Traditional Christmas Cards

My grand plan this year was to have "traditional


My plan this year was to have a "traditional" Christmas card with both kids sitting on Santa's lap. I didn't even care of they were smiling, just both on Santa's lap. Well that plan quickly went out the window as James would have NOTHING to do with Santa. Would not talk to him, would not get close, would not tell him what he wanted for Christmas. The previous post shows just how close we could get James to Santa - with Jim holding him next to Santa.

On to Plan B: the kids sitting together in a Christmasy setting, smiling sweetly. The first two photos show the attempt to catch that picture...

On to Plan C: Separate but cute pictures of the kids. That works - the two individual photos are the ones that made it on the Christmas card. Maybe when they are 12 and 10 they might actually both sit on Santa's lap and smile at the same time. Until 2019...
