December 3, 2006 - Family Picture, Yeah Right! ?!?

Here is just a small glimpse of what we ended up with when trying to get a picture for the Christmas card. Too bad I though of doing this post too late, I actually deleted at least as many pictures as I saved because one kid or another was not cooperating. First, I put two different size stools down and covered them up with a nice red blanket in case it shows through. Well, the kids started fighting over the stools, I had every intention of Nicholas and Gabrielle being in the back----well Allison wouldn't have anything to do with being the only one on the floor. Then I finally got Nicholas and Allison to sit by each other and Gabrielle wouldn't have anything to do with pictures at all. When it came time to get pictures of the kids by themselves, that's all Allison did was climb all over the stools and try to play with the Christmas ornaments. Oh well, we ended up with quite a few good ones and some good outakes to go along with it.
