Not a fan of Jolly St. Nick...

Ruark is the happiest baby I have ever seen and been around. He goes to everyone, loves everyone, and is content with just about everyone....until today. We went to go see Santa Claus at the mall...and he was not happy about it. He clawed at my coat and sobbed and screamed the entire time. If you look closely at the picture, you can even see his tear rolling down his cheek. He was so relieved when we were done, and he gave Santa nasty looks as we walked away.

Maybe next year he'll be a little more excited, as for this year he wants Santa to stay away!

Christmas Projects

So many of you know I have been working on Christmas projects, which have been so much fun! Ever since I sewed Ruark's Halloween costume, I've been dying to start more projects! I don't understand patterns, so I decided I'd figure these out without one. Dixie, my friend and I worked the last two months on 6 sets of the felt food and then I decided to add an apron for my niece, as of last night. I love the way it all turned out! I love sewing, especially girl things! Man, I can't wait to sew pink stuff again, it's so cute! Luckily I have so many nieces to hold me over :) We made carrots, strawberries, watermelon, sugar cookies, hamburgers...with cheese, lettece, tomoatos, meat patty, and french fries. We even added a little shopping bag to give them away in!

The apron is reversible, don't want it to clash with our outfits do we ladies :)

Merry Christmas, I hope everyone is having a wonderful week preparing for the holiday season. I know I am!

Christmas Photos

Playing in the snow :)

We've been married for 4.5 years now and we're still more in love than most newlywed's I know.

I could see so many of these photos in a magazine!

We look so good together!

Ruark is so full of personailty!

Thanks to my very talented sister, Danielle, and good weather. We were able to get our family Christmas shoot in. The pictures are amazing and we couldn't be happier!!

I love having all of these precious moments suspended in time. We are loving this season and hope everyone else steals some time to enjoy time with their family and feel of the rich spirit of Christmas.
