My family always moans and groans a bit when I say we have to take a group photo, but I know one day we'll look back and be glad we did. This year we decided to take advantage of a corn pudding that refused to finish baking and took our picture while we waited. (My usual habit is to wait until we're ready to eat and then drive everyone nuts while I snap a shot.) Every time we set up a family photo, I always laugh at the test shots and think that I should totally do a "build a family photo" post, but never do.
Well, this is your lucky day. ;)
Oh, yes, Addison's getting a spit bath.

Gathering the troops.

Oh, we definitely need to close that garage door.

Getting "the look" from Micah.

The kids are smiling much too early. You know those smiles won't be around for the real picture.

Now my husband is getting in on "the look."

Next up? "The look" from Michael.

Now my brother is joining in on "the look."

Notice how everyone except Becky has decided to give me "the look." Seriously, people. It's one picture!

Ta-dah! Let's just ignore the fact that I almost cut my dad out of the picture and that the front row of kids are not even in focus. Christmas is documented.

Bahahaha! Thanks for the documentation of "The Photo"! I laughed out loud and tried to explain to my husband how funny it was. He didn't get it! Happy New Year to you and your family!
Love it! I should do this with all the pictures we have to get before we can even open presents at my dads.
This is hysterical... and so true! I love that you posted it for the world to see too. :-)
Thanks for the laugh! You have such a wonderful family! And Addison is so stinking cute, she needs to be on a magazine cover!
Ha!! I love "the looks." I get those same ones when it's time for picture taking at our house!
Ha! That is a keeper for sure! I am sorting through Christmas photos of years past and giggling away at all of the "almosts" that made the cut and became "good enough..." Happy New Year to you!
HA! Loved this idea!
