I am so excited to share our 2016 holiday cards with you! I used Shutterfly this year and am so happy with the way they turned out! They have so many fabulous choices to choose from. 

My favorite tee | Patrick's shirt | Isabella's top {similar} |Greyson's shirt

They have a great feature called "Use my photo" where you upload your photos and can preview them in Shutterfly's designs. I was able to preview our photos in all of their designs to help me choose my favorite. This fabulous feature makes it so much easier to choose a favorite. 

I decided on a more casual than usual wardrobe and location this year with red and black tops and jeans.  

I chose the Sparkling Bokeh Christmas Card with the red foil, I picked Mrs. Eaves bold font for "The Kirlin Family" and Arquitecta Italic font for our names. I picked the same fonts for our return address labels. You can see it peeking out in the photos below. 

I love coordinating the card and return address labels, it really adds a finished look and it takes one step away from me when I receive them. 

If you are still looking for holiday cards, go to Shutterfly and check out their fabulous selection! You will not be disappointed.

Good Morning everyone! We are so happy you are here with us today! We hope your weekend was good. We {my hubby and I} are in the process of designing a entertainment center for our living room. I have a design in mind and I hubby has one too {I think they may be different}. So we decided to gather some ideas and meet in the middle. I know I want some cabinet space so all the small electronics are not seen or all the DVDs/CDs. I also want some shelves to place a few items on {I'm not a knick-knack kind of person} but I do like color {vases, photos, candles}. I will show you our progress as soon as we can come together on an idea. 

Moving on to these yummy Mini Pumpkin Pies

 {Souce}

We are making these for our Thanksgiving photo shoot later this week. It has been delayed several times due to other time commitments! We promise we are close to getting it done! We are super excited to share it with you! Until then, what do you think about our design this year, as seen on the fabulous pillow we created through Shutterfly.
