Cotton Field

December 26, 2018 No comments
In October, the cotton fields in our area begin to bloom. They were the perfect backdrop for our family photos. Today, I am sharing some of my favorites from our photo session. 


Some  of these photos eventually made their way onto this year's Christmas card. (I am sorry if you did not receive one. I was slowly gathering addresses, and once I got the flu, all visions of a holly jolly Christmas came to a halt.)

The week leading up to Christmas was a battle, but considering how sick I was, I don't think I could have asked for a better day to celebrate the birth of our Lord and Savior. Chris and I had a quiet day at home with the kids. My mom, bless her soul, stopped by for a few hours and brought us Christmas dinner.  I hope that everyone enjoyed their holiday and had a Very Merry Christmas!!!

2018 Santa Pictures

December 22, 2018 No comments
Lola continued her Christmas tradition and brought the kids to our local mall to have pictures taken with Santa. Here they are!


For nostalgia's sake (because who knows how many years we have left before they refuse), here are some of Chloe and Evan's past pictures with the big man. Lola never forced the littles to sit with Santa, so if they weren't having it, neither was she. My digital Santa pictures only go back to 2011 and you'll notice a few with just Chloe. Evan was there, but wouldn't have anything to do with Santa...Chloe was much too willing to take the spotlight...
