It has been WAY too long, but we have been WAY too busy here at the Karayiannis household. Between shopping, and wrapping, and preparing for Christmas I abandoned my blog!!
Here is my Christmas wrap up...
We started off the festivities with making gingerbread houses with all the kiddos.

Working hard on the houses. Thanks to Adie, they had quite a spread of goodies to put on their houses.
Ella's house almost completed!!!
Christmas Eve this year was spent at my mom and dad's house. Hubby and I rotate every year...we do one day with my family and one day with his. It only seems fair!!!
Here are the Viefhaus sisters!

Daddy and Tyler in their matching shirts...SO CUTE!!!
A very rare FAMILY shot...Tyler was impossible and I am usually taking the pictures so these are rare!!!!
My dad enjoys putting headbands on our boys...torture of course :)
And we had a VERY white Christmas this year! So exciting to see this on Christmas morning!!
And since we had such beautiful snow we decided to take advantage and snag some stellar pictures for Maggie and Austin's engagement. I only put a few on here, because I don't know which ones they will be using for their own projects...so I don't want to ruin any surprise.
The ones in the snow are down by my parents pond...my fingers were FRIGID while I snapped these pics...as were Maggie's toes. And not to mention the CRAZY glare from the snow and sun...but they turned out GREAT!!!
And I truly have to thank the Momtog Blog and Drew B for selling your fantastic UNmanual. It really finally gave me a clue as to HOW to use my camera...and I have NEVER been happier. I may NEVER use the automatic setting AGAIN!!!!!!!! Wow!!The ones with the Sunset are from Marta's house...they turned out absolutely adorable...probably because Maggie and Austin are SO cute!!!!
Can't wait to see what you two lovebirds do with all the pictures!!! So glad I was able to help!
I hope you all had as blessed and joyful of Holidays as we had...up next, preparing for our NEW YEAR'S EVE party!!!!!
