{with a side of marshmallows}

So I did it.

And by IT, I mean the Christmas pictures. I took the kids' pictures over the weekend.

 And the absolutely astonishing thing about that?

 I took them on November 28. A whole month before Christmas.

Not December 19, which is much more typical of me but in November. Amazing.

And no bribery was necessary. Well, except the marshmallows and hot cocoa. 

I made it quick and easy and the kids cooperated. Even more amazing. 

Now to actually print them and mail them. On time. That would be amazing.
