That's it! We will draw a name on Friday afternoon and let you know who won! By the way, I have to say I got this idea for the raffle from Kelly Moore. I met her at a workshop I attended last year. She is very talented, has the most beautiful camera bags, and is having a giveaway in this style right now. I entered her contest and just had to have my own giveaway. Good luck and have a wonderful week!
I waited until the last minute to shop for Christmas gifts this year. I worked hard to get everything edited and it brought me to the last couple days before Christmas. But I am DONE. For a week. I am so happy. I have gone to the mall everyday this week as soon as it opened. Now that's the time to shop; when the sales associates are drinking still-hot coffee in travel mugs from behind just-straightened counters. It was the mall-walkers, moms in fur-lined vests, and me. The moms and I had a good idea, I think, arriving early. We walked swiftly from store to store (with the mall-walkers), lists in hand, and got it DONE. I had a lot of fun. I am a girl. I love to shop.
This is my first Christmas as a wife. My favorite thus far. I want to tell you what I got Gabe. There is something wonderful and peaceful about giving gifts to people you love. Even a small gift takes thought and sacrifice.
We are spending the week with both families and I can't wait to kick back, drink hot chocolate, and eat casseroles. Sometimes I have a difficult time stopping and resting, but family and friends are worth it! So Merry Christmas to you!
Gabe just gave me this beautiful sweater below. We couldn't wait and we opened a gift. It's the 23rd.
As I was editing these pictures I kept calling Gabe into the office to look at them. His response was, "Whoa, that is a cute baby." You know a baby is super, super cute when he elicits a response from the husband. Enjoy the pictures!
I can't decide if James is walking like an Egyptian or showing us his guns below. Perhaps both.
I am sitting at the Lawson's house in Louisville, enjoying a rainy Saturday. We came up this weekend for an Over the Rhine concert and an ugly Christmas sweater party. We purchased our sweaters last year but didn't make it to the party. We ended up just wearing them at Christmas and I think half the family thought they were for real. I've will post pictures from tonight so you can check out my 3D, reindeer and wreath covered costume: IF YOU DARE. We have dusted them off and it is finally time for them to make their official debut. By the way, Over the Rhine was amazing and you have got to check them out! Here are a couple more pictures from Michael's senior shoot. The second half of the shoot got rained out so we rescheduled for a dryer day. Enjoy. Scroll down if you are here for Heather and Jack's engagement shoot.
