It’s hard having a birthday right around Christmas – it gets swallowed up in the holiday so we always make sure that Kelly’s is a special occasion. This year it’s developed into a several day celebration!! Friday night we went out to dinner with Dave’s side of the family and some friends to Chicago...

The cards are great! I got lazy and last minute and just had to order some generic cards from Shutterfly. Oh well! I don’t even have them yet so they will be AFTER Christmas cards.
I love those shots of Jayden too. What a smile!
If I don’t get a chance to stop back by I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas!
SingingMom - December 19, 2007 - 1:11 AM
Hi, Kerri. Thank you for your sweet comment. However, I don’t have a son over there, but a sweet friend that I love like a son.
You should go back to my Sunday post and see the wedding pics. My nephew got married Sunday afternoon….outdoors….in the cold. We were all shivering out there. The bride and her ladies all wore strapless dresses. That front that had caused ice storms in Oklahoma finally got down here the day before the wedding. Those girls had goosebumps on their goosebumps! But it was beautiful. I didn’t get any professional type shots, but at least you can’t tell I was shivering from the cold! 
MJ10554 - December 19, 2007 - 4:51 AM
Oh Wow Kerri the Christmas cards are beautyful.
And little Jayden look so cute in his little red outfit.:wink:
Boy he sure is growing. And I love those pictures of Jayden with the lap top they are so cute and he’s so funny.
Those faces that he made some are what I make too when I’m on the computer. lol
That little guy sure do have a wounderful loveing family and he s so lucky.
Well tonight I made up a Christmas center pc for my sister and took it to her and she said she liked it.
and asked me where I bought it at. Boy she sure is dingy she should have been able to tell that it did’nt come frm a store.
It did’nt look that great. I told her that I made it. That s the 1st time she seen anything that I made.
Any ways I told her that she would hav’t to buy the candle to put in center of it.
No I did’nt get a picture of it yet but will get one as soon as she get s a candle for it.
I’ll post more abougt it tomorow.
Next one that I’ll be working on is this wreath I hope that it’ll turn out alright.
Mickie
brysta559 - December 19, 2007 - 7:26 AM

I like your shot of the blurry lights!
crashhelmetkaren - December 19, 2007 - 7:32 AM
i love all the pictures of Jayden! He is soo cute! He is getting so big!
mommyfish - December 19, 2007 - 11:27 AM
the pics of jayden are wonderful…what a cuuuuutie! :love: love the cards, too. i’ll have to find out where you buy the cards..the ones bayphoto put out were not very good. the images came out all grainy like i’d taken the pics with a camera phone or something…yucky. unfortunately, my customer agreed and sent them back…bummer.
i’m working on my cards today, and finishing up last minute photo orders. our wedding went very well last sunday…a satisfiying shoot. (we photographed the groom’s brother’s wedding 11 years ago…they have five adopted kids now.:eek:)
one more wedding to go…
ryc: the tagline is new…glad you caught it.:wink:
scottrobert - December 19, 2007 - 12:12 PM

Yay Hitler snowman!!! Those cards are So cute!! Love them all! I saw August Rush too..I actually went out and bought the soundtrack I loved the music so much… I am back at school today..still not feeling the greatest, but at least I am here and able to get some work done! Not a good idea to be gone the week before Christmas. You take care~ Oh, love the photos of Jayden of coarse! Love, Charlotte
dimsom - December 19, 2007 - 1:24 PM

Hey Kerri, I post about once a month and barely know how to post a picture!
Thanks for stopping by’; those lights look(almost) like……lensflare.:eek:
lydellphoto - December 20, 2007 - 7:19 PM
George!! LOL that is so funny! 
:lol:
For those who havent a clue why that was so funny….George thought it amusing that I always tried to get lens flare while we were in Tahoe…I think that would have been a NO NO in the film days! So really my focus is the lens flare!!!
hehehehe…
