It's the Most Wondeful Time...


I don't know about you, but I eagerly anticipate planning for our family's Christmas photo!!
I have been known to dress the children in their finery 3, um maybe 4 times 2 times in order to capture the perfect moment.
While there are only a few tears shed, the final product is usually pretty sweet!
Even if I'm the only one who thinks so!
Unwrapping the frustration
exhilaration of getting the "perfect" Christmas photo!
Head on over to Emily at Chatting at the Sky to see what everyone else is unwrapping today!!

  4. I've been thinking about how my husband and I should have a "family" photo taken for the holidays, especially since we missed the classic "first year of marriage" Christmas postcard thing....Maybe this year will be the year! And your picture, however many times it took to take, is lovely.

  8. What a beautiful picture! Part of the fun in having the perfect card photo is the process... sometimes dramatic, sometimes chaotic, but always worth it :)
