Christmas Card Picture Day

So now that the Christmas cards are out in the mail, I thought I would share some of the fun we had trying to get just the right photo.
The girls were great.
The ground was muddy.
The "props" were abundant (and heavy!),
and amazingly Daddy held it together without one bit of grumpiness!
Take a look at my little angels... oh how I wish they would stay small forever!

Love these girls.
Love these outfits.

Grrr... trying to get them to look at the camera.
Impossible.

Or stop laughing.... impossible.

My favorite picture.
Daddy trying to adjust them for the picture.
Poor little ones had to sit there with the glass candy jars without moving while mommy tried to get a picture.




Each girl wanted some time "alone" with the camera.
Absolutely. Go for it cuties.


Charlie wants to wear this skirt everyday now.
Seriously, who wouldn't?

I'm sure you know that I wouldn't let the girls wear these new shoes before "picture day."
God forbid, they get a scuff. Steve would make me go buy more. LOL...

Gonna frame this one.
I don't know why.
I love it though.
(Truth? Probably gonna frame a lot actually)
Sugar and spice.
Can you tell which one is which?

Spice.



Sugar.

Ahhh, just kidding. They are both sugary sweet!



"I'm sooo over this mom. I'm outta here!"




Merry Christmas to our friends and family.
We live a blessed life and are so glad you are a part of it!
