I’m so very happy to have my Livi back with us for Christmas.
With her living away, I didn’t think I would be able to get a family (kids) picture this year. Now that everyone was in the area, I would be able to get one done.
Silly me,,, what was I thinking? It’s no easy feat trying to arrange the scheduling of 5 people, especially on the weekends when they all work, to get them together during daylight house for an outdoor family picture.
I thought we had found a day that would work; we had an hour of open time in between Rachel getting off work and David going to work.. It wan’t to be. One “person” (not to be named) fell asleep, and by the time she was ready, David had left for work.
It’s not often that I get more than 2 of them together (and in the mood to let me take a picture) so while it wouldn’t be the “official” Christmas Picture, I took advantage of the 5 minutes that they gave me and snapped a few images.
I took a few of Livi and Abbie while the others were getting ready, and then (after David had left for work) I TRIED (I say TRY in the strongest sense of the word.) to get the girls to behave long enough for me to get a picture of them together.
