Happy Holiday Cards!

SO........I have never really done Christmas cards. West and I are not the type to be in pictures. But this year I have been trying to find a perfect card because I have THE CUTEST baby who takes THE CUTEST pictures and I have THE CUTEST photo to share with you all!

And then it happened, I found THE CUTEST way to share said photo.

Shutterfly's 2010 Holiday Card Collection. Have you seen these things!?! Hundreds of cards too cute to choose from.

Shutterfly is so easy. All you do is...

1)Pick it! Your layout that is...... (I have spent 4 hours narrowing it to 4. I'm a little obsessed!)

2)Upload the snazziest photo you have! Bet you can't beat me!

3)Spell out your greeting!

Seriously that simple!

I have never done cards with Shutterfly before, but I have done their photo books. LOVE them. I created the book for the diner there and I have been compiling collections on my computer to have enough for other books. They are awesome quality, so easy, and they come so fast. I am sure the cards will be the same.


This is what I have narrowed it done to:

THE CUTEST! I know......
I know you'll all be waiting for the surprise of which design I choose and this little picture I am hiding from you all for the cards!

Also, did you know you can gift tags!? Check them out! Sweetness!

But do you know what is best of all? Coordinating address labels! Order them with your address and save yourself the trouble of writing your return address, and everyone will think you are so on top of it!

And maybe I've gotten a little carried away (I haven't been sleeping well lately), but then I saw these invitations and saw this cool new Tasting Party Collection from Pier 1. I can't fetching wait to plan my New Year's Party. Better get on it!

Thanksgiving!

This year for Thanksgiving, West really wanted to stay home and just have the day with our little family since he has been working so much. I thought thought that sounded absurd and tried very hard to persuade him otherwise. The night before I almost had him giving in, and then.....I woke up with a throat so sore that every time I swallowed it felt like I was swallowing sandpaper! Talia had come down with a cold the day before and considering how I felt, I thought she must be feeling pretty awful too so I gave in and we decided to stay home. It was wonderful! We didn't do anything except lounge around as a family in our PJ's. Of course, I being a lover of the Turkey Day feast was a little disappointed that I wasn't going to get all that goodness. So we called West's dad before he headed to the celebration to come over and get our tupperware to bring back full. G.KNEE.US! Best turkey I ever had in my PJ's and a blanket watching Netflix! (And partially because Aunt Sue is a wonderful cook!) Now I know I would miss it if we did this all the time, but I think it would be nice if we were blessed with a cold every couple of years!
