Spreading Christmas Cheer


We decided to do a family photo this year for our Christmas Card 2012.  Looks lovely, but gees, was that ever stressful.... with 5 people involved and a tri-pod, a mom that wants professional grade pics and 2 uncooperative kids.  Yikes.  But after several hundred out-takes (quite possibly) this photo is the winner.  And it actually makes me happy.  Everyone is looking, everyone is smiling and we all look relaxed and non-stressed about landing the perfect family shot.  But, I have learned to lower my expectations and just roll with the punches.  And for next year just keep it simple.  And lower my Pinterest ideas and stress.  Sounds silly, ey?  But, I know a lot of you moms out there know exactly what I am talking about...

Anyways, here we are.  The Conger 5 wishing you a Merry Christmas!  And a Happy New Year!
