At Nathan’s Choir Concert the other night, I asked my Stepmother to take a photo of the five of us. Kaitlyn wouldn’t take her fingers out of her mouth, Ryan’s hair is sticking up funny, and Nathan of course is neither smiling nor looking at the camera. However, in the interest of at least getting SOME cards mailed today, I went ahead with this one. What do you think?
Those of you who have emailed your address will be getting this photo in your cards. Anyone who sends me their address in the next few days (HINT HINT) might get a different one if we can wrestle everyone back into nice clothes and get them in front of the tree or with Santa or something. Although the thought of driving to the mall and standing in line to see Santa makes me feel sort of sick, I guess I should do it, you know, for the kids. Malls should serve cocktails to people waiting in line for Santa, don’t you think?
So, email me your address so I can send you a card! Yes, YOU! All information will be kept strictly confidential and will not be used to stalk you or to have eighteen pizzas delivered to your house, I promise.

I love this type of photo … it looks like a normal family doing normal things. This is who your family is … the good hair and the bad hair! Just gotta love it!
I love the photo! You all look so happy!
I have to agree. I like casual, “real” pictures like this - instead of the stuffy ones with everybody standing up straight, eyes focused on the camera with fake smiles.
Use this one!!!!
YOU look hot, so therefore, I say, USE IT!
I think it’s great. I love the way your husband has his arms around you all and looks truly adoring!
Yep. You’re the one who looks good here. Go for it.
Everyone else looks so very “we’re a normal, crazy, wild, won’t-sit-still” family so it truly is beautiful!
I think it is perfect! Very real. And it shows how gorgeous all of you are. Cute!
That’s a cute photo!
The expressions on your boys’ faces crack me up though. And Ryan’s hair? My toddler has sticking-up-tufts like that almost every day.
So what if it’s not perfect, it’s real. It’s who you are. And the way Chris is looking at Kaitlyn is priceless and beautiful.
I second kerflop and javajabber.
I agree with the perso above who said YOU look hot! By all means use it. Everyone knows the kids are cute
I think it’s cute!
I like it. Plus, you look pretty.
Love the photo, my future daughter in law looks precious!
I’m e-mailing you my address but you have to send yours, too. the card will be a little late, but better late than never.
you look great in that pic! that would be the reason it’s a keeper for me;-)
Helloooo, where are you?
yes, you are rocking some good hair karma so you offset anyone else hair sticking up.
