So we were all excited about getting a family photo shot for our Christmas card this year. While viewing these photos remember the age of our kids...3,2, & 2 months. It started off bad and ended with peeing in the pond and running after geese. All in all, we had a great time in the end, but no photo for the Christmas card. So if you all don't get a Christmas card from us this year, you'll know why.
Notice how nice this shot could have been....the nice
rocks and waterfall in the background.
A different location wasn't the answer to a better family shot.
As you can see, we were fed up...but
Jake & Layton got a close up of the ducks.
This is mostly what we saw of Layton as we
tried to corral him back for a photo.
Our event lasted long enough where Jake had to pee
and there were no bathrooms near. I think this picture sums up
our attempt at a family shot that day!
At least we ended on a good note with a run after the geese.
Layton almost caught some.
Now my boys contemplate how the geese got away so fast.
What a great day at the pond?!

I hear ya Tami...trying to get pics of kiddos at these ages just does NOT happen the way we want it too!! But it's funny to look back on after you are through with the moment.
Did you see our family photos posted on my blog? I agree, it is a very tricky experience to navigate through. I am so thrilled that we have some friends that are photoshop pros and they brightened, removed, and even took one head shot from one picture and changed heads with another picture! Amazing!!! Don't believe any of those photos you get in the mail anymore!
hey tami! fun to hear from you.
love that post! i can totally relate.
i cant believe how great you look, didnt you just have a baby?!!! whats your secret!
so, i have a nikkon d80 and i love everything about it! i dont know why i chose the nikon over the cannon but i did. most of my photographer friends shoot cannons but so far i love everything about it, i love that it has a wide range of iso, or film settings much more than the cannon, has more options than i know what to do with. i have only had it for a few months so im still learning but so far i cant tell ya one thing i dont like about it.
i hoping to get some new lenses for christmas!!
i dont know if that helped, if you have more questions ask away, im not so sure i can answer them but ill try!
I love it!!
You'll notice when you get our card that we finally did just the kids. We weren't getting enough cooperation with us in it. Gotta love family pictures :)
Dallin is so sweet!!
Hi Tami. I think you should just use the one of Jake peeing in the pond as your christmas card. ;)That is such a funny shot!
Oh my gosh! Maybe one of the funniest posts I have ever seen! I really want that Christmas Card!!
You look awesome in those pictures, just had a baby yah right! Your family is so adorable.
