This morning we’ll probably be up somewhere between 6 and 7AM. Ideally, the later the better. We’ve all been a little under the weather and could use the extra rest. Hopefully the boys get the memo.
Today we’ll be tearing into our presents, working on our “thank you” words, and enjoying our time with family.
Whatever it is you do today, I hope you have a great day and remember the real reason for today.

We send Christmas cards every year. Last year we only received about ten cards though. I was super bummed about it and hope this year is better. We live in such a digital age that’s all about social media and email, but I love getting those pretty cards for the holidays. Anytime after Thanksgiving (it’s this week if you haven’t looked at your calendar) I expect the cards to start rolling in.
Earlier this year, I made a beautiful new piece of art for our wall from Minted. While Minted sells a ton of awesome products, I’m talking to you today about their Christmas and holiday cards.
I don’t know about you, but I have THE HARDEST TIME trying to pick out which card to send. For starters, I have four people that need to look good in a photo at the same time. If you’re a parent (you probably are if you’re here), you know the struggle. Once I narrow down a couple of pictures, the problem is deciding which design to choose.
If you’re anything like me, you have a ton of photos that you snap with your phone and never do anything with. Here’s a new company to get those photos you have easily made into a book!

Mostafa Keyhani is an extraordinary painter. Drawing from the Impressionist tradition, his work is alive with color and texture as he uses thin washes, areas of bare canvas, and thick impasto to impart an expression of organic life. While his paintings fetch high prices in galleries across the United States and Canada, his self-published books give each of his fans a chance to own his art. Keyhani is a Canadian resident born in Iran, and has had a journey as fantastic as his art. In this video, Blurb captures a glimpse at Keyhani's remarkable creative process. Perhaps it will inspire you to make your own book with Blurb.
