Books of 2010

Wow it's been awhile since I blogged--the holidays, and school ending, and a more awake and playful baby have kept my attention. I managed to read 147 books this year, 3 short of my goal--and here are my favorite reads from this year. I read a lot of young adult literature this year and they were so good.

Christmas Cards

Made this card to give to Elle's Daycare Teachers! This isn't the card going out to our family and friends--stay tuned later this week for that reveal. I wanted a simple card that I could add several pictures to and this fit the bill--plus the colors coordinated with her outfits. Luckily I had a willing model today--she let me change her 4 times to take pictures.
