Awesome Christmas Cards

Each year its customary to send out lovely Christmas cards to the ones you love.  We always send out at least 40 cards to friends and family.

Usually you see the traditional Christmas pose with everyone in the family smiling big, but last year we couldn't seem to get it right.  We used to go into a studio to get our family portraits taken, but last year I thought it would be cheaper to take it on our own and use Shutterfly's Christmas cards instead. 

Ours turned out hilarious!!

These were the best Christmas cards we had ever sent out.  We even had a friend of ours tell us that he left his on his fridge all year long, just because it was so funny. 

We basically tried to take the photo, what seemed like, a hundred times.  Still nothing was coming out right.  So finally I decided I would take the seperate.  One with my hubby and I and then one with just the boys.  But when I went back to view the ones already taken of the four of us, I came across one that just had to be worked into the card. 

Here's what we ended up with.

Notice the funny picture in the middle.  Couldn't get anymore original than that.

So head on over to Shutterfly and pick out some cute Christmas cards.  They have tons to choose from.  They also have tons of other neat things to choose from like Calendars and Invitations.  Ive always wanted to do a calendar with different pictures of the boys throughout the year.  They would make great Christmas gifts. 

We havent taken our Christmas pictures yet this year, but I wonder what the session will hold.  I dont know if we can top the ones from last year.
