Do Not Attempt

In an attempt to be frugal this year, I decided to take the Christmas picture-by myself. Well, I can add that one to my "Dumb Idea" list! If by sharing my experience, I prevent just one person from making the same mistake, I will consider this post a success.
I didn't get a single picture that is good of all three kids, but the photo shoot as a whole was a riot! We may not have a Christmas picture this year, but the following photos are proof that we had a great time attempting the impossible.


As you can see, it started off badly. I should have stopped while I was ahead.


Throwing the props.


A new pose and a cheesy grin!


Ripping out our hairbow.


Sucessful hairbow reattachment


Now we are getting somewhere.


Almost there...Wait for it, wait for it....


Some more prop throwing, this time by Tristan


...And we're spent.

Wow! I wish this was posted 1 week ago... That is when I tried the wonderful "do-it-yourself" photo taking! And I only had two kids! I did get some awsome motion pictures (the blury ones...)
