Christmas Morning

Santa certainly visited Saraya on Christmas Eve! She had lots of new toys to play with on Christmas morning. Nana and Papaw came over to see what Santa brought and Saraya showed off her new toys and opened her gifts from us.

My very own name book!

She finally got the hang of opening the presents.

This paper is pretty...and it tastes good, too.

A new car!

More Christmas pictures to follow soon!

Christmas Card Outtakes

Outtakes from our Christmas card photo shoot:

These first two were almost good enough to make the cut. There were so many good shots to choose from. I love the second one!

This one was really good of Saraya, but Ahmad's hand replacing the ornament was not the look we were going for.

Ahmad was standing behind me singing and laughing and being really silly. In this one she just looks like she's thinking "Dad, what in the world are you doing?"

There were lots of shots of the back of her head. The tree was too tempting.

And so were the ornaments.

In the end, we had several fabulous shots and I couldn't narrow it down to just one so I put three on our card!

Sitting with Santa

Saraya's first visit with Santa. She wasn't quite sure what to think of it at first...

But then she decided Santa was fun. She particularly liked his beard!
