Shutterfly

This season I am excited about sending Christmas cards. I did this a couple of years back after Noah and I got engaged and I loved them.

I've been telling my family we need to have an updated family photo since we don't have one with Noah in the picture. And what a better year to do this because Ava was also born this year. Kill two birds with one stone.

My sister and I decided we didn't want to be cooped up in a studio so we've made an appointment with her co-worker/photographer for an outdoor shoot. I'm so excited to see how they will turn out. We are taking the pictures at Wormsloe, it's so pretty out there. I plan on using photos from that shoot to put in our Christmas cards this year and I'm super excited to share them with our family and friends.

I've always had a great experience with Shutterfly. I love thier fun lay-outs because they are so unique and modern. I like that you can personalize your cards. It means so much more to me when I receive photocards because I feel its like catching up with close friends and family. I especially love love love the cards that tell a story (part of the 2010 collection from Shutterfly). I've heard of people sending family newsletters but this way I can do it in all one swoop. Alot of great things have happened to us this year and I can't think of a better way to share it with everyone.

And I'm not going to stop of photocards. Earlier this year I sent my mom-in-law a photobook for mother's day. She absolutely adored it and I'm planning to make photobooks for the grandparents and for Noah and me as a keepsake. It's so simple to put together online and I had a very pleasant experience with Shutterfly. I would recommend everyone use them this year for their christmas cards, personalized gifts, etc.
