Merry Christmas!



The annual Christmas card picture is always a big production around the Frame household. I think about it for months leading up to Christmas, Mother and Claire make their Christmas outfits which coordinate with the theme of the card, Laine and Claire come for the weekend to shoot the pictures (Claire is in charge of motivational treats for the kiddos and Laine, obviously, is the one with the camera!), the layout is designed by Laine's good friend who is a graphic designer, and VOILA! It is ready to be mailed to all our loved ones around the country. It is actually alot of work, but I enjoy every aspect of it and look forward to it each Christmas (not sure my mother and sisters would agree, but they do a great job humoring me!) This year's theme was wishing for a White Christmas. The day we took these pictures, it was 60 degrees outside. We found John's sled from childhood and tossed in some artificial snow. Little did we know that only seven days later, we would have our first snow of the season in Corinth. The extra pictures were not used in the card, but I loved them as well.
