Getting It Right


 Sometimes I'm so busy running around trying to get everything right....I forget that maybe the most fun part is the chaos! Everyone in motion.









Finally! Whew!!!




They did great....especially when you realize what a sugar high they are experiencing. While decorating ginger bread houses you have to eat as much candy as you glue to the house. After the kids left, Dave fell asleep on the sofa. I think making all the cars for Miss "N" above wore him out.

Until later,

Alma

I LOVE the pictures! I thought our family was the only family that displayed so much chaos when trying to get a family photo! It looks like you had a blast!

Your decorating class was worth it! Your grandchildren will cherish these memories for a lifetime. That's what family is.

Laughing at the pics...my "kids" are 28, 26, and 26, and I still can't get them to all willingly stand still at the same time for a Christmas photo....
Merry Christmas!

I appreciate the work here, I was familiar with some of these, but Design Instruct is becoming a new favorite of mine now! I don’t know what I would do for projects without sources of inspiration like these blogs. Logo Design
