Christmas Card photos: the bane of my existence

I've had my Christmas card made for a while now, but just thinking about taking pictures of the kids for the card has been too much for me.

I finally decided to get it over with. The results were not great. The boys were TOTALLY into it and were posing like champs, but Kensie was bitter because I was not taking her suggestions {she's a pro, you know}. Thus, a grumpy, tear-stained face. By the time Kensie finally got over it Jackson was done.

So, this is what I ended up with-
Cute pictures of the boys and cute pictures of Kensie and Lincoln. But no decent picture of the three kids together. I was so tempted to just use one of the grumpy ones and be done with it, but before church I snapped some more with THREE happy kids who looked even better in their Sunday clothes & I'm much happier with the result {which you'll see soon.....after I mail the cards}.


Here are some of the pics from the first attempt:
