Xmas Card Exchange -- Please Share Your Picture! UPDATED

[Lucy & AnnaBelle's Mom]

Listening to you all talk about starting to receive your Xmas cards always makes me so sad.  The reason that I never join the group is because the most stressful thing that I do all year is to try and get a descent picture for their Christmas Card.  I of course make it more difficult because I want there to be snow and I want my decorations up to try and use in the pictures.  I wait for the first snow, I take hundreds of pictures, and with each bad picture I stress a little more.  Always made more difficult because the snow will always come through the week, it is dark out by the time DH gets home, and I have to try and do these with two dogs by myself.  Finally, I decide that I've just run out of time and I have to use something that I have.  My girls aren't real cooperative when the camera comes out which makes it even more difficult.  Oh, and I forgot to mention I'm terrible with a camera.  So, I didn't get my pictures done in time to join a group, but I still wanted to wish all of you a Merry Christmas and share Lucy & Sophies card!  I've included 2 cards.  The one with both of them we will be using for the Residents and staff at the Ohio Veteran's Home and the one of just Sophie we will be using for the Patients and Staff at the Mercy Hospital where just Sophie visits!  I also still have a few that I haven't gotten done yet that will be for our Foster families.

 

So, I'd love to see some others even though I didn't get my act together in time to join!  Will you share with me.UPDATE:  I'm updating to include the picture I finally finished today for the families of the Doodles we fostered this year, along with the girls picture with Santa today!  Thanks so much to everyone for posting your pictures I'm having a great time seeing them!

thanks! morgan and maddie are quite a pair!!! They look like big cuddlebugs. Duncan is a miniature doodle (30lbs) but i watch a goldendoodle named Harry who is about 70 pounds and he loves to lean on me and sleep on my feet.

I LOVE your card!  I can't figure out how to copy my card to this post, but it's the same pictures as in the Smilebox I did earlier this week.

If it is Shutterfly, there is a page that says share and I clicked on that and copied. It took me a long time to get it right.

Laurie --- Love your card.  I can just see Sophie now if I tried to put antlers on her!

Great card....I just love Natalie's little boots!  I think Boca is "camera shy".

Boca isn't big into posing for the camera, but her head is NOT turned away from the camera.  It is turned toward a squirrel on a tree :-D  Her number one priority in life is keeping track of squirrels in the yard.  I swear she does it even from her crate.  Must have a security camera outside with a wireless connection to a  hidden tv in her crate.
