I LOVE Christmas cards, and I had some free time to scan some of our old Christmas cards. And well, I thought it would be fun to walk down the "Memory Lane" of our family's Christmas Cards!
Wanna walk with me?
Oh yes, so young and newlywed...and we have a Himalayan!! :) This was our first Christmas card picture to send out in December 2001. We had been married a year and a half, and were living in our fun, little apartment in The Woodlands, Texas with our first baby, Angel! (Angel is still alive and well, but now lives with my grandmother, Mimi!)
Our first Christmas card with our new baby girl, Callie Grace! This was Christmas 2003, and Callie Grace was just over 2 months old! (Can you tell that is a Boppy pillow under that green blanket?) :)
I used to think I was crafty (but I was really just frugal), and I would handmake our Christmas cards each year! It was fun...for awhile. :) This was Christmas 2004 with sweet Callie Grace just over a year old, and baby Carson was already on the way!
Carson is here!! It was Christmas 2005, and we got to send out our Christmas card with our TWO precious children! Callie Grace had just turned two years old, and Carson was almost 5 months old!
This marks the last year of the handmade cards! (Life started to get a little crazy after this year!) This was Christmas 2006, and Callie Grace was barely three, Carson was 16 months old, and Baby #3 was on the way!
It's a girl!! Precious Caty joined our family, and we were thrilled to have all THREE of our children in our Christmas card of 2007!
We had a fun Ole Miss Rebel Christmas card for 2008! Have always loved this picture of the kids! Callie Grace was five years old, Carson was three, and Catybug was just 20 months...and notice that her hair was straight! No curls yet! :)
And here was our Christmas 2009 card! We had just moved to our new home, and life was really crazy, but fun! We sent our cards out super-early that year, so everyone would have our new address!
Last year was our first time to include our precious Caroline Faith on our Christmas card! We had started the adoption journey and were already 3 months into the waitlist! This is one of my all-time favorite cards!
Tomorrow I will post our Christmas Card 2011!!! :)

Those are adorable. Seriously you guys looks exactly the same. If you don't start getting old and chubby with few wrinkles soon I'm going to be really mad ;)
I LOVE your cards--so fun to see the changes every year. And last year's card is really cool! :)
(And LOVE the Santa photos--oh, the faces--so fun!)
