I took them Christmas day with my new digital. Have fun.

Cute kitty, but where’s the photo of her in reindeer antlers or a Santa hat. It can’t truly be Christmas unless you’re embarrassing your pets by taking photos of them in costumes  
🙂

Emma is the absolute image of my Chloe, and Little Grey is very nearly the same as my Bilbo.

It was hard enough trying to get them to sit still for a photo, I wouldn’t even attempt to put hats on them. 😃

So that’s where you got your name from. For some reason I thought it had to do with Abba Eban. Note to self: try _reading_ people’s usernames instead of just glancing at them.

Cute critters, but a minor photgraphic tip. Get down to the cat’s eye level. Lie right down on your stomach. I’m not sure exactly why it works, but it does. It’s the difference between [this](http://s906.photobucket.com/albums/ac270/AbbyEmmaSasha/Kitty%20Pictures/?action=view&current=Emma-1.jpg) and [this](http://www.muppetlabs.com/~eric/maggie_13.jpg).

I want a cat.
