I think we need a few laughs today. I know I do. Is it me? Or is this the LONGEST week of the year? I’m sure it would be faster if I wasn’t working, if work wasn’t busy, and if I didn’t have two work projects breathing down my neck.
The good news is…there is only ONE more day of work, then I’m off and it’s my husband’s BIRTHday! Yes, that’s right. A New Year’s Eve baby. A very special one at that. I found the perfect presents and if you are keeping track that’s – graduation, Christmas, and now birthday – all in ONE month.
Phew!!!
But I digress…..back to the outtakes. To get the perfect picture, you have to take LOTS of imperfect ones. I happen to like those just as much…hope you do too.
Salem, please don’t smile like that. How about smile with no teeth?
Anna, try not to look so scared huh? I need a smile.
ANNA! STOP LOOKING SCARED!! (I think I just scared her)
Wardrobe malfunction adjustment.
Perfect! Right?
Give me a nice smile girls…..ahhhh dog!
Wait for it….
Lol! Maybe a tad less enthusiasm on the grin.
No peeking.
All are sleeping, dreaming, and giggling??
Hey, wake up…Santa came..lol..
You can’t go wrong from the back in pretty dresses and a gorgeous fall backyard.
This was the final take and the card we mailed out.
A round of applause please, for the wonderful Christmas photo shoot outtakes.
The next few days are the last of the year.
I hope to post a few reflections. Truth is? This year was a blur. Moving, marrying, hospital rooms, and photo shoots. It’s all a big ball of – Did that really happen?
I guess it did.
2011 the year I turn 40!
