The Making of the Christmas Card
Every year, I hand make 150 Christmas cards complete with photo and newsletter. It has been a tradition in our little family since we were married in 2001. I love it! Choosing my paper, ribbon, card stock, and favorite pose is something I am obsessed with. Just the thought of it makes me giddy. I am attending a card party on Tuesday, and thought if I could get some pictures taken today, I will only be that much closer to having them finished. My newsletter has been written, and I am ready to go! Today, my mom took several of our family members pictures for various events- Rachel's senior pictures, our Christmas card pictures, and our good friends, Zack and Amy's Christmas photos. David and I chose to have our pictures taken at the Village on the Creeks in Rogers. There were hundreds- literally- to choose from, but I think I have narrowed it down. I am really lucky to have a "mom photographer" because I have at my disposal a woman with a great camera who would love nothing more that to snap photos of me all day. Posted are a few favorites, but I am withholding the final choice as a surprise! Enjoy!

The pics are great. David must love you a lot to agree to wear pink and have it documented. Bj would never in a million years go for it. lol! Looking forward to the card, per usual!

How did you convince David to go with the pink theme? He is one nice husband!
The pictures are great - I'm sure your Christmas Cards will be awesome. That is my FAVORITE part of Christmas - the cards!
The pictures turned out wonderful (as usual). I love the pink theme...we might have to do something like that for our family pics this year (hope you don't mind if I steal it). :) Where'd you get the shoes? Too cute!

It was fun...I would have a hard time chooseing just one, but I know which one I'd go with. Poor David he got tired of smiling by the time we were done, Ha!!!! And Bichon was down right tired-she slept after we got back to my house, she wasn't her same high engery puppy. This time of year is great for christmas photos, before it gets too chilly. Can't wait to see which photo you go with
