Merry and Bright

Christmas cards are done and I ordered them just a moment ago. After I spent all day on them. I decided to go with a different company this year so that my colors wont be distorted, I hope! And I like to wait until the last minute to do major projects and I really like to make things super duper difficult. It's just how I roll. I actually started with my idea for taking the pictures 2 weeks ago but my 50mm lens is so tight that I just couldn't get the right light with the set up I wanted inside so I waited around until another idea struck me and it did yesterday afternoon: Go.Out.Side. I don't color my hair blonde for nothing people!! I had to make a few minor substitutions but the over all effect I was going for worked. It's something that I've been itching to do for years now and now I finally have it out of my system!! The weather was perfect yesterday so I knew I had to jump on it then because it's supposed to actually feel like December around here starting tomorrow. We shall see! The kids were actually so cooperative it was almost like aliens had come down and taken over their little bodies or something, haha! And after we were all done and cleaning up they were begging to take a picture themselves so being the wonderful mother that I am, I let them. And I'm thinking I have a new bribery tool :)
