Homemade Family Pictures
December 20, 2010
We didn't have a chance to get family pictures this year.
I got everything ready in the summer but it didn't turn out.
I decided I had to get some pictures of the kids one morning. I
literally mean in the morning. I woke up today. Got the kids dressed
and cleaned them up and found a place to take some pictures.
Amateur photos at their finest. I posted the pictures in such a fashion as
to demonstrate that for every somewhat decent picture you have there is atleast one that is off for one reason or another. Cracks me up. Not at the time, but now.
Nailed it on the left. Add Marissa, Oliver looks behind him. Note, there is nothing of interest in that direction. Never has been so far as I know.
Luke won't look up, then Luke won't sit still.
Oliver pointing. I'm sure he was pointing at a car. Then success. YEAH!!
Marissa rarely takes a bad picture. So she is
sitting pretty in all her photos.
The best picture I could get with just Luke is on the left. Then we have him looking away.
Luke looking away and Oliver running away on the left. Then Oliver looking innocent and sweet as pie on the right.
Eyes closed on the left. Turned out on the right.
Hand the camera to Andrew to get a picture of Marissa and I. Turns out he is a natural. I should have let him take all the pictures up to this point. I can't believe that we even had any success considering my terrible timing. The kids were hungry and tired as photo prep time took all morning and now its lunch.

Hotdogs at Sams Club
I should say hotdogs and pizza. Andrew prefers pizza. This has turned in to one of our traditions. I remember getting hotdogs at Sams Club when I was a kid with my Mom and siblings. Now I take advantage of the cheap hotdog meal deal with my kids.
Perhaps it's not considered much of a tradition but we thoroughly enjoy it every time.
See how much fun Marissa is having. She was having fun and then she wasn't. It's a girl thing.
We get really silly. It's really the little things in life. It is for me anyway. Hopefully when my kids are older they will see it that way to.
