Our fun December so far

We have been having a great month! There have been so many new things for Tripp to experience with us! Our favorites are Tripp seeing his very first string of Christmas lights, taking him to the ICE! exhibit at the Gaylord, & just how happy and giggly he is!

Tripp was also able to get in some special Grandaddy time earlier this month when my dad drove up to watch the football game with Craig & Tripp.

Tripp thought the lights were amazing and immediately wanted to stick them in his mouth!

Another fantastic photoshoot with DeAnna Jones!

We just had some family pictures taken few days ago by our good friend and fantastic photographer DeAnna Jones of Cocoriah Photo (www.cocoriahphoto.com).

I was talking to DeAnna last night and it occurred to me that this woman has been a part of so many wonderful events in my life. So just for fun, I would like to count! She did my wedding photos, post wedding photos, Christmas cards for 2007, 2008, & 2010, Tripp's baptism, 5 month portraits, & family/6 month portraits. That is 8 and I am sure that I am forgetting a couple here and there!!!

We are blessed to have her be part of our lives and it is total bonus that she a truly an artist when it come photography!

Why I LOVE Shutterfly

There are many reasons that I love Shutterfly and their Christmas photo card promotion for 50 FREE cards is just one more reason why I love them! Not only is Shutterfly a great place to share you photos but their website is very user friendly. The best thing about Shutterfly is that they have a great selection of photo cards! I have used Shutterfly's photo cards for Christmas cards, birth announcements, expecting announcements, birthday invitations, and holiday party invitations. I have even used them to design photo books and calendars to share with family and friends. Plus all of these products are printed on quality photo paper or card stock!

I am so excited to design my Christmas photo card this year, below are links to a few of favorites:
