Remember my Rudy that was on the front porch dressed for Christmas last year?
He was there greeting friends and family with his red and black checked ribbon scarf.
Well he made the big time. He appeared this month in a magazine.
Rudy was featured in the issue of Country Sampler’s Christmas Decorating issue.
Rudy …. right there on Page 15.
Among the pages of wonderful Christmas decorating inspiration.
Rudy, the adorable reindeer that was a gift from my niece Melissa.
She saw him at a craft fair and thought he needed to be on my porch.
Here are a few photos of Rudy on my front porch last year.
If you missed my Christmas Porch of 2015, you can see it HERE.
We love Rudy … So happy to share Rudy with all of you. He puts a smile on the faces
of those who enter my home, thanks to my niece Melissa!
Now, I am thinking of the place of honor for him this year!
Any suggestions?
Have a most beautiful day!

Rudy’s career is wide open now (tee-hee!). Big congrats to you both. The hanging Xmas balls are a clever idea–love that! Hugs!
I love the ornaments hanging from the ceiling. I have a very small porch – no roof – and I just love what you did. I also love Rudy.
What fun. Your Rudy is going to be as famous as the other one. Congrats to you and Rudy.
