The holidays are FAST upon us – and I don’t even have my xmas decorations up yet!  We pulled in our neighborhood the other day and Kylie said “Look Mommy, Kyle’s house is so pretty – it has Christmas on it!”.  That made me feel REALLY behind! 

So this morning I dragged my husband out for a quick 15 minute holiday session with the K-bear so I could finally get OUR holiday card done.  The weather was dreary – but it still worked out.  As most of you know, I love to do pictures in the same pose or place as the kids grow – it’s amazing to see the change – and it definitely makes you wonder where the time went.  We also went inside and did a picture on Santa’s lap – the same place as last time but I can’t really post that one, since it’s not my picture – you know those copyright laws!   I couldn’t believe she did it, since she’s been so wary of strangers lately.

I loved these two pictures – a creative family portrait don’t you think?  Can you see Mommy & Daddy in the ornament?

And – look how much she’s grown.  The look on her face in this picture is so hysterical to me!

My little Santa Claus!  This is the same hat that I take pictures in every year.  My baby is growing up….

I SAW HIM ON SATURDAY!  We had such a fun afternoon at the Shoppe of Vinings with Santa last weekend.  If you missed it – mark your calendar for next year – the second Saturday in November.  It’s very casual and FREE, you can bring your own camera and Santa is so good with the kids.   The ladies at the store are great to work with and we decided early on that I would come and take some courtesy pictures for this very special event they do every year.  At first I was concerned about the lighting but I love the way the pictures turned out.  They look so nostalgic and “homey” (is that a word)?  It looks like they are sitting in the living room with Santa,  sharing the special moments that pass by so quickly.

So, here’s a few from the day.  I have over 300 pictures so don’t despair if you don’t see yours below!  Just check my website 11/15-23 to see the rest.  This first one was such a classic – such a sweet little girl reading her list.

Love this!  These boys are thinking …. “I don’t know about this guy….”

What do you suppose this little baby was thinking?

Say it with me… AAAWWWWWWW!

There was lots of love for Santa – and some crying too – but everyone had a fun time!
