Family Photos and Christmas Cards

Two things on which I am behind. Again. Even though this year was supposed to be different. Last year's lateness wasn't for lack of trying. Here we are, all dressed up for our nephew's blessing.
Not terrible, except I'm giving orders and Dan looks like he's on happy pills (he's not, by the way). We can do better.

Nope, now Nate's losing it.

Yep, he's gone.


Now everyone else checks out. See why we opted for this picture last year?

We're planning on trying for this year's photo this Saturday--wish us luck.

I love watching Dan's face through the pictures, he cracks me up. We are probably going to use a picture from the Wallaces reunion, since we haven't seen Matt since than.

Dan's happy pills start to wear off as each picture is taken. The boys obviously have to revert to silliness bc they are just sooo bored. Good luck this sat.

Make sure you have happy pills on hand for BOTH you and Dan this Saturday.

I love Dan's face in the last picture. The pictures, seriously made me laugh out loud. I think, you should actually send out one of the more candid ones because isn't that really how life is? Plus, it'd be real funny!

Oh man, what an awesome collection of pictures - and descriptions!! It's such an ordeal isn't it?? The worst is when you get a shot where all the kids look great but then one of the grownups wasn't even looking at the camera. That's where my Photoshop pro Hubs comes in handy...

i feel your pain. we had the same trouble with ours this year - which will be late by the way. our timer broke - so no Darren and Erika in the picture this year. plus my kids hate me after family picture time - i spend the entire session yelling at them and then expect them to smile. it's sick and wrong.
