You can just tell how embarrassing some animals find it to be dressed up as Santa’s little helper. But they’re so cute! If you want a good laugh, check out the Christmas section of “lol-cats”. I laugh until I cried, and then I laugh some more. The text for the dog image is from this site. Photo by studioportosabbia

Gingerbread Christmas decorations are fun to make, beautiful to look at, and a joy to eat! Today I’m having my friends over, we’re going to make a gingerbread house and some hearts to hang in the windows. It’s a bit early, but I want to have some decoration ready since it’s the first sunday of advent tomorrow. In Norway the first sunday of advent marks the beginning of “Christmas preparation time”, what’s the tradition in your country, or in your family?

If you haven’t already, why not print and send somebody a Christmas card today? On paper or electronic, it’s a great way to brighten up someone’s day!

I like the illustrations from shekoru!
