Family Time

C's Family

My Family

The BEST part of the holidays is all the family time!  We get lots of very generous gifts from our families but the best gift of all is spending time together.  C and I both have siblings who live out of state so we rarely all get to be together as a family and we really cherish our time together.

Christmas Card Photos!

'Tis the season for all things holiday and our annual Christmas card!  We (um, I) thought it would be fun to use our new camera (thanks Mom and Dad for the early Christmas gift!) to take a self-timer photo for our holiday card this year.  Lesson learned: it's very hard to get two people and two dogs to all look in the same direction and not be blurry using the self-timer.  Especially since we were on a limited time frame since we had childbirth class to get to.  I imagine next year will be even harder with a baby to consider, we may be going the professional photo route instead.

Here are a few of our (failed) attempts!

 Thank goodness, a usable photo!
