SPOILER ALERT: Some of these photos made the cut for our 2011 Christmas card. Read on only if you're okay with a sneak preview of what's headed to your mailbox!
One of our friends from church was kind enough to agree to take some pictures of our family during the Christmas season. I was hoping to get a few shots for our Christmas card, and I thought maybe I would get larger prints of some photos to hang in our living room as well.
Sherry wanted to get a photo of the entire family. So we tried... but some of us don't seem too happy about it! (That's actually because some of us - ahem, P and C - don't love standing still for photos.)

Once we got to some more casual shots, P and Cwere more cooperative didn't realize they were being photographed.

This Christmas it is really enjoyable to watch as both of the boys are thrilled with all of the decorations and special events of the season. Here, P shows off his favorite ornament.
