We're sharing a fond look back to ‪ Christmas‬ past of 2012, when all ‪ FiveSibes‬ had a surprise visit from ‪ Santa‬ ! How excited they were! Gibson bestowed his famous Gibbie kisses on the jolly ol' elf! What a wonderful, magical Christmas that was! My...how time flies... From all of us here at the FiveSibes, we wish you all a very Merry Christmas, full of love and special memories. "Life is only traveled once; today's moment becomes tomorrow's memory. Enjoy every moment..." ~Unknown     Flashback Fridays are brought to you by us - the FiveSibes - and our co-host, Love is being owned by a Husky , each Friday. We hope you'll find a photo or video from Memory Lane, post it, and link up to our Blog Hop each week! If you don't catch it on Friday, you can link up any time during the week! To catch our past Flashbacks, just enter "Flashback Friday" in the search box. We hope you'll come join us! We are...

Jing, jing, jing-a-ling..."It's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you!"  Now that Christmas Day is past, before Santa headed back up to the North Pole for a long, deserved rest before he starts to plan all his dog toy making for next Christmas, he had a whole bunch of our beautiful furpals from around the world join us with him on a fun and festive sleigh ride! One of my favorite FiveSibes & Friends videos from the holiday seasons 2011! Sit back, kick your feet up, grab a peppermint stick and hot cocoa, some healthy minty dog treats, snuggle in with your furpal(s), and enjoy our Sleigh Ride! And now that Santa is back home getting ready for Christmas 2015, and before he takes a nice long rest ~ what better way to relax than a sleigh ride with not his reindeer, but his other favorite animal - Huskies! (Of course Santa knows how to travel!) And to sum up the season is this beautiful photo graphic by Brad Johnson, Northern Lights Sled ...

This is a flashback to last year, but we just love it when Santa Paws came and visited our FiveSibes and how excited they were to see him (ahem - her, Kat, one of the wonderful receptionists at our vet's office!) that we just had to share again! We hope all our furpals and their families are having a wonderful Christmas Eve and that Santa Paws is very good to all! And don't forget to take a few minutes to play "Santa" by visiting your local shelter or rescue sometime during the holiday season to bring some cheer (and treats and toys) to homeless dogs who could use some cheering up this holiday season until they have a family of their own! Ho! Ho! Ho!
