Well hello there! My Christmas celebrations have come to a close, and I'm on a Christmas cookie detox at least until tomorrow. Jordan and I got back last night from a weekend in Texas with my family, and I'm on a state of high alert. Our apartment is a mess, our fridge is empty, and I have about 10 loads of laundry to do. No one told me being an adult would be so much fun. And by fun I mean hard work.
I wanted to pop in and share a funny moment from Christmas with my family. In case you haven't been around for a while, we are big fans of the tripod and self-timer. Every time the whole family is together, we set it up and take a few pictures.
This year, we all got a pair of flannel pjs for Christmas. I know for some people that's a tradition, but this is the first year I can remember everyone getting a new pair.
After everyone opened their pjs, we put them on and set up the tripod. At the exact moment the picture took, I jumped up on Jordan's back and kicked out my back leg. You know how music videos and movies have disclaimers like "no dogs or trees were harmed in the making of this movie"?
Well, let's just say that someone WAS harmed in the making of this picture.

That is a pretty neat family picture (your poor dad though!). It looks like everyone had a lot of fun. Thanks for hosting the giveaway. I find reading the Bible and praying most beneficial to my walk with Christ. I enjoy music as long as I can hear it live at a concert.
Good thing your dad is done having kids! Ouch!
Oh, that pictured!
I find that it's easy to worship God as I listen to music.
music & journaling are my go-to ways to spend time with God!
Omg - that picture!!! Your family looks like so much fun!!!! I love it!!!!
Ha! Your family pictures are always way more fun than ours! And yes to your whole first paragraph. I have been stressed out since the second we got back in town.
Oh my word, your poor Dad! Perfect timed photo op though. Haha! I love the tradition of the new pajamas.
OH MY GOSH! I'm dying at that picture, hahhaa your Dad! Ahh. But seriously, Christmas Pjs are the best!!!
Great picture-so much fun in one picture!
For me to worship I go to a specific spot (chair) in the house, find quiet, free from everything and read scripture and pray.
That picture needs to be printed out, and LARGE, and framed.
This is the best picture ever! Too funny. Glad you had a great Christmas! I'm still wading through Christmas cookies at my house. If I eat 6 every night, they'll be gone sooner, right? That's good logic, no?
Looks like you guys had a blast! Hope your dad was able to rest and maybe ice his knee for awhile during the rest of the celebrations. ;-) Merry Christmas, Amanda!
Dying. Oh. Wow. That is hilarious.
Merry Christmas!
That photo! Christmas card 2015, done!
That is absolutely the best Christmas photo hands down- omg!!! I LOLed in my office!!!!
Oh my goodness, that picture is the best!!! I'm glad you had a wonderful Christmas!
Such a framer right there. LOVE that photo! Looks so fun! Next year's Christmas card? Glad to hear you had a great holiday!
LOLOLOL poor Dad. Silver lining, he was probably able to hit the really high notes during Christmas caroling later?
Hahaha ohhh nook your poor dad!!!! Perfect timing tripod!!!! I love love love Christmas pjs - I can never have too many comfy pants :)
Oh, your poor dad - but that picture is hilarious!!
Oh man, that photo is PRICELESS. I was already loving all of the other photos in your post, but your camera's timer went off at the perfect moment. Your poor dad--but what a memorable photo that you all have now! :)
Haha! Oh man, this is seriously priceless! Poor guy!
oh my gosh - there are actual tears on my face i am laughing so hard. it took me a second to see it but holy hilarious. that is amazing.
i really love all your jammies. i want some.
That picture is phenomenal. Fridge-worthy in my opinion.
Perfect family picture. :)
Glad you had a nice Christmas. Here's to the New Year!
Next year's Christmas card picture, perhaps? :) Wonder if your dad thinks the end product was worth the pain . . . A hilarious image, for sure.
Your poor Dad! I'm glad you all have a good sense of humor about things.
Holy crap. That is the most hilarious holiday picture that ever was. I just kept laughing.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. I can't even handle this. I almost feel bad for the effort everyone else is putting into the picture because your dad, for obvious reasons, steals their thunder.
HAHAHAHAHA! You guys take the best family photos ever! Love it!
BAHAHAHA! Oh my goodness, I'm dying! That is BEYOND hilarious! Your poor dad! But seriously, that photo... gold! If you had been recording instead of taking a photo you totally could've submitted that to AFV. ;)
