Merry Christmas from our family to yours!

Merry Christmas!  One of my most favorite things to do this time of year is to rush to the mailbox each day to see what Christmas cards have arrived!  It's so fun to catch a glimpse of friends from near and far!

We were super lucky with our cards this year!  Shelly won a mini session with Lauren Melissari.  Sadly, she couldn't use it so she gifted it to me - thank you, Shelly!  I dressed the family in their best maroon and prayed, begged, and pleaded for just 15 minutes of smiles!  They happily cooperated and ta da!

Nichole Quick did a fabulous job of designing the card for me and I had them printed at Overnight Prints.  I love that the card captured our Aggie spirit!

Christmas cards can become an added expense during an already expensive time of year but this year the stars aligned for us!  Sending Christmas cards is definitely a tradition that I want to hold on to!  What's your favorite part of sending and/or receiving Christmas cards?

Wishing you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Gig 'em and God bless!
Holly

      I seriously doubt people get tired of seeing you guys! I find it so hard to take all the cards down after the new year! Guess I need to get caught up on scrapbooking them!!!
