Merry Christmas to All and to All a Good Night.

Many people the land over do a Holiday Christmas Card.

We do. You do. 

Who do?

I decided it was time to step it up and have an actual family photo taken.

This is a major undertaking;

Clothes

Haircuts

No facial injuries

Happy Faces

Everyone at the same place at the same time.

I have to say as the Mom I immediately noticed someone with no socks, and someone with sports socks, and of course I'm overly critical of myself.

BUT.

We have a picture of our family captured forever. 

I love it. 

If it was perfect it wouldn't be our family now would it? 

Scroll down and enjoy, especially those last few which REALLY capture who we are. 

Dad's Photobook

When Dad & Mom came to the Dirty Dash they took pics with their camera.
Dad kindly let me download the photos onto my computer.
I got bonus photos.
Pictures of events the two of them have attended and taken pics of.
It's fun to look through them.  Dad has a quiet presence and people rarely notice when he's taking their picture. There's some"posing", but mostly just pictures that make you feel as if you're standing right there.  And of course I had to add a complimentary Dad video. Classic.

 

Next words out of her mouth, "Dad are you on video?"

Dad's pic of the deck he's redoing

Ging got off those starting blocks well. 

A measure of mouths. Who will take the bigger bite.

Too cool for school.

A glimpse.
