christmas card pictures

When I'm lying in bed with the lights off and I've already kissed husband goodnight, before I fall asleep I usually like to imagine things. Sometimes it's simple, like what to wear the next day, and sometimes it's complicated, like planning a vacation. For the last two months, it's been this photo shoot for our Christmas cards. And it turned out perfectly.

My darling friend Mary took these (such talent!) and she was awesome to put up with me and all my imaginings. Sam must also be commended for putting up with me as he hates hates hates getting his picture taken. The things he does for me! I'm the luckiest girl ever.

P.S. Come back on Wednesday for a glimpse of an actual card utilizing the pictures! Such excitement, I know. Try not to lose sleep.
