I spend a lot of time on Pinterest and see all of these fabulous holiday photo challenges and beautiful pictures of everyone’s decked out Christmas trees etc. Last year I took a ton of photos of our Christmas, but this year I guess I used up all my cheer in November. (The tree went up on Thanksgiving and the presents were wrapped the week after…) I don’t have any cutesy little holiday photos or anything like that, unfortunately. This post is going to be dedicated to all of the random things that I shot during my Christmas break because it’s my blog and I can do what I want. 😉



My Christmas gift from Jason was a macro lens for my camera. Yay! So of course I had to take it out and play with it. Here are some example shots while I learned how to use it! Still a work in progress, don’t judge!





Since we wake up at 4:30 for work every morning, sleeping in for me is usually 6:30 max. This means that I get to watch the sunrise while drinking coffee in front of my computer. (my favorite way to start the day!) Sometimes we get some truly awesome ones.

That’s all for now!
