Christmas Morning 2009

At one point I had to just stop working on this page because the more I did, the more I felt I was overdoing it... I hope I didn't!

Cookie-tastrophe! (Grand Theft Layout)

Took a break from Isabella's birthday pages to go back and do a page for last week's Grand Theft Layout Challenge (HERE). Also, knocked out another Christmas page with this one... feel like I will NEVER get those done!

Ahhh... Christmas pages, I'm getting there...

I just LOVE this pic of Gavin so much! It was the Sunday before Christmas when my entire family gets together (which happened to be here at our house this year!) and I had just told Gavin that it was time for presents. I feel like this look says, "Okay Mommy, I've been very very good... now where are those presents???"

A Visit with the Hershey Santa

Last night, a few of my family members and I, traveled to Hershey to see the Radio City Christmas Spectacular Show. Before the show started we stopped by Chocolate World where of course Santa was hanging out. My nephew AJ wanted to go see him but I knew Isabella wouldn't be so crazy about it... we went for it anyway. She sat there giving me that famous go to hell look and I was pretty sure no nice photo was going to come of this until I said, "Smile and then you can get down." All the people standing there laughed but hey, it worked! Look at that beautiful smile and the wonderful pic of these adorable cousins with the Hershey Santa! :)

Thought my new kit would work perfectly for Angelina's first Santa visit... love this pic, SO cute!!!

Gray Family Christmas 2009

So we got our annual Christmas photos taken yesterday morning and I just couldn't wait to scrap them, obviously! The kids were their usual uncooperative selves which I know is hard to imagine by the sweet faces you see here - just thank goodness for stuffed kitties and tennis balls... and grown men who aren't afraid to get down on their hands and knees and make children giggle! :)
