Merry Christmas!!

Most people dream of sandy beaches, palm trees, pools, sunbathing and other fun activities during the hottest months of the summer. Usually these months are July and August. This girl right here starts planning the biggest mail spamming event that happens only once a year. (Unless I have a birth announcement to send out).

Our Christmas card.

Now some people just leave this until the last minute, find an OK family picture or maybe a good picture of the kids and get a photo that says happy whatever, love us. Not me. Nope. I start scouring the internet for creative family portrait ideas because I always feel I have to top my last card. 

Then in the fall the photo sites start releasing their card stock and I lurk the interwebs until I find the right one on a site that I can use multiple coupon codes. This year I saved ninety dollars!!

Honestly, it is a small fortune that I drop on my cards but I love them. I love our little family and although most of my family and friends are on facebook, there is just something about getting that card in the mail. Yep, I am still thinking about you. 

This year, my friend who is an amazing photographer outdid herself with our family photos. What is even more amazing was that the card that I had picked out months before matched perfectly to the almost dozen photos I crammed on the card. Clearly, it was fate. 

So here it is. Our Christmas Card. I am in love. Now to drop mass amounts of money on canvas prints of all these amazing photos.
