It's the most wonderful time of the year.... almost!

I think the time from Halloween to New Years is my favorite time of the year. There're so many fun things to do and so much emphasis on thankfulness and family and friends. I love the crisper, cooler weather- have to soak that up while it lasts, cause it doesn't last long here!

And I LOVE to send and receive Christmas cards! This year I'm particularly excited to send cards because my brother, Joel, is an awesome photographer and we just took pictures with him this past week. AND Shutterfly is having an awesome giveaway (50 cards for free!) for bloggers! They have so many awesome designs to choose from.... I've literally spent way too much time just looking and looking at the designs. If you're a blogger, take advantage of this awesome opportunity. Shutterfly also has awesome photo calendar options like this that I really want! (I really LOVE calendars and haven't had one that I just loved for a few years now.)

I can't wait to make my own cards! YAY for Christmas!
