Christmas Cards

We got our photos taken very early this year by the wonderful Chera. We spent the morning at our friends farm in Rockwall. It was great to catch up with friends and let the kids run wild on their beautiful farm. After a morning of running around, we got the kids dressed to go take pictures in Frisco. Despite the kids being their usual wild selves...she still managed to get some amazing shots that capture their personalities. She is such an amazing photographer and I cant wait to see our edited photos and get started making our holiday cards. I have a feeling it will be hard to choose which pictures i like the best.

Im excited about all the fun new designs they have at shutterfly.com this year. To see some of their Christmas card designs ..go here http://www.shutterfly.com/cards-stationery/christmas-cards for holiday designs go here...http://www.shutterfly.com/cards-stationery/holiday-cards

I LOVE these story cards because I can fit more photos and tell a little about what each of us are doing this year. http://www.shutterfly.com/cards-stationery/cards-stationery/joy-sage-story-christmas-5x7-folded-card?sortType=1&storeNode=93478

I think my favorite part of Christmas is getting Christmas cards from friends and family. Its so much fun to see how the kids have grown over the year.

These were taken at a summer kickoff swim party at the Twaddells house. Chase ran around the entire time and barely stopped to eat. We brought blueberry cobbler with blueberries that we picked at the berry patch the day before. It was so good!

Caden and Cole spent most of their time in the pool playing basketball and diving. Chase liked to swim but couldnt stay in one place for more than a few minutes because thats his nature. Chase liked the zipline the best and was so proud that he was big enough to ride on it.

Finally a new post!

ive decided that id better update my blog. Ill try to be better about updating for 2010. Ill start with some of my favorite pictures from the snowfall. The boys had such a wonderful day. It happened on the perfect day because the kids were out of school for teacher inservice and i was wondering what i was going to do to keep them busy and God answered my prayer and gave us snow! They played with a bunch of the neighbor kids and came in and had hot chocolate and soup.
