Growing up we always said "Whatever you are doing on New Year's Day is what you'll be doing the rest of the year."
I sure hope not!
If so, I'll be.....
Getting up at 11:30am (slightly hungover).
Driving to pick up Evan in Strathmore (about 30 minutes from Calgary).
Listening to Evan cry and scream all the way back to Calgary.
Eating at Fat Burger....onion rings are yummy so that might be okay.
Going to Future Shop & Walmart (I hate big box store shopping!)
Purchasing an Xbox which was dead on arrival. Taking it back to Walmart.....
Playing with Evan......okay I'll definitely be doing this one!
So what did you do today? Would you want to do it every day for the next year?
365 Day Photo Project - I will post pictures on here most of the time but you can also see my pics on Flickr. Here's my first one for January 1, 2011.
Andrea of Pink Antler Photography has posted a "sneak peek" of our family portraits on her blog. Oh my goodness.....I LOVE them. They turned out so, so well.
When we were at Nana's for Thanksgiving, she made peach pie for dessert. Evan wanted to know if he could help. Nana had an even BETTER idea....he got to make little pies all his own. He was so excited and they turned out great. Though Evan much prefers pumpkin pie so I got to eat the tiny peach ones.
It's that time of year again! The time to torture my family while trying to decide what we're going to wear for our annual family picture. I get blank stares every time I say things like:
"It doesn't have to match, it just has to go!"
"We can't all wear brown! We'll look like a big mud puddle!"
"Help! I don't know what to buy Will & Nicole that they'll actually wear!"
I look at other people's pictures and they are so darn fashionable and it makes me want to somehow morph my family into that family. Here's the thing, though, we're not that family. Hell, half the time Nicole's hair isn't even brushed!
So I am going to try my best to not freak out & remember that regardless of whether our pictures look like a fashion plate or not....we will still have a snapshot of what we looked like in 2010 because time flies and we'll never be here again.
So do you take a yearly family portrait? Does it stress you out?
If you live in Calgary....we are using Pink Antler Photography. Her pictures are awesome. I'll post my pics as soon as I have them.
