Christmas Pictures

I think that Christmas cards and Christmas pictures are an important part of the holiday season and tradition. I take this very seriously. Unfortunately, no one else in my family seems to. In fact, they seem to think of it as "mom's Christmas chore".

I did not have the opportunity to get studio photos done, so today we took out the camera and tried to get a photo of the children that we could use for a Christmas card. This took extreme cajolling, wheedling, threats, and the old (rather pathetic) standby... "all I want for Christmas this year is a great Christmas picture!"

Not the best, but beggar's can't be choosers. The cards have been ordered. Hopefully, they'll arrive by next weekend

Here are some pics of our fun times!
