 20 other dogs in the Christmas lighting parade tomorrow night. She will be wearing her Land's End red vest and we've attached red and green battery operated lights.

We've posted a couple pictures to our page wearing her vest! :)

Happy Holidays!

[Jennifer and Jack]

Jack has gone to see Santa twice, how else would Santa know what Jack wanted.??????? This is Jack's third Christmas. I am hoping that we can go to Pet Smart after my dad leaves so around the 19th, which is the last day Santa is at Pet Smart for the season.

 

This year, Jack and Molly will hopefulyl go together, Our Santa stunk last year, his beard was falling off and it looks like he is choking the crud out of Jack to get Jack to look at the picture, I will post a picture when I get back to my house.

 

I will not be buying Jack any presents this year, well just a few.. LOL my mom bought him a ton. I got Molly some.  Pictures to come

 

[Katie, John & Parker pup]

lol I bought too many presents for Parker but I feel like he needs more stocking stuffers! lol...he only has one bag of cookies and an antler for his stocking! Spoiled! I don't have children so he is my child for now! Well even when I do, I will still spoil him!

[Paul & Michele]

We do!  We call them our fur kids.  We took our kids and fur kids to see Santa on Thursday so they could get their picture taken for their Doodle Card this year.  Here is one of the pics from last year Molly had to check him out to make sure he was the real Santa before she posed like a good doodle for her card picture....
