Holiday Spirit





Bah Humbug.... that is the way I have been feeling while being confined, constrained, and miserable in a 10lb solid cement cast. Yep, the ortho doc decided to lock me into this non-fashy, bright white, uncomfortable, lump of cement. But yesterday Alyssa convinced me that she wanted to go outside and take some "Christmas pictures". She is often my little model when it comes to practicing my photography skills (which are minimal). So there I went...hobble-ing down the deck, around the pool, under the trees, through the grass, and my little 6 year old Christmas angel managed to get me in the spirit of Christmas festivities. Somehow she always manages to have the right ideas. Now I am ready Santa, bring on Christmas.

1st time to your blog (via Picture This) and 1st...I love your header, & the music! and 2nd...your daughter is beautiful! And, I sooo hear you, I just broke my ankle about 2 weeks ago, and it's been hard to get in the Holiday spirit, but the kids make it easier! Hope you're up and about soon!
