Christmas 1.5 – Favorite Things

When I was a kid, Christmas night we’d put on our new jammies and collect a few of our favorite gifts and gather for a picture of all the kids together.   It was always kind of fun, so I’ve tried doing that with my kidlets.

There is a problem though.

My children are notoriously rotten at posing for pictures.

“Hold still and say cheese” translates to this …

At least they are all looking the general direction in that one.

How about “Everybody stand up and look at the Christmas tree!”…

They did finally get that one pretty well posed …

So what if we don’t EVER get the perfect picture?  I’ve come to love this type even more …

… because that is a perfect picture of four of MY favorite things!
