out-takes~

whenever we are all together we always try to get family pictures. if not family pictures at least pictures of each couple etc. sometimes the out takes are better than the actual photo. so i thought i would show some of the mess ups before showing the ones that we will enjoy.

-first my mom and george-

-to much flash, not enough smiles--caught in a cuddle--do what--perfect-

next my little sister, her boyfriend, and my parents.

-kind of hard to see those bunny ears huh?-
-thats better-

then it was our turn. please keep in mind i get very puffy in my face towards the end of my pregnancy's. i did not realize it was so bad until i saw these. oh well. memories of being pregnant.

-garran always has to start things off being silly-
-not paying any attention to the photographer-
-one of garrans many smiles-
-parenting while posing, never a dull moment-
-cheesy-
-as good as its going to get!!-

then the group shot using my new tripod. i was having some issues with my self timer. you can tell it took a few tries by the looks on every ones faces. i know there are a lot but they are so funny. it cracks me up every time i look at them. so you guys will just have to be patient with all of these!

-this was the first of many. trying to make sure it was centered, leveled and everyone was in the shot-
-the boys got loose. sara missing to chase them down-
-starting to loose some of them. can you see it in their faces. especially garran and jeremy-
-kids back, george missing. trying to help me with the auto timer-
-i knew by this point i only had a few more tries-
-begging for patience and trying not to get frustrated myself-

hold on whats that....

-PERFECTION!!!!!-

or at least good enough for us!!
