My Christmas Crew

I attempted to make my kids sit down in front of the tree and take at least a few pictures each day that they had some Christmas clothes on. I figured if I did it enough times surely I would get at least a couple of pictures that were good. Here are a few that I think turned out pretty well. Hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas.
You can tell from this picture that I was making silly faces to try to get them to smile. Caden tends to mimic what you are doing and it kinda defeats the purpose.

The Magic Tree & Santa

We visited the Magic Tree, which is a tree here in Columbia that is completely covered in Christmas lights. It is a fun holiday thing to visit and get a few pictures. Ricky brought our new camera and captured some cool shots. We also visited Santa at Bass Pro one night last week. We figured that Avery Lynn would cry when she was placed on Santa's lap (which she did) but I thought I had Caden convinced to sit on Santa's lap this year but at the last moment he decided he only wanted to stand next to him (which is what he also did last year). Nevertheless, we have a picture even if one kid is screaming and the other standing next to Santa. I'll take what I can get.

Avery Lynn Laughing

This is from several weeks ago, but it will still make you smile.
