Making a list, checking it twice...

Today I got 3 major tasks checked off my Christmas list! I finally got a chance to work on our family Christmas newsletter. Something I normally like to have done by now, but I don't know when I could have done it sooner. Above is the header I created for our family newsletter.

Tonight, after dinner (when the kids should have been getting ready for bed) I put together a photo shoot so I could have a picture to send along with the letter. I tried earlier in the month to get a good photo, but I really wanted to have some photos by the decorated tree...


Here are the "out takes" from 2 weeks ago.

Which brings me to the third thing I checked off my list:
Decorating the tree


Today, with some help from Hayden I got the ornaments on the tree. For some reason Hayden wanted to kiss all the ornaments.

Here he is pointing and saying "kiss it."

Yea for you! I keep waiting for John to bring home our tree but 4 days before Christmas, we still don't have one. So I'm gonna head to Wal-mart (wish me luck) and try to track one down...

Awwww, how sweet of Hayden.
Great idea using that frame!

Thanks...the frame was kind of tricky cause they all wanted to hold it, but then it kind of got lop-sided...I think I will try again at Easter time.
