Our Christmas Card Photos

...if we'd actually DONE a card this year ;-P  Being sick threw me off - I was going to do a digital Christmas Card, but it just didn't happen.  These are the pictures I was going to use - wish I'd taken the time to get better pics, but we did a rushed session before we headed to the library to see Santa.




We found the tripod for the camera but should have put it on the piano bench or something to put it at a better angle - oh, well, at least everyone is smiling!
And then we headed to the library and saw Santa and Mrs. Claus - I was hoping Brailee and Trysten would have warmed up to the idea this time (since this was like the 3rd time we'd seen them this year) so I could actually get them on Santa's lap, but no such luck - not even for a Beanie Baby Bribe.  Trysten did get close enough to get a candy cane and pick out a Beanie Baby but wouldn't sit on Santa's lap.  Brailee warmed up to Santa the time before and told him what she wanted and stood next to him, but this time she wouldn't even go near them, she clutched and hid behind my leg the whole time.  Kaylee and Brianna were good sports - and still believe!

Thanks for visiting and letting me share!

Cute! You can see Trysten's reluctance to get too close - reaching reaching for a treat so he can back right out of there as fast as he can. Too cute!
