The girls and Ritchi (can't forget about the lonely boy

) along with the hoofed critters wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and best wishes for 2009!

ohh, and here are a couple of pictures that they were embarrassed about!!!

Moxie sporting their new outfit (I think it was the lights on the antlers that embarrased her

)

And Jane wearing her town cousin's (my sister's mini schnauzer) new shirt

Jane was caught helping my year old niece get cookies out of the cookie jar one day...so I thought this was apropos!

edited because it doesn't want me to put in the short form for Best Puppy In Show Specialty, because the last 3 letters (PI SS) spell a 'bad' word!!! LMAO

If I said I trained them, would you believe me?

LOL

umm, it was luck really. We took about 25-30 pictures (thank goodness for digital), and that was THE only picture that turned out...mind you it is a horrible shot of me (though it was also about 11:45 PM, and I have a horrible cold right now and my sinuses were all stuffed up....), but at least the dogs look good!

I am literally forcing Delilah to stay put....and you can't see it, but I have my hand under Lainey's belly to keep her where she is. Moxie was supposed to be sitting up, but was pouting, so I'm just happy she looked UP at the camera (they're worse than kids you know?)!!!! Jane kept jumping down off the hearth after about 2 shots, so my Mom (who was getting 'ears') was putting her back in place, Dad was taking the picture, and Ritchi wasn't sure what the heck was going on. And if you raise your voice at all, even if it has a happy tone to it, he just withers.....poor guy....so he was a bit worried...and Mom was talking to them funny trying to get expression....but then he WOULDN'T give expression. Anyways, it's a good shot regardless!

Ask sfmini what it took to get the shot of Moxie and the 4 girls when we were in Kentucky earlier this year!!! LOL Now THAT was tricky!!!
