I had every intention of getting our Christmas cards out by December 1st this year, but unfortunately, that just didn't happen.
We tried SO hard to get a good picture of everyone together, but as I'm sure most of you know, it's next to impossible to get an almost 2.5 year old and a 7 month old to cooperate.
We made several attempts and I pulled out every trick in the book. I would hoot and holler and stand on my head if it meant that we could get a decent picture.
Spoiler Alert:
It didn't happen.
So if y'all are waiting on our Christmas card to arrive in your mailbox, just go ahead and plan for it around 12/01/12....
I will probably just post it on the blog this year instead of sending them out (tacky and totally lazy on my part, but...'tis the season!) :)
In the meantime....here are a few outtakes from our Christmas Photo Sesh:
(and we may or may not have someone making a cameo in these photos)

I should have known better than to attempt a picture right after the girls woke up from naps (hence the blank stares) and during Sully's break time (hence the phone and dr. pepper)
Take Two was a little more successful...
Now, c'mon...act like you like each other! :)
On three, everyone make a silly face... 1, 2, 3!!
Individual Shots
(looks like somebody has a thing for blue mange)
"say uncle!!!!"
It's gotta be a sign that the photo shoot is over when the participants are using each other as pillows.
And now, the moment you've all been waiting for....
our 2011 Tippins Family Christmas Card:
whattaya think???? :)
