santa's little helper

after an unplanned break from the blogging world, i'm back.  not sure what the absence was about...perhaps the holidays got the best of my time.  but here i am again.  i hope all is well in all of your worlds.  i sure am enjoying december and the festiveness of the season!  since its the season for giving, here's a little holiday cheer for all of you (images and idea courtesy of david) :

a remarkable resemblance, huh?  our sadie has reminded us of santa's little helper since the day she came to live with us.  the likeness is uncanny really.  around this time of year, that nickname of hers gets used a lot on our house!

happy holidays!
