Christmas Dress Pictures with Samantha

I had all these great ideas for our Christmas card this year that involved the whole family plus the dog but one thing led to another and it never worked out.  So, I finally gave up and decided that the Xmas card would just be a picture of Samantha.  Now that led to another problem...the child never wanted to put on her Christmas dress so I could snap a few pictures of her.  About a week ago it was a gorgeous day and I suggested we put her dress on and go outside for some pictures and she agreed immediately so off we went to the park by Grandmas for some pictures. 

I had such a hard time picking my favorite....I loved them all.

I think this one is my favorite but again I had such a hard time choosing.

I love her expression here
