It's beginning to look a lot like....

#1 A house!  Hooray, we are really making progress on our house. The framers started today and should be done in less than a month. This is the stage I was looking forward to. Until now, it was just a hole, then a hole with concrete walls, then with a concrete floor. I know I should be excited about it all, but now that the house is really starting to take shape it's even more real. (Jake has the camera...pictures to posted soon!).

#2 Christmas. Well, not quite. No snow here (yet!), but it's rather chilly. And with Christmas comes a necessary project...Christmas cards! I just found out about a great promotion Shutterfly is doing...50 free holiday cards just for blogging about it. We debated sending any out this year, but if we can get this great of a deal, why not!?! You can participate too, just go here. Here's one of the few I've had my eye on...I think it will be perfect to show pictures throughout the year of our little growing family and our growing home. I'm hoping to share 2 pictures of each of the kids, one of the whole family, and a picture of the house. I think being able to write inside the card will save me some time beause I won't have to do a seperate letter and photo card. Ahh...the simplicity of Shutterfly! I always look for cards that actually say "Merry Christmas" and this one is just so simple and fun! There's lots of holiday and Christmas cards to choose from-check them out for yourself! And if you're looking for a gift for a hard-to-buy-for friend or relative, a photo calendar is a perfect idea-it's a gift that keeps on giving (literally-all year!)
