Jingle Bell Rock Blog Hop {Christmas Cards}

It’s day one of the Jingle Bell Rock Blog Hop!!!  Woohoo!!!  Lets get this Christmas season started.  We have lots of fun link-ups and giveaways in store for ya’ll! 
Today we are linking up our Christmas cards.  I haven’t mailed mine out to everyone on my list, so if you have yet to received one then hide your eyes!
I like to display mine in this little wire holder on the counter.  Hopefully this will be filled by the end of the month. We’ve received a couple of cards so far.  I just love opening our mailbox every day and seeing what is in store! 
Here is our 2012 Christmas card.
I created it on Shutterfly.  It was easy and FAST!
And……we are giving away

Lights, Camera, Action!

We have lights!
 
Tonight we did something I thought would NEVER happen…we got Christmas lights!  I just love the wreath above the driveway.  We ordered it from Balsam Hill online.  It came in great and it’s really big….here is Terence “fluffing” it 🙂
 
I have been begging for Christmas lights for the past three years and I get so excited around the holidays.  We found a really nice guy who was putting them up down the street and he came and did our house too.  He was very reasonably priced and he bought the lights, hung the wreath, and everything!
Last night I was playing with “bokeh” on the Christmas tree.
 
I Heart Faces had a great tutorial here and I had fun playing with the camera!
 

 

Come on cold weather come our way!

 

I don’t know how I’m going to deal with an 80 degree Christmas here in Texas! UGH.
