Bring on 2011!!!

So, Christmas has come and gone.  I get a bit sad to see the Christmas season come to an end.  All the pomp and circumstance is over with and the 4 weeks of preparation are gone so very quickly.  Now I am itching to get the Christmas stuff down and put away.  I want that chaos gone and some order back in the house.  Hopefully this Friday the boys will help me tackle the oodles of decor. 

We had a fabulous holiday weekend with friends and family.  It was so awesome to see Eddie’s reaction to the season now that he is old enough to understand some of the traditions.  We watched Polar Express and Prep and Landing about a bazillion times in the past 3 weeks, but I loved every second of it.  I’ve taught him to turn off the lights in the living room while we watch movies at night so the glow of the Christmas tree is the only thing illuminating the room.  I have done that ever since I was a little girl and I may have created a monster with Eddie.  Now he turns the lights in the living room off all the time.  While we are reading, playing with Bob, ALL the time.  Stinker pants. 

Bob had a good Christmas too, despite having a bit of a cold.  He got his first tooth about a week before Christmas and has been fighting the sniffles ever since.  He got gifts too, but was more excited about eating the wrapping paper than anything else.

While I haven’t been off work at my full time job, I have been taking a bit of a break from photographing and it has been MUCH needed.  I got a little burned out toward then beginning of December and I am looking forward to the slow month of January and getting refueled and refreshed.  I am excited to see what 2011 has to bring for both our little family and my growing business!

I still have room on my 2011 calendar for 1 or 2 more weddings, so if you or anyone you know is getting married, give me a call and I’ll be happy to chat with you about the big day!

I’ll leave you with a few photos from our Christmas weekend!  Happy New Year to you all!
