For the past two weeks the South Carolina Halsteds have been
celebrating. Celebrating our baby girl’s 2nd birthday and celebrating
Jesus’ birthday by spending the holiday with amazing family.
To say that we have been blessed this season is not an
exaggeration. There are so many things to be thankful for this time of year and
at the top of my list would be enjoying our family and friends. We had such an incredible
vacation with the family and I am not embellishing when I say we took over 1500
photos over the past two weeks. Yes, 1500. Yikes.
One can easily conclude the four of us had so much fun that there
were over a thousand things to photograph. (Which we absolutely did!) But one
could also be honest and admit to having a low battery on her flash, thus
resulting in numerous blurry photos. (I'm so glad Dan figured that out for me! I should have asked him sooner! Lesson learned) :-)
No need to feel daunted though, I’ve weeded through the cacophony
and only uploaded 98.9% of the 1500. Kidding! Just wanted to make sure you were
still paying attention! ;-) There are only about 130 total photos uploaded, so
scroll down for some of the highlights, but make sure to click HERE for all
the adventures.
Hope everyone was as blessed and spoiled as we were for
Christmas!
Merry Christmas!!
