My goal is to get ALL Christmas pictures and video up here before the new year. Otherwise, it throws off my archives, and this Christmas will be saved in 2012. That alone pushes me to finish. I have uploaded Sage's videos and all 200+ pictures, and now I just have to go through and edit and upload Jaggar's videos. I have definite memories of Christmas day that I am going to recount in detail (the videos are great), but I'm struggling to get it done. I took HOURS to finish taking ALL decorations down yesterday, and I feel like I can breathe a little easier with a little more room. That and I've been mastering the MJ game. I'm getting all but the highest star! YEEEAH. I swear I have to shower after playing that game. I am SERIOUS about it. I feel like I've been going to the GYM! EEK! Exercise! Anyway, when I uploaded Travis' pics, they wouldn't go on my laptop, so I had to go to the desktop, which I apparently haven't used in a LONG time because I found some pictures I barely recognized, and some made me long for times past.
Holy God! I seriously don't even see myself in that. Travis has always said that I'm the only person he's ever met that can look like a completely different person every few years. I remember this was the day that I had her color my hair as dark as I could manage to go. I liked it for a time, but the process to go back lighter was hellacious.
Oh my god! Baby girl! I LOVED that dress on her. I had a thing for this line from Gymboree. Back when she wore bows!! I cannot even fathom that she will be 7 next month! She had to be 2 here. I can still see her in her little pink Stride Rites. These are the days we had nowhere to be but home and I miss them. 
This is back when there were fewer children between us and we went out--pretty regularly. I have some fun memories of these days.
One of the most fun nights ever--the John Mayer concert with Travis, me, Chrissie and Sean. It was clearly almost 1000 degrees, and we stayed out until almost 3 am. That is and will be the latest I've ever stayed up. It was PAINFUL going home, but it was oh so fun.
I don't remember much about this night other than the only people I still regularly hang out with that were there is Chrissie. Strange what time can do, but it's cool. And I had to get rid of that dress because it falls to the floor when I put it on now. Bummer.
Not AS far back...but it sure seems like it. Bubs' first Christmas. He wasn't bolting towards Santa here like he was this year.
GOSH! LOOK at us. I LIKED my dogs then! Poor Chanelie. She misses my love, I bet. I should work on that.
Sage's 2nd Easter. Look--she is holding a binky, as we called her pacifiers. She LOVED that thing, and threw a screaming fit when I took it on her 3rd birthday. 
Sage and Harrison at the Atlanta aquarium right after she got her stitches out. Look how tiny they are.
And...omg...looking at this, it makes me thankful I've known this crew for as long as I have...and sad at the same time to see how fast it's all gone by. Time for my prozac. ;) Christmas recap is on the way. PROMISE. Thanks for bearing with my aching nostalgia.
