christmas card carousel 2009

I'm so excited to show off our Christmas card this year so you can imagine my excitement when I found out about this years Christmas Card Carousel! I worked until the wee morning hours on Sunday on it, and I still made it to church....40 minutes late!

As I mentioned in this post, my sister came over on Saturday afternoon and took our family Christmas pictures and she did a great job! And while Evan was being a little stinker we were still able to get a few shots of him smiling. Yay!

Last year I ordered our Christmas cards through Walgreens and while I liked how they turned out, I really wanted to do the designing myself. After doing a little search, I found a few Christmas digital scrapbook papers that I liked and my good ole pal Mr. Photoshop and I made it happen! I picked them up from Walgreens yesterday and I think they turned out pretty darn good if.I.do.say.so.myself.



I can't wait to get them all addressed and mailed out. I especially can't wait to see how my parents and mother.in.law will love'em!

And just for the heck of it, I thought I'd share a few photos from Saturday....oh Evan....how we love you so!

You'll notice in this picture our attempts at deterring Evan from touching the buttons on the TV receiver....white printer paper taped over the buttons!




Evan performing his 'flex your muscles' face...


Evan and his auntie Lisa, they're best buds!


Can't wait to see everyone's Christmas cards! Merry Christmas!
