While we were busy decorating, Shep and CeCe were just napping away.and posing a little.
For Thanksgiving, we made acorns out of butter butter bars, chocolate dipped marshmallows, and cupcake emojis.
This. This is the picture of what we do on the regular during the holidays. Enjoy this room, the fire and dancing to holiday music. Delaney had a captive audience. :)
Thanksgiving selfie
We also had our very first fall photo session with Stacy Wooten (also one of the nicu nurses who took care of our CeCe and Shep). That day was a disaster from the start. A flat tire on the van, traffic back up, and a 1.5 hour drive with crying babies and tired kids (and husband), made this session one to remember. The images aren’t perfect since the babies are crying, but it’s just our beautiful mess. We will never forget this attempt for perfection at this “very first family of six session”, and the way God quickly reminds us to have patience and let the small things go. I actually really love this picture. Blessed.
At the very end, I knew that these wouldn’t make the Christmas card cut, so I told her to just take a picture as we are, no trying to calm down the upset babies, cranky kids, or “trying to be a good sport” hubby. My favorite image of our beautiful, crazy, but absolute blessing of a life. Our hearts are wonderfully full...as is our house. :)
