Shameless Sales Pitch


Look at this interesting family just back from Easter service. The service was nice and the sun was shining, so they said, "Time for a family picture." Twenty shots later, they had four pictures where all 12 eyes were open.







WHAT is wrong with the mother's hand? Maybe she's flashing a gang symbol.



Of course, there were others where the faces looked fine, but the mother's posterior was enormous. You won't see those shots here.


Marlene likes this one, but the mother's leg appears to be at an odd angle. And it is all about the mother here.





Closed eyes. Big butts. Odd appendages. But you know what the family did right? They ordered their quilted pictures from Jill. She's nice. She even came to their 14 year old's birthday dinner. Sweet, huh?





So, wanna order your own quilted picture?

The photos are good! We are all so critical of ourselves (Moms) aren't we? Lovely family :)

Have to get in the attic before I can order mine!

Loved your pictures. Remember the very worst pictures that you took now will be the most treasured in thirty years.

I'm sorry. I laughed out loud at the one with "Mother's leg at an odd angle." It looked like a spare leg to me. Sorry. I have to run and pee.

Easter is the perfect day for a family picture. You all look so nice....even YOU, dear Caution! We women are so hard on ourselves; I know all about it, I hate pictures of myself; believe me, you are much more photogenic than I am. Beautiful green sweater you are wearing.

I'm still mulling over the wall-hanging design....I'm slow.

Meant to say, too.....enjoy your family when they are young like this. That they grow up is all good, of course, but very different from the previous stages of life. You'll be very glad you have a career...and a blog.

Us women and our photos. You'd swear we are ogres, trolls and reject monsters from Sesame Street.

When in reality, we are none of those things.

You look lovely and those pics are fantastic!

I like the one on the stairs too--I would just crop out everyones legs and lower bodies to make a nice picture! But then, I have a Mac and can easily do things like that LOL

That leg has me laughing now...Maybe you can crop it out?

I still love that photo.

Sometimes perspective bites. It's a funny little thing in life, photographically speaking. Hope you had a good trip and at least got a sip of the slushie ;)
