All Is (becoming) Calm, All is Bright

Time is flying by so fast around here. I can't believe next week is THANKSGIVING!!! WHAT!! That means that Christmas is not too far away. In fact, this year Christmas is exactly one month after thanksgiving. Exactly.

I always wait till after Thanksgiving to put up the tree, and decorate for Christmas. I don't have a lot of my own Christmas traditions yet. But one that I do have is sending out Christmas cards usually (hopefully) at the beginning of December. Which is like oh... I don't know... 2 WEEKS AWAY.

This year, with a new baby, I am sooo looking forward to sending out picture Christmas cards. We have never done it before and now I am so excited to finally send one out with our cute little Eliza showing off her cute self. I love getting other peoples cards with pictures, and I hope they will love getting one from us too!

I have heard about Shutterfly from a lot of people and they have the CUTEST christmas cards. I am so excited to pick out which one we will use. I can't decide if I want to do one with the whole family or just the baby or maybe even a picture of both!

There are several cards that I really like. Like this one:

PLUS while I was shopping around I found that you can make calendars. They have some cute calendar themes and I think they would make good gifts for say.... yourself, or family. I kind of want to make one just for me to have at my desk at work.

Calendars are here: http://www.shutterfly.com/calendars/wall-calendars

Anyways. If you want to pick out your very own Christmas cards go here: http://www.shutterfly.com/cards-stationery/christmas-cards

I can't wait to get a cute picture taken and get our cards sent out. I always scrapbook other peoples picture cards and I love to see how the kids grow over the years. So cute.

Check them out and send me a Christmas card this year!!!
