It's the time of hear Erik and I have our annual, um, "discussion" as we try to get our growing pack to sit still for a few minutes and take pictures. Here are some outtakes - I have no idea what the heck happened in this one, but the wreath wrapping is falling off, somehow Blitz's Christmas scarf got tucked up into Moto's neck, and Shiloh is sticking out his tongue. Please notice that Daisy looks nice and relaxed. She firmly believes that the camera is going to steal her soul, so before this picture was taken I ran the heck out of her so that she would be too tired to care. By the time I got the scarf back on, the dogs reassembled, here is the second try. 
WHAT THE HECK? I guess I was at the wrong angle, the damned wreath continues to sag, Daisy is trying to get the Heck out of Dodge, and long story short, these series of pictures sucks. So I go inside and try yet again. Unfortunately by this time Daisy has rested up and allowed her parania to take over, which brings us to the following photo:
This is a typical Daisy expression. I gave up that day. After about 50 takes I DID manage to get one decent photo, and it will make its way to you over the course of about a week. Getting five dogs to sit still, look at the camera, and look cute and in the same direction all at the same time is no small undertaking. I always enlist Erik's help during these photo sessions, which makes for a lot of interesting "talk". But it's over for this year, and I hope you enjoy your card and picture!
