Christmas Card Out-Takes

Since I have a few Shutterfly coupon codes, I decided to hurry up and use them to order our Christmas cards for this year. That, and it takes me like a month to get them stamped, addressed and sent out, so better to get an early start.

I booked a family photo shoot with a photographer here on the island, but unfortunately, she's booked until mid-December, which wouldn't leave me with enough time to get the cards ordered and then sent out. Remember, it takes me a while to get the ball rolling. So, I took matters into my own hands and attempted to get some Christmas card-worth shots of the girls. It was a challenge, but I finally managed to get one photo of the girls to use on our card.

Here are the some of the many that didn't make the cut. As per the usual, Adri is being a clown.





Do you send out photo cards for the holidays?

  1. Hahaha! I love these! They are too cute, and you can tell they are FULL of personality!

    We have never sent out photo cards for Christmas, but since we finally got married this year, I think we will! We are going to have a friend take a few photos for us soon. :)

  2. I LOVE the bottom one.
    Oh the joys of the outtakes.
    Some year I am tempted to actually send an outtake because they always make me laugh.

  5. Adorable! I was just thinking about themes for our Christmas cards yesterday. I think I have narrowed down outfits, but I better hurry because last year they almost turned out to be Valentines day cards. LOL

  6. Even the outtakes are so cute. I do send out photo cards. Took mine the other day! It was easier to photograph my dog than my 9 year old son! He is such a goof!!!

  7. V is such a ham! I used to send out pics but I never got any back so I don't think we'll do it this year. Petty? Maybe but we'll save some money this way.

  10. Juli did a great job of keeping her eyes closed, haha. I mailed our 2013 Christmas cards in January. Moving is a good excuse, right?

  11. Those are so cute! Most years we make cards, but every once in a while I like to take a nice family shot to turn into a card so people can get an update on how everyone has changed.

  12. I love that Juli's expressions pretty much stay the same. I think we'll get back to do cards next year, but it was just too much right now with the new job and new place.
