Fancy

As is tradition, my kids got new church clothes to wear the Sunday before Christmas. As usual, I spent way too much time looking for the perfect outfits, and I was thrilled with them. Sunday morning I went to put them on them, and while Savannah was thrilled, Lincoln didn't share that sentiment.

Eventually I decided that since it was like 85 degrees I would let him wear just the shirt (with the sleeves rolled) and skip the sweater vest. Then came the funnest part; trying to get a decent picture of both kids. At first they wanted nothing to do with picture taking.

So I told them to just stand there and hold hands. One child was overly willing, the other wanted nothing to do with it. Surprisingly, Lincoln was the willing one.

After about 30 outtakes we decided that it was time to give up and go to church. This is the best we ended up with. Merry Christmas!

Daling little outfits. I loved your story about Christmas cards and photo's in pj's. I sure love getting one, but sending one out is a different story. Glad to see you guys are having so much fun and your little boys is so big and obviously very full of life and fun.
