Tonight Mr.PTM got home from work and asked that question that puzzles me every Friday night "What are we doing tomorrow?". Tonight I had the answer ready and waiting--- PALM TREE FAMILY CHRISTMAS CARD PHOTO SHOOT!!!! Whoo hoo!
We havent yet picked the location and the only guarantee is that we will get lots of 'outtakes' and 'blooper' photos. And now I will share with you some of the outtakes from last years photo shoot:
I mean is his face priceless or what?!
Two toddlers on the beach for the first time was NOT
the best choice for a Christmas card photo shoot. FAIL!
So we moved to the pool in our neighborhood to try that instead. They had been to a pool before, it wasnt scary. They even kind of liked it, kind of.
Okay, so BB was less than thrilled with our "Kids in the Jungle" location.
Okay CC hated it too! Jungle background-FAIL!
Off the the pool we went, hoping for better luck!
This was in October, in Tampa, Florida. So while it wasnt freezing, it also wasnt super warm. That apparently doesnt stop die-hards in our neighborhood from frequenting the neighborhood pool. Who cares, right? It makes for some HILARIOUS pictures. Like this one:
Dude has bigger boobs that I do. Thank goodness
Campbell is facing the camera or she might have tried to breastfeed.
So this is the best picture we got from the pool location--- Christmas card worthy?
No we didnt think so either.
How hilarious is CC's expression?
As you can tell by the kids expressions they were done and so over the photo shoot. Not awesome at all. Just as I was thinking I was going to have to pull out the Santa hat and throw it on the dog I was able to snap this picture of the kids in their Thanksgiving outfits:
And BOOM--Christmas card photo!
Lets hope tomorrow goes much MUCH more smoothly! Does anyone have any funny stories about taking the family Christmas card photo? Please leave a comment and share. I love them!
