There is absolutely nothing in it for you except tidings of comfort and joy. And lots of squeeage.
I was thinking about doing the Twelve Days of Christmas leading up to the holiday, because as anyone who knows me will confirm I really just adore the holiday season. But a series of twelve with just Brody wouldn’t be near as much fun as incorporating anyone else who was game!
You would get one of the twelve days as an assignment, to interpret photographically in whatever manner you see fit. So “six geese a laying” could be “six treats a-eatin” or “six hounds a braying” or anything, really, and upload it to a flickr group I create or e-mail it to me.
Anyone up for it? (It’s open to any non-Christmas celebrating types too who just like sharing pictures of their awesome pets!)
OK: Here is the updated list:
12 Drummers Drumming- Lisa
Eleven Pipers Piping– Susan
Ten Lords a Leaping- Elizabeth
Nine Ladies Dancing- maybe Annette?
Eight Maids a Milking- wikith
Seven Swans a Swimming- Deb
Six Geese a Laying- Ashley
Five Golden Rings- Dr V
Four Calling Birds- Kari
Three French Hens- Darci
Two Turtle Doves- Rwan
and a Partridge in a Pear Tree- Dr V
Rwan Hardesty says
Learned and Enzo are up for it π Assign away!
Dr. V says
You can have any number you want save 1 and 5. You want 2 since you have 2?
Rwan Hardesty says
Perfect. SOrry, had a really long day these last couple days and didn’t get back on to check. 2 is perfect π
Darci says
TOTALLY up for it! I’ve got three kittens (Ava, Beast, and Cleo) I will willingly volunteer.
Dr. V says
OK, how about 3 then? Awesome!
Dr. V says
Hi Darci-
Just checking to see if you are still planning on doing the 3 kitty picture?
Dr. V says
Oops, ignore me- just checked Flickr! AWESOME!!
Ashley says
I’m in!
Dr. V says
Awesome! Thank you! Pick a number, any number, between 6 and 12. π
Dr. V says
OK never mind, I’m giving you 6. π
Ashley says
lol! 6 is perfect.
Darci says
SWEET!!! Number 3 it is…when do we need to be ready?
Dr. V says
Let’s see…I’m doing day one on the ninth. So the tenth, to give me time to get it up.
Deb Mendez says
I’ve got seven cats — perhaps a leaping –count me in, too!
Dr. V says
Would you like 7 (seven swans a swimming) or 10 (10 lords a leaping)?
Lisa W says
I’ll take 12!
Dr. V says
Sold! π You got the anchor date. Excellent.
Lisa W says
When’s your deadline? π
Dr. V says
If you’re taking 12, it wouldn’t be up until the 24th, but at least a day ahead to get it on the site.
elizabeth (morgan & mullys dogmom) says
ooohh we want to play!
Dr. V says
Great! I’m giving you 10. (keeping it random).
wikith says
Still room for another participant? I’ve got a cat and a dog, but am more than willing to provide many photos of each if that’s fine. The pup especially can be put into adorably humiliating circumstances.
Dr. V says
Great! I’m giving you 8.
Susan Montgomery says
I’m game! any numbers left?
Dr. V says
Yes! Nine. π
Deb Mendez says
Sorry — seven for me — I was sure there were seven lords a leaping — obviously I can’t remember the words! But I’ll figure out something appropriate!
Susan Montgomery says
Oh, make me the pipers piping instead, I have the perfect idea!
Dr. V says
ok!
Annette Frey says
Do you still need eleven pipers piping? Let me know. I’ll take it if you do.
Dr. V says
Can you take nine ladies dancing? I had a switch.
Annette Frey says
Sure. : ) On photo that reflects nine ladies dancing?
Dr. V says
Just nine somethings something.
