Sorry 'bout the empty box

One of my favorite things about this season is opening my mailbox and being greeting with piles of Christmas cards. I love the family pictures, the updates, and the cute card designs that fit each friend.

So don't hate us or worse boycott our box....but we didn't do a card this year.

We will be back on track next year. So please don't scratch us off your list, that would make us sad.

Merry Christmas From Shannon and the Fam!

Run, run, as fast as you can, you can't catch me I'm DARTH VADER

For Homework last week Corbin was supposed to decorate a little gingerbread boy. He was so excited and knew exactly what he wanted to do. Darth Vader. Yep we sent a Darth Vader gingerbread boy to school and Corbin couldn't have been more proud of himself.

{He did all the coloring, and cutting and gluing. He helped pick out the felt colors and approved every step of the design down to the button on the light saber, it was a fun little project.}

Christmas is coming...

and we have paper chains that are getting shorter every day to prove it

one on the mantle and one on the back door

they are a darling reminder that I'M NoT ReaDY!!
(not a single gift has been bought ahh Time slow down just a little...please)
