Three little pugs that are pretty sure they are Santa's good list.
We have a super busy week ahead, so rather than not posting, I am just going to share pictures of Benjamin, Henry & Luna. No stories until sometime soon after the first of the year. Sorry for the lack of detail. Hopefully, the pictures will be worth a 1,000 words

All that posing done for their holiday cards really tired the pugs out.

Last weekend we took the annual holiday family photo. As much as I love taking pictures, can I just tell you how much I dread taking this photo?
First, it is always done under a time crunch because we need to get the cards printed and mailed out. Second, it is hard to get Benjamin, Henry and Luna to look at the camera. Throw in the cat and it is pretty much impossible. Thirdly, come Christmas card photo shoot time, Benjamin becomes the most fidgety, lickey pug he could possibly be. In every picture he is either licking his nose, yawning or facing the wrong direction. It has become a yearly tradition for him.
To make things easier this year, we thought we would use the cat perch and give everyone a square (in true Brady Bunch style). This was a tremendous help as it cut down on the amount of wandering. It still didn't guarantee that everyone was looking at the camera, but at least we kept them all in one place. 249 photos later we determined we had a decent shot and we were ready to send the cards to the press.

Luna is wrapped and ready to be put under the tree.
Over the weekend, we went shopping for holiday presents for a shelter pet that we sponsored. The best part about it was that on our shelter pet's wish list was a dog bed! Well, needless to say that was the first thing on the list I bought.

While Luna proudly wears her hat, she has a hard time sitting still for the camera. She loves to walk right up to the lens. Sometimes, she also forgets which end is her best side.

Until we brought out the treats, Henry was throwing a little tantrum. He was upset that his Halloween costume once again had a hat. Almost every Halloween costume he has ever worn included a hat. He wants to know when he can get a costume that does include a hat?

I know Halloween is over and it is pretty much full steam ahead to Thanksgiving and Christmas, but I wanted to share some of the outtakes from our Halloween photos. I snapped over 400 pictures to get the few gems that I posted last week.
Most of Ben's funny pics involved him wearing his hat on his chin. He seemed much happier with it there. Although, he did try to wear it on the side of his head for a bit too.
