It was a struggle to get this guy to even agree to get into this shirt–this is part of the reason why we got our holiday cards out so late this year–but, he super-grudgingly put it on. But, nice guy that he is, once he had it on, he actually smiled!

Dylan wearing his “fancy” shirt was one struggle, getting Cameron to wear her holiday dress was another…and that one we didn’t win, so we just let her wear whatever it was she chose for the day.

We were trying to get the pictures ordered before we left for LA (already a day late for xmas), so we even shamelessly bribed them with some Candy Cane Joe Joe’s. At least it got them on The Smiling Path.

I liked this sweet one, but I didn’t like the shadow from the flash.

Finally settled on this one!

After all of that, we didn’t even get a chance to label and stamp the darn things until we were several days in LA! At least we got them out before New Year’s!!!
