Christmas card photo shoot

I wanted to do more Christmasy looking photos for our Christmas card this year. I saw this giant wreath online last year and have been wanting to replicate it ever since. It actually turned out to be fairly easy to make the wreath and I had a lot of fun putting it together. I just used greenery and berries from our yard and tied them to the base of the wreath which Ben made using some flexible tubing. I made the sign out of cardboard and then painted it. The kids weren't too excited about posing for pictures. Amelia was grumpy because not only does she hate having her picture taken, but she hates wearing a dress and her shoes were too small. Simon was just his usual busy self and was having a particularly crazy hair day. Oliver was angry that he had to wear pants. Elsa was my only willing participant, coming up with her own poses.

A more accurate depiction of Amelia.
