The Christmas Picture

When I decided it was time to take a picture for Christmas this year, I planned everything out. When we went to finally execute those plans, one little participant was a little, uhh, not so ready to participate in our picture taking excursion.
Sarah had been so ready for the pictures we were going to take that morning, but when the time actually came, sitting down and having to pose for pictures was not exactly what one thinks could be the funnest use of their time. Thus, a bit of difficulty ensued when we started taking our pictures, in great hopes that we would be able to get at least one good one out of the bunch.
Some things are pretty tough, and taking pictures can sometimes be one of those things.. I was so proud of my Sarah though when she turned herself right around and wanted to have the prettiest (along with Chayah, of course) smile.
This picture? Was a huge improvement-- we're all smiling in this one! And I absolutely love Sarah's big and very animated smile in this one! But, we took a few more, too, especially since we were all happy with family pictures then :)

And then we got our final picture and I am so happy with it! Only wish that our whole family could be in it together.. (my two older sisters and their husbands). I love this picture though and am so happy that it all did work out after all!

Merry Christmas from our family to yours!!
