Snapshots From Christmas

My Christmas was pretty calm, pretty quiet. No big celebrations with tons of family. That is what sucks when Christmas falls right smack dab in the middle of the work week, you can't justify the flight prices to go home for essentially just one day. So I hung around D-Town, went to Klyde Warren Park to practice with my camera, opened up some of the sweetest presents ever from Becca and Magen, oh and of course dressed up the pups in outfits they didn't want to be wearing! 













Oh and for anyone asking, yes I got some sweet sweet sweet new straw glasses for Christmas. #DrinkMoreWater2014



How was your Christmas?! 

Oh and on another note, since so many people (*cough* except me *cough*) are off of work, I'm canceling Fan Friday for tomorrow, we will pick back up on Jan 3rd!

  1. Merry Christmas. Mine was about as low key as yours but I did not handle it so well. Glad it's over and I can stop feeling sorry for poor ole me in Germany.

  4. These pictures are lovely! So sorry you weren't able to head home though! I am glad that I'm not the only one who tortured their pup with festive outfits.. my girl wasn't happen when she got stuck in a reindeer outfit on Christmas Eve! ;)

    To sum things up: You look gorgeous, you're outfit is amazing, you're dogs are the cutest, and lastly what kind of lens are you using on your camera in the pictures with the bokeh in the background? Love it!
