Christmas Card and Christmas Tree Dilema

So, we were going to get a Balled Christmas Tree this year and for the next 3 years (one for each of our 4 kids)....then we realized you can only have a tree like that (one with roots still on, so you can plant it in your yard afterwards) for a maximum of 8 days - that means we'd have to wait until Dec. 17th to get the tree and then plant it ON Christmas Day!...We're going to cut one down next weekend instead...so that dilema is solved!

Another dilema is how in the world we are going to capture a nice photo of our 4 kids and hopefully the 2 of us as well! This is going to be quite a task this year!

One thing we DO KNOW is that we will be ordering Shutterfly Christmas cards this year. We will probably even throw in the birth announcement of Jackson's birth too! Shutterfly always has a great collection of really nice-looking card layouts so the dilema just becomes which card to use! At least that is a good problem to have! We have used Shutterfly in the past for birth announcements, photo books and Christmas Cards of years past and they've always turned out nicely.

This is a fantastic book we own about the Jesse Tree...a Christmas Tradition in our house:
