{making a list & checking it twice}

 this year i have tried extra hard to get all of the crazy out of the way so i can focus on the sweet spirit that this season brings. maybe in my next thirty years ill have it down,but probably not.

first on my list:
get these three little knuckleheads to hold still long enough for a christmas card pic.
lots of blood, sweat and tears, smarties and tootsie rolls and then of course changing my mind...sigh.



 second, finding the perfect tree with our cousins...family tradition.


third,
doing and seeing everything there is to do and see at thanksgiving point!



some stuff SO fun, and some stuff not so fun.
either way, i just love this season and wish it could last all year long!

Well, Tate sure had the smile down for the (attempted) Christmas card picture!!! I do LOVE the picture you ended up using though - the boys all looked absolutely adorable! As did Santa. ;)

And as many times as I have said that same thing ... about getting the craziness and busy-ness done first so you can enjoy the season ... the busy-ness usually keeps coming until about 2 am on Christmas eve!

I have shared in your pain for many a year. I would like to tell you that it will get easier...indeed it will...you've just got about 6 more years of christmas card photo ops until it does. The out come was worth it, your card is darling!
