Christmas pictures

It's that time a year again, and our family tradition continues. Each year we get our family photo taken. It is important to me to have those memories. I have family photo's from each Christmas since Bradley was born. Our family sure has changed so much. We all look so much different. The boys really change from year to year, and are getting so grown up.

This Christmas things are already different from the previous years. Bradley and Parker are very into Santa, or as they call him "ho ho"! Bradley & Parker made a deal with daddy that they would smile for their pictures, and in return they would get to put up the Christmas tree that same day. So, Bradley and Parker "decorated" the Christmas tree after mommy & daddy put it together. The Christmas tree is pretty interesting looking now. I told Brad that once the boys are sleeping I have plans of redecorating the tree. It's really cute how hard Bradley & Parker tried to decorate. I gave them lots of praise, and told them what a beautiful job they did... although all the decorations are all in one spot, on one side of the tree.

Well anyway, I will post the pictures tomorrow. They all turned out so nice. Dustin's pictures weren't the best, but we did get a tiny smile from him. I was really disappointed he wouldn't smile. But Bradley and Parker made up for Dustin not smiling. They did a wonderful job, and were so pleasant. Bradley and Parker even made a little friend at the portrait studio. They were running around together, and playing catch with a football. My boys have always been so shy, so it was nice seeing them come out of their shell and play with other kids.
