Take 2: Family Pictures cont. from Nov. 11 post

Ok, I know everyone in America sits in front of their Christmas tree and takes pictures! I get too many Christmas cards each year to prove it, so the question is How do they do it? I thought after the last group photo disaster, I could get ONE good one! OK, this it cute, but it's only one of my children including the dog.
Now Cason joins Kelissa, but adds another family pet and we are still missing three children. In this picture the cat is already getting irritated and the dog is wondering what is going on.

Ok, now everyone is gathered around, but Chi won't get any closer until the cat in gone! The dog is worried about the growling cat, Chloe and Chi are off in la la land and Kelissa looks good.


Now the cat is gone, the dog is happy about that. Cason still feels like he has to hang on to something after the cat left so he is grabbing Chi who is laughing, causing Chloe to look the wrong way. Kade and Kelissa, good job!



Now the dog left thank goodness! Chloe forgot to smile and Chi won't sit down. At least the three big ones look ok.




Now, Kade's head is too far back, Chloe is bored and looking the wrong way. Chi got away from Cason who is rather annoyed by this whole thing, and Chi is looking the wrong way! Good job Kelissa.





Ok, I'm keeping this one! It's not great. Ignore the chili on Chloe's face. Everyone is sprawled out and Cason has on workout clothes while Chloe and Chi are wearing sweat pants and boots, but hey you can't have everything.






Oops, Kelissa lost it, finally she is looking away, but who can blame her, Chloe wants to take her clothes off, and Chi has moved around for the third time.







Now, Kade is out to lunch, Chloe is mad that she can't undress, Chi is not even in the same zip code with the rest of them, but Kelissa and Cason are still hanging in there.








Ok, it's all over, Chi left, Cason is annoyed once again, and Kade, Kelissa, and Chloe are just ecstatic that this photo shoot in now over! Any tips on family photography would be greatly appreciated!

Bless your heart. I have no advice. Except I'd definately leave the cat out. I think the cat makes everyone wary.
