'Tis the season to be...scared?

I know.  Weird title, but quite hilarious once you scroll down.  I found this link on Caroline's, my sorority sister, blog.  I laughed out loud so many times, I had to share my favorites.  Enjoy!


This kid's backwards glance...

"If I can't see him, then he's not there."

This kid's face, and the fact that  I've never seen a "Soul" Santa.

Title of card is ELF-explanatory (I crack myself up!)

I love that the kid is looking at it's retarded mother, like she's just that.

I'd have the same expression on my face, if I was being touched by this creepy Santa.

You can tell this Santa is ready to throw in the towel.



I've laughed out loud every time I've looked at this picture.  Notice Mom isn't even holding the boy up--that's how scared he is!  Santa's face is quite humorous as well.

I just love this kid's outfit.

This baby is looking at it's brother like she's scared of him instead of Santa.


Love this kid's creative mother or father.  Funny.

Santa has my attention here.  I wonder if it's the eggnog or the kids that's made his eyes look that way?

This poor kid's jacket in the front is like an elf gone bad, and her brother looks like he's scared to be seen with her.  Santa can barely be seen with all the kids in front of him.

It's not even a full size Santa!  Looks similar to the ones Momma, Carol and Jenny had growing up.

I guess you have to laugh when you have three screaming kids in your lap.  Or maybe he's been sharing eggnog with the Santa from a few pictures up.

I'm in love...

with a camera!  

Keith is an up and coming photographer (if you've ever been to our house, the pictures in Knox's bathroom were taken by him), so he decided to purchase a nice SLR camera with money he will be receiving at Christmas.  I was supporting his decision 110%!  I love that we now have a hobby we can do together, and share knowledge of how to take better photographs--and now I can be IN more photos! ;)

So we ordered the Canon 40D, that came with a 28-135mm lens, and ordered an additional 50mm, 1.8f lens (after doing some serious homework about what type we wanted--thank you Tracy) so that we could take some fabulous pictures of Knox's second Christmas.  We both were so excited the night we ordered it, we both had dreams of using our new camera!  I know, we're both crazy!  So, the camera was delivered today to Fresh.  Keith was going to use it for their holiday lunch, but after checking it out, realized he didn't know where the memory card went nor had time to figure out how to even take a picture.  I had the privilege to take Keith the old PowerShot, and I got my sticky paws on the fabulous new camera!  Torture was waiting on the battery to charge, but I got a little reading done on where all my settings were.  (P.S.  We found out through Holly, who also has a SLR, that we needed a different size memory card, so Knox and I went to Sam's with no luck, then to BrandSmart where we lucked up!)

So check out a few of my faves from our "learning" session!
