got Christmas card pictures taken yesterday.
yesterday.
The 20th of December.
Pictures taken.
yesterday.
of course I love this one.
who is going to print me a 4x8, specialty size card by tomorrow at noon…?
not costco.
so I will send out another.
most of my favorite pictures of my kids have been taken by my brother, Danny.
For more info go here.
I may be in trouble for posting these pictures (sorry shelb!) but—c’mon-- laminated cards and an alternate outfit—how can I resist?
the event {shopping}
the food {olive & ivy}
the gift {squeals of excitement that only 14 year old girls can do}
the cake(s) {red velvet for the birthday girl}
just love this girl for all she is and all she is becoming.
It seems as though it has been just a few years since I held my first son in my arms—certainly not nine years!
Yet, hasn’t he been with me forever? I hardly remember our family without him.
I just love this picture of him getting a drink {all by himself} when he was thirsty--
he is the yummiest boy in this one--
or maybe this one--
just love him--
{for nine years and always}
grammaline treated the family to a mexican riviera cruise over fall break.
out on the deck we watched as we sailed out of san pedro. i missed the love boat confetti.
we loved the hot chocolate--
formal dinners--
pretty girls--
weston’s {serious} face
cabo san lucas was perfect--
weston hard core ice skater--
we went on a pirate ship excursion in puerta vallarta. crazy lucas was our personal pirate--
my favorite part was dinner each night, when we were all together, gathered around the table.
as we disembarked at the end of the cruise, Weston held on to my hand and said with full emotion, “I’m gonna miss that old cruise ship!”
we had a great time.
