Preparing for the holidays

The picture is Shakespeare in last year's holiday pajamas. 

As we're getting ready for the holidays, I've been thinking through holiday card scenarios with  Shakespeare and Romeo - dressed as elves, wearing holiday pajamas, etc. While it's not yet Thanksgiving, I thought I would get a leg up on taking pictures and possibly making a holiday video with the animals. Now I need to think of a possible storyline for the video. 

Today it was 75 degrees out - very odd for November in Chicago but who am I to complain? I'll take it over the cold, wet weather we were having in October. So we went to Target, bought a bunch of holiday supplies and now I just need to plan it all out. I'll probably start releasing Shakespeare's new Christmas/Holiday pictures and videos starting the day after Thanksgiving. I have a strong belief in keeping Christmas confined to a finite calendar or else it takes some of the special out of the holiday if it lasts too long. 

We'll probably shoot our new footage and pictures in our new bedroom as well (we've been spending the weekend painting the bedroom and we're finishing up with the ceiling today). 

Have you done any holiday planning yet? Has any holiday pet attire caught your eye? Please share your stories and details in the comments section below. Happy pre-holidays!

Well, the truth of the matter is that I don't like clothes of any kind. Just give me my fur, thank you very much. BUT... I am thinking that Shakespeare looks very, very handsome in his blue jammies!

Thanks Georgia! You are quite beautiful and don't need jammies or holiday attire so your fur suits you just fine! :-)
