Let's try for a NICE picture.

Of course every year at Christmas I like to have family photos under the christmas tree. This year, for some reason, that didn't happen. So I tried a different approach. Trying to get a picture of the kids under the tree, so at least I would have that. And here is what my efforts produced.....

A lovely picture of Lil'Miss. She cooperated somewhat.
The GOOD picture.

Here is what I had to compete with....

This candy cane thingy that her dad bought her. A prop if you may.

Some questionable pictures of Mr.Mister. These are the good ones.

Take note of the comb I used to distract him so at least he would stay in one spot. Then he gave up on the comb and moved on to things....more his 'style'....

I tend not to argue with a boy and his cool yellow camaro car that Santa brought him for Christmas.

And.....some struggling pictures of the two of them together.

The tree looks like it's going to topple in this picture.
I tried, really I did. If this was video, you'd probably hear Gramma laughing at me in the background. And she was much too busy doing my dishes to help me out.
Ok, how about some doggies instead.

They look really enthusiastic. Kona just refused to pose or sit or do anything....but lie there defeated (maybe because I tried to make her wear a santa hat???????).

Polly, well.....she looked at me like I was crazy. Perhaps it was that nice Christmas collar I insisted she wear.

I should have done a self portrait of myself. That idea slipped my mind....
