I guess I have to start somewhere. I'll back up a little... to Christmas 2010 (since I do have a few pictures from then).
Christmas tree farm (the tree in the background is the one Kyle cut down).
It was f.r.e.e.z.i.n.g!
Adelyn in the sled meant for hauling the tree
Christmas dinner with my mom's side of the family
This is well... *gulp* a blood relative and the man I'm married to (and
unfortunately he doesn't always dress this snazzy.)
Can you guess what Christmas movie character he is dressed as?
Also at the gathering is the Yankee Swap.
This year's items were especially... um... special.
Kyle received this moose that sings, "I Feel Good", for about 20 minutes
I was lucky enough to receive this eye patch... yes, eye patch.
Note to self: the pharmacy aisle opens up a whole new level of gift-giving for next year
Christmas Eve- our house
Dress Code: Your Best Christmas Sweater
(Too bad you can't get the full extent of each one)
Please note the following:
- Yes, the theme of Kyle's is the Tazmanian Devil golfing (connection to Christmas?)
- I embellished mine myself
- Surprisingly, Alyssa's did NOT come from this year's fall fashion collection but if she jumps up and down, it jingles
- My mom's is Speedy Gonzalez saying, "Feliz Navidad"
- My dad's has a big ol' bass fish on it (connection to Christmas is another story)
Christmas Morning at our house
One of Adelyn's favorite gifts on Christmas morning- Princess Purse filled with goodies
Christmas Day at my parent's house... that's a lot of stuff
That wraps up Christmas 2010 and let's hope for your sake the next post isn't this long.
And too bad no one will actually be reading this because I need help figuring out how to see more of my background- it's pretty cute but you can't see it.
It would be fun to say something cute here like let me know what you think of my first post, except I'd be talking to myself haha
Yay I'm so so glad you started a blog and my word it looks so good! I absolutely LOVE the background and header! Your a natural. Where did you go to do the header? I love the pictures and what a fun idea to do an ugly sweater contest, that just sounds fun and I think it would be a blast to go to thrift stores to look for the ugliest possible sweater, oh the possibilities =) I also really like your Christmas tree.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sommer!! And Congratulations, you're my first comment haha I got the header and background at shabbyblogs.com and I put the pic on the header on fotoflexer which I had never used but it was so easy... thanks!! It was surprisingly hard to get an ugly sweater at Good Will- Kyle's was the worst we could find although Alyssa's is so much better in person but she got it there a couple of years ago.
