This weekend we had the talented Kaitlyn Meeks take our annual family photos. She’s our go-to woman for all things camera related and if you’re local to Indy, she should be your go-to as well. (She’s also really good at Photoshopping, check out 2011 and 2012 family pictures and watch me shrink!)
I love that we get to document the growth and changes in our family every fall. These pictures have become such a treasure and the girls love standing in our hallway looking at years’ past and talking about them. This year’s will be no different, I’m sure.
Another reason we wait to do family pictures every fall is so we can use them for our yearly Christmas cards. I love when the holidays roll around and we start getting friend’s and family’s cards in the mail. It feels so special that someone took the time to send us holiday wishes and I love being able to do it too.
This year we used Pikcal for our prints and I can’t wait to see how they turn out. I was shocked with their selection and had to narrow it down to my top ten and then ask for help from Chris. Which is saying something, because I never ask for help.
Here are five of my favorites:
(ignore the publishing lines and purple border, those went away when I hit “order”)
Once our cards arrive, I’ll show you what we picked! Until then, you should get your cards (calendars, notebooks, and photo books, too) ordered. Plus, they always have FREE shipping and they’re offering a 20% off code just for being a Trusty Chucks’ reader. So, really, there’s no reason not to order your cards from them right now. Use BLOGCARD20 when you check out.
Tell me: what card do you think we should have picked? what cards are you ordering?
DISCLOSURE: This is a sponsored post, but all opinions are mine.
So my favorite is the black and white family photo (top left). My next favorite is the one underneath it. They are all good though!
one of those is what we ordered…ooh, suspense!
