Merry Christmas from my Family to Yours

THIS is something I wasn’t expecting to post today. To get my family together in one spot and dressed for a family photo is pretty monumental! The last time we had a formal family photo taken was when I was in ninth grade I believe … soooooo eleven years? Seriously?! I think it was FINALLY time to gather everyone up for a photo. It took a lot of convincing but definitely worth the time dragging them outside! 😉

I hope everyone had an amazing Christmas! I was so happy to be able to spend the day with everyone I love so dear to my heart. <3

This is one of the funnier photos of our little family shoot, but it is perfect!
