Homeward-Bound Santa Claus

One last look before I put Santa Claus back in the box. From this day onward, he has to hibernate for a long time till it’s time for him to show up again: wearing his famous red dress, displaying his white beard and rosy cheeks, and heralding Christmas’ arrival with his ho! ho! and Christmas songs.

No more Christmas decorations everywhere I look. The cold breeze is the sole trace December has left behind, and this too will soon goes away as summer slowly takes over in the succeeding months.

Farewell Santa Claus.

Farewell cold morning.

Taking Puppy Pictures Without Spending a Pawful of Bucks

Those little paws, drooping ears, scattered spots and with their short legs making small paces, puppies explore their surrounding. I always have fun watching those small puppies. When my dog gave birth to three cute puppies, I decided to take puppy pictures when they are more than one month old. Since they’ll certainly grow up in the succeeding months, at least, I can have memories via photos of the way they used to look.

Before they grow bigger, I urged my sister to help me set up a place where we could let them walk or do whatever they please, while we were taking pictures.
