Family Holiday Pics

These family photos meant a bit more to me than usual - they were a goal and a reward to me this year for my efforts to lose weight.  It had been so long since I really even wanted to be in the photos. I love how these turned out! I'm always amazed that we get so many good shots when it feels like the kids are crazy and moody with occasional bouts of happiness (usually caused by me bribing them or doing something silly and embarrassing to get them to laugh). Life is good.
