how hard can it be?

SERIOUSLY.

How hard can it be to get one good Christmas card picture of two children? I have friends who have lots more children than I. They manage to do it. I have a feeling if these children weren't my own, I'd have better luck.









Starting to see a pattern here?




I guess he can only take so many kisses in one photo shoot.

Awe! What sweeties. You know what I have often found - that if I walk away from all the photos I took and come back with fresh eyes, I will finally find one that I like. Sometimes I get wrapped up in getting the 'perfect' photo and forget to look for the ones that show their personality the best.

{P} sure does like to give {S} lovins'! :)

This post made me smile...I so remember those days with my own two boys. Now it's my grandsons...wonder if it's boys? Anyway this year we tried and my oldest grandson AND pop-pop kept acting up. In each one they were making some kind of strange face! Oh well....we went with the best we could get. :-)

It's not just you...I couldn't get one either and I only have one child! I have taken so many pictures of her lately, that she is over it! When I told her what we were going to do, she said, "Mama, you already took a hundred pictures." I ended up using a picture that I took in October.

You are waaaaaaaay too picky! I love them all and think your friends and family would too. Brothers...one day this could be your favorite card of all times. Could you get the entire series on there? Perhaps a long or wide card...I love 'em!

IKWYM, I didn't get a decent pic until yesterday (way too late for cards)...oh, well. Maybe next year...people think I'm the paparazzi these days.
