12/25/11 Christmas & Pets: 2011

The Christmas holiday I celebrated in
Kewanee, IL this past Sunday...

On Christmas Day, we all open up gifts from our family. As part of our family tradition our pets also open up gifts as well. So this year, I decided I'd capture some of these moments with my Canon EOS 7D to illustrate just how even your pets can enjoy the Christmas holiday as well. This was also my kitten's (Thunder's) first Christmas as well so I was curious of how he'd react to a new cat toy. I've posted a few photos from a few days ago of the Christmas holiday below:

Thunder: One crazy, but cute kitten!
My ornament on the Christmas tree...
A cat tunnel you see in many pet stores
creating an interesting photo-op...

Angel: She's getting eager to open her gift I'd say!
He still plays fetch...
Another Christmas ornament shot...
Another great shot!
Indiana, our yellow lab opening
his Christmas gift!

Luigi, posing with his Christmas gift (bottom)...
And another cute shot!
This one took some patience to get the Christmas tree
in the (background) with Angel in the

(foreground), but as you can see it

was worth the effort...
Another shot of "trouble-maker"!
Thunder opening his gift...
Angel opens her gift and I guess she enjoys it?!
One last shot of my goofy kitten...

I'm currently working on another post as I ended up photographing the East Peoria, IL Festival of Lights last night. Stay tuned for that update in the next few days.
