Number 10:
Meeting (Great) Grandpa Santa. And consequently screaming a lot a Grandpa Santa.
Number 9:
Trying our first candy cane, in order to sooth the incessant crying from the a fore mentioned meeting.
was not a happy boy when we finally took it away...
Number 8:
Exploring the winter wonderland light show at CALM.
(And no, that's not the real name, I'm just not sure what it's actually called. It's VERY cool none the less)
we didn't like the horses on the merry-go-round, so we opted for the safety of mom's lap on the bench.
so studly...
Number 7:
Enjoying a mani/pedi with my mom, with a red cup none the less! (Thanks honey! I love you!)
Number 6:
Family pictures with Ellie in the rain and freezing cold. More of these to come.
This was our Christmas card. I did a postcard this year. Ellie did it. Isn't she awesome?
Number 5:
Bestie Brunch and photo extravaganza as I like to call it. I think we made quite the spectacle of ourselves at IHOP.
But that's what IHOP is for. And for pancakes.
so apropos for our hippy dippy davi! =)
ms. grover, hard at work...
"it all started with a chair"
(name that movie)
and davi's right, we don't take ourselves seriously at ALL. =)
Number 4:
Secondary family pictures with Ellie. This time with the whole Andy clan.
(This was taken by my mom. The actual pictures are somewhere on Ellie's hard drive in the back of a UHaul headed to Sacramento. But we're not talking about that.)
Number 3:
Christmas Eve is always a ball with the whole Cham Fam clan. And this year was no exception. Way too much food, way too much noise and so much love.
oh, and a surprise announcement...in true Cham tradition.
Number 2:
Christmas day is always so sweet and relaxing with my family. But this year we were all a little anxiously excited. And with good reason.
(I don't have any photos of the actual event because I took them all on the bro's camera, so hop on over and see it!)
I love how she loves him...
thanks mom and dad! we can't wait to get away (kid free!=)
Number 1:
My family. I love my husband, am so blessed by my son, and am continually grateful for all that I have.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

I love reading your blog for all the great pics you take. My fave two are: the one of Henry with the candy cane all wide-eyed just before you took it away. lol. The other fave is the last one of hubby and Henry together. :) I am looking at purchasing my first professional type camera in the next year (I'm saving up!) and even got a book on photography, the how-to's... you're a great inspiration. :)
