he's making a list, checking it twice...

So Penny and her friend, Buddy, got to meet Santa this last weekend and have their picture taken with him at the Escondido Humane Society (see post below). It was so much fun and the pictures turned out great.

Penny and Buddy have been very good this year, so I suspect Santa will be bringing them what they asked for!

12/4--Pet Photo with Santa

On Saturday, December 4th the Escondido Humane Society will be holding an event where your pet can get their photo taken with Santa! How fun! Their website says, "Santa himself will be making a special visit to the Escondido Humane Society to bring good tidings and holiday cheer to animals in need at our Pet Photos with Santa and Holiday Boutique. Whether naughty or nice, all pets can meet Santa and have their photo taken with him. For a $10 donation to EHS, you will receive a keepsake 4x6 photo; for an additional $10 you can get a CD with the digital files, just in time to create holiday cards with the entire family. Those who don't have pets but still want to bring joy to homeless animals can stop by our Holiday Boutique and bake sale, where gifts for dogs and cats and homemade presents for people and pets will be available. Pet Photos with Santa and Holiday Boutique is from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Dec. 4 at EHS, 3450 E. Valley Parkway. Appointments can be made by calling (760) 888-2235, but walk-in (and wag-ins!) are welcome." What a great cause!
