Photo Christmas Cards from Shutterfly!!!

I've already started receiving Christmas Cards in the mail and it has made me realize that I need to get mine ordered in a hurry! I always get so excited when the cards start coming in and I've noticed that several of my favorites this year are coming from Shutterfly. My daughter ordered her Christmas Cards from Shutterfly and is so happy with them! I've been browsing their Christmas Cards and there are so many great ones to choose from and the ordering process is just so easy, not to mention their prices are great. Just upload your photo and you can see several different options and even save them under your projects. Here are a few that I'm considering for our 2010 Christmas Cards. Please help me decide! I'm also considering the coordinating address labels. One last thing I'll have to worry about when addressing my cards and they're so cute




These are a few that I'm currently looking at and there are several more that I'm considering as well- decisions, decisions. To make things even better Shutterfly is running a promotion for anyone with a blog and I will get 50 free cards for this post. How great is that?! If you're a blogger and are looking for free Christmas Cards or invitations for a holiday event, go here. Thank you, Shutterfly for making the holidays this much easier. I already have my picture picked out that our family took at Thanksgiving and I can't wait to see my finished product and share it with family and friends!

Let's Give Thanks!

This year we invaded Jeff & Jenny's house in Memphis.  Thank you so much for hosting!  We had  Jeff's famous fried turkey, Jenny's corn casserole, Kelly's sweet potato casserole and chocolate pie, Wayne's
wonderful dressing, and my green bean casserole and paradise pumpkin pie (my grandma's recipe - pumpkin with cream cheese). Jenny even made gravy!  Very impressive!  Anyway, we had a great time being with family, eating, watching football, a little shopping, and playing with Kate & Lily!  Perfect!


Here we are waiting for the Arkansas/LSU game to start. It's always such an exciting game - especially when we win!  (Which we did of course!)   I think Kate is starting to get the hang of calling the hogs - well - if you use your imagination!  Next year-----









Kitchen Renovation - Before & After

Finally have my dream kitchen - this is what it looked like before---

This is what it looks like now!  New countertops, backsplash, light fixtures, painted walls ( they're not really green like it's showing up - more of a khaki), painted cabinet doors, and new stove and refrigerator.  Our previous stove was 25 years old and still mostly working which was amazing!  We still want to find just the right wall decor and maybe new barstools eventually.
