Let's jump a few months to now....Its Christmas Season! Today we had our first good snow. It is pretty and very very cold outside. The kids are loving their snowpants and playing in the snow already. Maybe because they get hot chocolate when they come inside :)
Thanksgiving was busy with lots of memorable family moments, some great and some not so great. I will leave that for a separate blog post.
On to Christmas. We are busy decorating the house, making lists for Santa and getting our tree tomorrow. One of the things we do every year is a fun picture Christmas card. We usually use Shutterfly to upload our pictures and since they offer a ton of great card ideas, we usually end up making a card online thru their site and then picking them up at either Walgreens or Target! How convenient! Here is the link to check out for your own Christmas cards, www.shutterfly.com/cards-stationary/christmas-photo-cards I haven't yet picked the background we are going to use this year. But, here are a few of the pictures that are in the running...
I usually like to have a picture of the girls together and then one of them each individually. Maybe I can take another picture of Livi in the snow to match Alex's?
This year Shutterfly is doing a promotion with bloggers. Tell your friends (via your blog) why you use or plan to use Shutterfly and get 50 Christmas Cards for free! How perfect, since we usually use Shutterfly anyways!
We have used cards with pictures for lots of things...On Alex's first birthday we used Shutterfly to make birthday party invites, they were adorable! Here is the link to check it out, www.shutterfly.com/cards-stationary-birthday-cards-stationary. Last year for Christmas we made a picture calendar with our kids and their cousins for a great grandparent gift. It was a hit (link= www.shutterfly.com/calendars).
Everybody should check out Shutterfly this year to make adorable and affordable Christmas cards!
