Christmas Card Outtakes

We headed to a local park after church today to take pictures for our Christmas card. This was outfit choice number 3 for the girls. The first pick HK flipped out about because didn’t like the shirt. Choice 2 M never even got all the way on before she was screaming that it was “too scratchy”. Why was choice 3 the winner? It wasn’t a dress, had no pink, was made of soft cotton material and they were seriously threatened by a mean old mama.

I thought I’d do a quick run down of a photo session with a 3 and 4 year old. We thought taking them to a pretty pond would be a great idea – here goes….

First things first. Take some bread and feed the geese.

Try to sit on Mama. Make Mama fall over. Hope there is no goose poop where I landed.

Hmmmm, is this white bread? We never get white bread.

Great big sister advice – “Quick Halle Kate, bury your head. We can stay longer if we refuse to look at the camera.”

We’re finally all looking but the sun’s too bright.

At least one child is required to have a meltdown.

And what’s a trip to the pond unless you try to swim?

“Wow! This is white bread. I think I’m hungry.”

Forget the photos, let’s play in the leaves.

This is HILARIOUS! And that photo that's "too bright". I can fix it for you, just send it to me via email. Or any photos you'd like "doctored" or "enhanced" as I like to call it.;) And the outfit's are adorable!
