The Obligatory Family Christmas Photo

Every year, I'm in charge of the family photo at Christmas.

I don't have a fancy camera, and I don't have great photography skills. Basically, I'm in charge of the family Christmas photo because I'm the only one who knows how to use the self timer on my camera. With three active little boys in the family, getting the photo is one of the most challenging parts of the holidays.

After several attempts, we manage to get a photo where everyone is looking at the camera.


But before we get that photo, we get several that show what our family holidays really look like.



I hope your Christmas was as wonderful as mine!

  2. Jaime - I love the look on my husband's face. What makes it even funnier is that he's holding my sister's three legged dog. I love my family.

  8. I love these, especially the candid ones. :) Every time I whip out the camera my daughter wants to "see" the pictures rather than sit and have one taken.
