Super Cute kids, super fun day

I had a fun day taking pics for my cousin and her kiddo's, even though the sun was beating down on me, testing my patience (and my fair skin). Rambunctious but stinkin' cute and super fun kid's, I'll tell ya that! Beautiful family all around. Oh, and I can't wait to get my hands on that tiny little Baby A! She was a sweetie! Here are a few shots from the day.

This is my favorite shot of the day

Show off your shot

Here are my show offs...the photos are a bit grainy because I used my facebook camera app. But you gotta admit, the subjects are darned cute! :)

My favorite photo's of [twenty-eleven]

I gathered all of my favorite photo's from 2011, with the exception of a few of them that I can seem to locate right now. {sigh} Here's hoping you all have a safe and happy new year!

Photo's.....stacked

I am at a loss as far as screwing up my picasa and blogger photos! And I just can't get over it. :( How many times am I going to mention my screw up you ask?? Until I remember NOT to do it again!! So, I think I am trying to make up for my loss by adding more pictures. This time, let's try a widget. I love this site! ☺ Warning: you can expect me to be on photo overload for some time. But for those of you that don't want to look at my pictures while I'm overloading, there is a little, red box in the upper, right hand corner of your computer screen. If you click on it, I don't have to know about it. So, ssshh!

P.S. Have I mentioned that I like this site?

It's Christmas, not X-mas...

...or so I always believed. Tonight I came across a web page (I closed it before I could link it here) that explained that the abbreviation of Christmas to X-mas may have actually derived because the western ‘X’ is equivalent to ‘chi’, the first letter of Christ’s name, and a holy symbol, in Greek. I don't know how or if that holds any truth. But I won't feel so irritated if I see it this way. I read many things this evening that I could contemplate and argue, but I'd rather not wind up feeling confused or upsetting any readers.

I'm not sure if it is due to the fact that I completely lost all of my photographs in previous postings or if I'm just feeling a little nostalgic this evening, but here are a few Christmas photo's that I hold dear to my heart. ♥

And here are some photo's of a little bit of our decorating this year. I have been wanting to try making a "rag" garland and decided this was the time for me to try it out. I like how it turned out, despite my numb and aching fingers. What do you think?
I let Camden put the artificial tree up this year. She put all the pieces together. If you look closely you can see that she misplaced some of the branches. :) But I left it. The kids, one short one in particular, kept adding ornaments to the bottom of the tree in the same spot, but I left it.
