Here is a nice look back at Christmas Photo's past. . .
2006
We all ran away to Gaitlinburg for Christmas. I would say by
far one of the best Christmases we have ever had.
The Christmas photo was very casual this year. We happen to find this creek beside
the road we were driving and just stopped for some fun. You never know
what you're going to get in to when you are with this family.
This creek became the 2006 Christmas photo backdrop.
2006
This was the picture we actually used as our Annual Christmas Photo. This was taken
on Thanksgiving Day 2006. Still pretty relaxed and still no makeup and after a long
day of cooking and eating and playing. But it turned out pretty ok.
2007
VERY informal!! This picture will always remind me to never get a haircut on Christmas Day!
My sister was in Beauty School, and in trying to support her, I let her cut my hair after
we had our Christmas dinner. She didn't do that bad, however, I didn't need haircut for
about 6 months! This picture, I promise, IS NOT hanging anywhere in our house.
When we saw the pictures weren't going well, we decided to have a little more fun with them and this is what we got. . .
This was much more fun than those other pictures!
2008
Yet another no make up year! The picture didn't turn out too terrible, but still
not one of my favorites!
Then there is this year . . .
This would be the whole family including the furbabies! I think we look a little less stressed and better dressed and put together for a family picture this year. This has to be one of my favorites.
This too is one of my favorites.
We have only had professional photos taken once in our 18+ years together and that was in 1995. We always relied on the Annual Chirstmas Photo. I think, it is high time we get some good picutres made of our sweet little family! Especially looking back over the years of not so good pictures.
Does anyone else get goofy over Christmas pictures my like family? How often have you had professional photos done?

Good grief, did you see my fat belly in that picture with the purple and pink stripes? that was just embarrassing! Yikes. . . . glad that is gone. . .
PS - we sure have come a long way over the years and we have the pictures to prove it!!! We both lost a spare tire. . .but I'm not planning on having any flats, so I won't be needing mine anymore! LOL
