Christmas with the Kids

We always celebrate Christmas with the kids on Christmas Eve. We start by letting Santa know that he has to drop the presents off one day early and we leave him cookies and go to sleep. This year, Stacie came over the night before to give the kids their gifts, we played some games, ordered pizza, and watched a movie. The next morning Santa had come with tons of gifts and we finished the morning with a big brunch, it was great!

Our stockings were full!

Reading the Christmas story before we open gifts.





Daddy got presents too?!!?

Awww

I think she was excited!







We finished the morning with a breakfast and sang happy birthday to Jesus with a candle in a waffle (don't worry, I made more than just waffles).

Christmas 2007 - first party!

Our first celebration was at Edwin and Kristy's house where my mom's family got together to exchange gifts and all. It was lots of fun! I love Christmas!

Engagement Session

I did an enagagement session over the Christmas break on the beach and at Ybor. Here are a few of my favorites!












Impromptu Photo Session


So pretty

What a little punk!

He did this when I told him just to act natural, lol!

He looks like he's 8 or 9 here

Now he looks 4, but at least I got a smile.

Ya, definitely looks much older than 9!


The latest Gap models

Totally Nicholas' idea

Don't know why he did this but it's cute!


I thought this was cute, they didn't know I was taking a picture.
