i’m finally getting around to commenting after “sharing Christmas” – but i have to say, I enjoy your site so much and your pictures are definitely adorable (and so is your family)!! i think i may have to invest in that fancy flash! i’m not such a lover of photos with flash, but i love the naturalness this flash brings to the photos. looks like a wonderful, beautiful Christmas you had! Happy New Year!

Your children are so adorable…they should be in movies.

Oh my. Eat them up is right. Those girls of yours are heart melters.

And your little boy is a cutie, too!!! Love all the pics!

Cool Christmas tree cinn. rolls! All the pics are great, I love candid shots too! And thanks for sharing the camera you have…mine has a slow response, as you can see me complain about it on my post.

Thanks! Your comment totally made our day because it put the exclamation point on one of our Christmas gifts. We have used a Cannon SLR since about July and have really liked the quality of the pictures. What we like even better is how responsive it is. You know with kids it is sometimes hard to catch just the right moment if there is a delay when you push the button. But it got even better this Christmas because my in-laws got us a fancy flash that sits on the top of the camera. The flash actually points at the ceiling instead of the person which makes the pictures crisp and natural looking. We love it. Our Christmas pictures were the first I’ve posted that use the new flash. :-

I love the Christmas tree Cinnamon roll that’s brilliant! I thought it was only had to get a good picture of my family because The Husband hates to get his picture taken and The Girl is a ham and can’t just sit and be photographed…. maybe some day
