Visit with Santa {WW #19}

Filed Under: Uncategorized Tagged With: Wordless Wednesday

Here are iPhone pictures of the photos.

Dustyn did great.

Carsyn not so much.

My hair from mom’s night. I have never been able to get curls to stay. Thanks Stephanie for sharing your tutorial. Left is at the beginning of the night. Right is at the end.

Those all came straight from my iPhone in horrible light! Sorry for the crappy photos this week. it has been so busy!!

One more from the photo shoot this weekend.I loved the sunflare and that sweet little tongue sticking out. You can see more on my facebook page.

Here is a Christmas card that I almost sent out. It was my second choice to this one. Merry Christmas friends.

Also a reminder please go vote for my photo on Paper Mama. It is #23. There are awesome prizes involved.

    I love the pic with sunlight flare. So refreshing. And the pictures with Santa looks great. Your kids must have love that picture so much. It's just once in a year to get that! Thanks for sharing these lovely photos. :)

    haha poor Carsyn, he's probably wondering why he's sitting on some crazy guy with a beard! I love this Christmas card too, I would've had a hard time deciding between the two!

    Adorable Christmas card!! Btw, were you able to make it to Christmas Town?

    What a sweet Christmas card :) We have been sticking with pics of just the kids because a) no one really wants to see us anyway and b) it's hard enough just to get a good shot of two people. Four would be a nightmare!

    Aww I love both of those Christmas cards, I don't know how you chose the winner to send out! Very cute. And I'm thinking next year Addison's photo with Santa will look similar to Carsyn's!
  12. [email protected] says

    December 21, 2011 at 10:40 am

    He he he love the Santa pics. Seriously, you have to have at least one picture of your child screaming with Santa or things just wouldn't be right. ;-) Love your hair by the way!! I use the flat iron to curl mine all of the time - unfortunately though the curl never stays in for me. Boo!
  13. Amy at love-bug-blog.com says

    December 21, 2011 at 10:25 am

    Oh my goodness your card is precious!!! love it!
  14. Gina says

    December 21, 2011 at 9:58 am

    Okay- we have a few of those shots with Santa- I feel Carsyn's anguish :) Love that little one with the tongue & that card would have looked just as nice hanging with my other cards this year. Although I absolutely love the one you chose & I get to see your faces every time I walk through the kitchen. :)

    Aww Dustyn looks so excited! And poor Carsyn......I think that's how most kiddos feel about Santa for a year or two ;)
  24. Tiffany says

    Babies sticking out their little tongues gets me every time! I just melt into a puddle of "awwwww!" Cute overload. :)

    Beautiful card (even if it is runner up) and congrats on the curls. My daughter has tough hair to curl too. I found the spiral iron seems to do better than regular. I have also done the straight for curls on mine. Doesn't stay well in hers. Hope you have a Merry Christmas!
  26. Adeena says

    December 21, 2011 at 12:14 am

    Haha! Crying baby Santa pics are classic. :D Yay for curls! One trick to get them to stay - don't wash your hair the day of. If you wash it the day before, they'll stay better. Learned that from various dance competitions that Becky's been in! She has stick-straight hair, but needs curls/wavy hair for competition.

    Love it all! My kid is completely odd this year, he thinks any mall Santa etc. is a droid...

    I can never get curls to stay either! I love your Christmas card too :)

Our last 1st tooth loss. 😢 She is our youngest Our last 1st tooth loss. 😢 She is our youngest kid to lose their first tooth.

It’s been loose for awhile, but when she bit a lollipop at school today it became super loose and started bleeding. Then she was crying. I went to pick her up and by the time I had gotten there she had pulled it out, it had stopped bleeding, and she had stopped crying. Still can’t believe she is old enough to be losing teeth. 🦷
