Christmas Photo Shoot

I got up early on Sunday, so that I could be ready in time to have a photo shoot with my kids. I love to take their pictures, but they aren't usually very cooperative. Candid shots, sure, but if I try to get them to pose and smile...forget it. Kyle's forced smile looks like he's in pain, Alec NEVER can keep his eye on the camera, and Talia has the attention span of a 2 year old. Of course, she is 2 ;)

I did manage to get a couple of good shots...

(Talia embodies the old fashioned concept of "Demure" in this pic...but we all know it's not the case!)

I used the tripod to try to get a good shot of the 4 of us (Cole was off helping his brother)..this one's ok, but it's the best I could get of all of us...

Talia loves eating the snow...now that it's old, crusty, and a little bit dirty, it's been a trial...because the word "no" to a 2 year old is like the end of the world!

We both love the coat, I can't thank you enough Michele!
