Happy Holidays

Honestly this has probably been the best Christmas since David and I have been married. I've been really stressed out lately with all of my weddings and projects that need to be finished that it just felt so nice to spend some needed time with my family and revel in the Christmas spirit. It was perfect. David actually surprised me with a few fantastic gifts (he's about as good at keeping secrets as MaryElla and Scott, so I was genuinely surprised). I still can't believe we got Luke a 4-wheeler...I'm a sucker. No regrets though... For some reason I can't find most of the pictures I took throughout the day, but here's a few. Anyway, hopefully everyone had a great holiday...this really is the time of year when I realize just how blessed I am.

the loot...

Luke on his 4-wheeler and my sweet little neice

Might as well throw in Thanksgiving
up at my parents house....

Here's the boys shooting the neighbors houses....creepy, I know

and Luke taking a shot at his dear Mother after I asked him to smile nice for the camera

I made the best cheese ball ever and the only picture I have is this one...can you see it in the middle of the room!?!? Looks delicious, eh!?

Dreaming of a white Christmas....

Over the weekend I shot a wedding in LA...while I was driving to their reception I passed by a couple houses that just cracked me up. How would it be to want snow on your driveway!?! I guess for Tricia and Melissa this is not anything new, but I was impressed by their ambitious efforts in creating a white Christmas.

Addresses!?!?!

I know that all of you are dying to send me a Christmas card....;)

If anyone wants a Christmas card from me please leave your address. Most of you guys have moved since I last updated my address book....like six years ago.

Christmas Pictures???

What makes these Christmas Pictures you ask?!?! Well, nothing really....they're just the only ones I've taken in awhile (I was sick of waiting for the snow) and I'm using them on our Christmas card regardless. But seriously, I love this kid!
