Here is it one of the few photos of all 6 of us. You have no idea how painful it was to get here. There was much crying, yelling, misbehaving, not a lot of smiling and did I say crying?
But in the end I got what I wanted a Christmas card photo.
Merry Christmas Every One or should I say Merry SITSmas
I wish every one the best holiday season ever. You all have given me so much that I don't know how I could possibly repay you. We have laughed together, cried together, encouraged each other and shared an idea or two. I don't think that I could get through this journey of motherhood with out all my bloggy buddies.
Now if you can just find a way to come out of my computer, I would love to have you all over for dinner or at least a glass or two of wine (if you don't drink thats cool, I have juice too.)
Now go over, if you haven't all ready, and visit SITS today. Its a special day with lots of prizes and fun. A day to spread some holiday cheer!
This blogging world holds a very special place in my heart as do each one of my loyal readers. Thank you to Tiffany and Heather for giving us an awesome place to meet. I wish you all a very happy and healthy holiday season.
A True Merry SITSmas!

And quite miraculous - everyone is looking at the camera.
If that's not Mother of the Year material, I'm not sure what is.
Merry SiTSmas! Em
And a Merry SITSmas to you, too! Hey, I'm Sharing Some Linky Love with you over at my place...please come Check. It. Out!
Great pic Jen!
Now that is a picture to be proud of...and I bet it took a lot of work to get it:) Merry SITSmas to you.
The pic turned out great!! I have an inkling of difficult it was to get--I gread it evry year!!
Merry SITSmas!
Cute picture! Why does picture-taking always have to be so dramatic?? Sheesh! Merry SITSmas to you!
merry sitsmas!
And it was probably the last pic taken, huh? Oh well... but it turned out great!
Merry SITSmas to you!
Very Pretty family. Y'all DO clean up real nice.
Ya know what doesn't clean up real nice?
A turd!
LOL LOL LOL LOL
Your card is beautiful! What skilled person got your all to sit and look so nice? :)
(we attempted a card picture with my mom and her best friend being the photographers - you will notice that none of us are looking in the same place. hehe.)
Anyway, Merry SITSmas! :)
Love the card. You guys look great. I am still looking through our proofs to find one with everyone looking at the camera. I gave up on smiles. Merry SITSmas.
Good picture for... we had issues getting a good picture as well and we only have one toddler!
What a great picture! I cannot imagine getting all of those children to sit still long enough to snap even the quickest of pictures. My son HATES,with a passion, having his picture taken. I will admit he is over 3 yrs old and the ONLY family picture we have of all 3 of us was when he was 4 months old! YIKES!! I am such an awful mother!
Merry SITSmas! I came over from Seven Clown Circus. I saw the title of your fab blog and had to stop by. I'm feeling that I am buried with children somedays...or at least out numbered and they have TOTALLY figured it out. Ha! Ha! It's all fun though. :o)
Aww, that's a sweet photo. I'm impressed that you were able to get all your kiddos to be in it. Did I ever tell you about our Picture People experience with Gabe? Oh, my. Torture.
You do clean up well! Amazing that you managed to get such a great shot!
Beautiful family...Merry SITSmas!
Merry SITSmas! Love the family picture. Those kids are just too darn adorable!
Wow, that is a great picture! We don't have any professional pictures of all of us. I think my husband's eye's would roll out of his head if I ever suggested it!
Merry SITsmas Sistah!
I'm thinking I might have some small idea about getting the shot. It's painful, really painful, and I FEEL for you. From one mom to another. :)
gorgeous family photo!
Seriously... I know EXACTLY how hard it is to get a photo like that! I have a two year old! :o)
That is such a great Christmas card!!! Merry Sitsmas!
Merry SITSmas!!
Love the family picture! I feel ya on getting the kids (well my two yr old) trying to take a picture....not a pretty sight!
*I'm bring the margaritas! ;)
You are so brave for even trying for a Christmas picture. I only have one, and I'm not going there!
Merry SITSmas!
Wow, I am so impressed! Everyone looking at the camera and looking good!
Merry Sitsmas!
You have a beautiful family! I especially love the one all the way in the back with the most humongous smile!!!!! Way too cute!
=0D
LOVE L-O-V-E the title of your blog. FABULOUS!!
i will most def be back!
Merry SITSmas!!
We always struggle with the picture, too. Not the crying so much as trying to get my girls to look like normal children. And not hams. I think your card turned out fabuloso!
I just love seeing your family!
Those looks are priceless.
Had to stop entering links for a second and visit some of my blogs!!!
Great photo!! You did very well! :)

Aw, what a lovely picture. We gave up on family portraits about 4 years ago.
That picture is amazing! Hard to believe at least two faces didn't have to be photoshopped--way to go!
Merry Christmas, Jen, and blessings to your whole crew!
I will totally bring the Chardonnay!
The picture came out great! Happy SITSmas!!
