Family Christmas Pictures with Pinterest

Okay I admit, I resisted pinterest WAY too long. It is quite handy. I still don't have as much time as I'd like to peruse the site, but slowly I am allowing it to seep into how I look for ideas online.
Enter Family Christmas Pictures....
I am just not as creative as I wish I was when it comes to creative family poses. There are plenty of cute things for babies or even little kids. My girls are too old for those cutesy poses but I wanted unique pictures.
Last week I was at the Governor's Mansion for a school project and it dawned on me that it would be the perfect place to go to take pictures. The colors were fantastic and the historical significance makes it and the GCSU campus especially sweet to me.
I spent about an hour searching pinterest for ideas, made a quick stop by Michael's and threatened the girls not to have great attitudes and tons of patience (the benefit of older children - you can make them behave and smile!)
After some awesome advice for editing software I think I have a product I am happy with (I sure wish I was 20 pounds lighter).
Now I just need to know where to go to get my Happy New Year Cards printed....
Some of the best are near the bottom, so if you are short on time, check those out first and please let me know what you think.....
