Christmas Eve

January 4, 2016

Happy Monday! Back into the full swing of work – boo. But, who’s ready for some Christmas recaps?! me!

First up? Christmas eve! GJ, Daddo and Susu were all in town and that made it extra fun.

Robert, the kids, and I went to the noon service up at church. We were all looking pretty sharp so I had to get some pictures!

Love, love this family shot GJ took!

Please notice the bare legs and sleeveless dress. It was about 75 and muggy! ugh! The boys did great in church. Samantha actually did really well too. She just preferred having me or Robert stand and hold her versus sitting in the pew! 🙂

That night we had a traditional Christmas Eve dinner of burgers 😉 and then opened special presents from GJ and Daddo!

The boys got new iPads! I helped GJ get them all filled up with new movies, games and apps to play with. I even put a picture of a tiger as Maxwell’s screen saver and a picture of a lion on Spencer’s! They thought that was pretty awesome. We also got them the headphones for when we fly places but they thought they were so cool they just put them on right then!

Card outtakes 2

December 29, 2015

Just a few more pictures that didn’t make the card. After I had such little success on my two attempted photoshoots, I tried taking a few pictures of the boys before church one day. They didn’t turn out great for the card but I did like this one of Spencer…

and this one of Maxwell.

Card outtakes

December 28, 2015

Happy Monday! I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas! We sure did! We’re enjoying the time off a little longer but will recap it all soon. Today, just a few of the outtakes from the hundreds (literally) of photos I took trying to get one for our Christmas card. We ended up using this one on the front…

and this one on the back…

I love them both. The one on the front was a total fluke moment that I happened to catch and it made me so happy. 🙂 Here are a few others that either made me happy but weren’t quite right for the card and a few that just made me laugh! Also, I didn’t edit all of these so some will be a little dark – and you’ll also be able to see the big cut on Maxwell’s head that I had to photoshop out of the pictures!
