This Is What Happens When.....

Since I try very hard not to swear (to much) the other title I had for this post was rather inappropriate.

It is that time of year when we need to get our Christmas photos taken so that we can get the cards printed. It has been very easy for the past 5 years because we only had one child. Today we decided to up the anti so to speak and even get a family photo of us.

This is what happens when you try to take a photo of all of you....

Where is Jacob and why is there a shoe in the photo?

Take two. Ooops. The self timer went off before Jacob could get into the photo and no one is looking at the camera.

Take three.
Oopsie, where is Jacob? Oh wait, I see him or is that just his fat finger in front of the lens!

After about 800 takes we gave up at this location it was just too windy and the sun was in our eyes. At this point we were still laughing but not for much longer.

Something is wrong here, don't we have 2 kids now?

Oh look, there is the other one, running away. ARGHHHHHH

We interupt this photo shoot so that Miss Rosie can have a meltdown.

Take 350. Psst, Rosie, look this way.

If at first you don't succeed....GO HOME.

I cannot count how many pictures we took today but at no point did both girls look at the camera at the same time. This is why I start this task in October.

LOL!!!! But I bet if you paid a professional who charges way too much, they would have been done in just a few minutes.
Can you all coerce, convince, and/or harrass a friend to come with you and take the picture(s)? I would do it but I am too far away!

OMG, this is too funny. Especially Lily's face during Rosie's meltdown!!

I agree withe Viv. I bet Hollis would take the pics with that nice camera. Yeah, that's the ticket!

Love
me

I think these are just the funniest photos, maybe you should use them all, it would give people a laugh.

I have no idea how to get you all looking at the camera together.
