PJs of Christmas Past...

We are so excited to share today's card with you! Holly has been a loyal follower of YMM from the beginning but we only met her IRL this past May - which is hard to believe because she and Merry Momma K exchange about 103 texts each week. She's kind, loving, selfless and just the most fun mom and friend! We know you'll love her and her DARLING family as much as we do... 

Who: The McBertys - Mike, Holly, Colby, Holden, Hope and our dog, Kennedy

Also known as the family that is simply too cute for their own good. I can't even deal with Hope's expression in that pic.

Location: College Station, TX

Props: Just our bed and our dog

Clothes: Girls are wearing Carter's pj's and the rest of us have pj's from Old Navy

{Mom}ments: I'm uber sentimental and love pictures of the kids at the same stages - and wearing the same clothes, if possible!  I realized when Hope was born that we would have to recreate this card and love that we could use "visions of Christmas past".

Holly, all we really want to know is - when is this card coming around again? We think perhaps for Colby's senior year in HS. He will love it and we will, too!

Designer: Brooke Designs 

Ummm. Let's pause and discuss a few things:

1. We love finding new places to order items

2. Her webpage is adorable

3. These are some of our favorite designs

You can find these and all of her holiday designs here. 

Photographer: my mother-in-law, Mary, took the original picture and my best friend, Shelly, took the two most recent pictures

Favorite Thing: I LOVE that Shelly convinced my husband to move our bed to our backyard for better lighting!

We do, too. Good call Shelly.

From the Mommas: 

There are so many fun ideas for Christmas pj pics - we had to stop searching but no worries - there could be an entire post on this soon! (And if you are looking for the PERFECT birth announcement pic, please see #2 below. Matching pjs, sleeping baby, "shhhing" sibling. YES!)

But if we are being honest, this is what it looks like more often at our houses...

And we even found some fun ideas for fur babies...

Our plan was to leave you with some of our favorite places to shop Christmas Pjs, but y'all - they aren't online yet. WHAT?!? That's crazy but also kind of awesome. Way to give Halloween it's time in the spotlight, retail giants. Ghosts, ghouls and goblins everywhere thank you. 

We, however, are only slightly annoyed.

Out of our top picks, The Company Store, is the only one that has items out and they are SUPER on sale. So click and spend save. Hanna Andersson, Gap, Old Navy and even Carters haven't put up anything yet. You can always search Christmas PJs on Etsy and never run out of options!!!
