I will admit I needed a reason to buy this skirt. I was in love with for over a year and it was just begging to be on our Christmas cards. So not long after the wedding I put a bug in Danielle's ear that we needed a family session. I showed her the skirt and then got to working on the guys outfits. Other than obsessing over the clothes being true to everyone's style and the pops of red, I knew it had to be at Piper Mountain. We get our tree there every year and usually go more than once if we can. I also thought Leavitt would be obsessed running around there and it would create perfect smiles. Yeah not so much. He napped the whole way there so I expected a rested excited little boy. What I got was an emotional roller coaster. Danielle knows I adore the blooper pics and I almost put one on the back of the card for some humor but opted not to send $6 cards to the 50 people I sent them to. I have a feeling Santa would call that my gift and I would be in mommy time out. When Nick saw my outfit he told me I was out of my Christmas loving mind and should be going to the Nutcracker not a tree farm. Now theres an idea. Thank the lord for Danielle putting up with my good side antics mixed with my guys and their lack of model behavior. I am not going to share the actual card because everyone is just now starting to receive them but I will tell you these pictures are equally as snazzy.
Hope everyone is enjoying the holiday season as much as we are. I just got home from a shopping trip and if there had been someone there taking pictures they would be a much less glam version of Leavitt Crying and me covered in sweat dragging Gap bags around. Next year I am planning Leavitt a guys weekend with his Dad the same weekend I jet out of town with a bottle of wine in one hand and my credit card in the other... I paid my dues.
