This year...

...we didn't get around to having professional family photos taken; a) because this year just completely skipped away; and b) because I just haven't been feeling all that good about myself.  On the weekend, Seth stated that he missed having our photo taken together!  Who knew that it would even matter to a 6 year old boy?!  I just loved the photos that Janine took of our family last year, and I should have just bitten the bullet and had them done again.  I suppose it doesn't matter how fat I've gotten, just the fact that we're together should be enough of a reason.  On Saturday, I was madly taking photos of everyone at Andrew's family Christmas when Bianca asked if she could take one of our family.  I almost said no, and then I remembered Seth's words...so here it is...

I love this photo.  We are together.  We are happy.  That's all that matters.  Full stop.  I almost cropped it really tight, but look how beautiful that garden is!  Andrew's grandparents have put a lot of hard work into that garden over the years and I want to remember that too.
Cheers, Lis.

ps. 2010 is be kind to myself year.
