Christmas Card Picture Attempt #1: Failure To Complete Mission

Well, we anticipated it might be a bit of a challenge to get a family picture for the Christmas card this year...and we were more than correct on this assumption. Not only did Lorelei not want to look at the camera, she didn't even want to sit still for the picture and threw a fit much of the time we were trying. Makin was overall well behaved, but we may have to have our next photographer climb up a tree since he just wanted to look up at them. :)

Here are the only two that turned out somewhat respectable...but definitely not good enough for me!



And a few other random pics that turned out cute. Sorry Brad, maybe more of you next time! :)



And then Miss Cranky Pants fell asleep in the car on the way home...naturally. :)

Next picture mission is planned for this coming Saturday morning with the Check family (these were with the Bonfiglios...we have to stagger with such hectic schedules) so lets hope we can get a good one. If not we'll give it one last try with Aunt Heather. OR Perhaps it will just be a picture with a screaming toddler this year instead of a smiling one. :)
