For those that are scared to give me their mailing address, below is our Christmas card. This year we took our own pictures (which is why Jim and I are absent, we were busy encouraging/threatening behind the scenes). Jim took most of the pics and I edited. I think we make a good team!

Beautiful! Love you guys!
You and Jim really do make a great team! :) The pics, card, and everything are awesome!!!
This is awesome! Goooo team Jemmy! Like Brangelina or Bennifer but way better in every aspect. :) This is such a great idea to number the monumental moments... and the pictures are fab! Can't wait to see beautiful little Sarah in a bit. Love you guys!
Jenny- You are a master photoshopper as Tommy should be forever in your debt for getting rid of Rusty in the kid picture so it did not look like he was about to take a dump on his head. After your masterful edit job, no one would ever know Rusty's butt was just overhead. :) Great job!
838 miles? You're crazy! Your family is looking good! So grown up!
Love this!!
