Crafting The Perfect Family Photo
We've been delinquent about posting news about us lately, but I thought I'd help everyone out with a holiday tutorial to create the perfect holiday family photo. All you need is a copy of Photoshop.
First you're going to need some really good pictures of Santa and preferably with your kids.
(See below for examples)
OK, some of them can be less than stellar, just make sure each person looks good in at least ONE of the pictures.
Then you're going to add a little Holiday Magic.
Add a dash of Hope and Joy.
Remove any doubt that Mom & Dad aren't watching from behind the camera.
Finally make their spirits "bright"
And then you have the perfect holiday family photo.
We hope your Holidays are filled with Joy and Happiness and none of that fear and crying because Santa looks scary and stuff.

Sam's First Day Of School
Today is Sam's first day of school (4K). This morning he was, at least on the outside, pretty calm about it all. Knowing that we live only two blocks from the school, we waited to leave until about 10 minutes before the doors opened. We tried to drive there, but we litterally got out the back alley and a half of a block down before the street was loaded with parents cars dropping their kids off. To put it in perspective, I didn't make it off of our city block before I had to park.
Sam was ultra excited as we walked the last block together, talking about the things he was going to do and all his new friends he would make, and going over his schedule of activities for the day. When we made it to the school, we quickly found his room and stashed his backpack in his locker, took a few pictures and then he trucked right in to his room and sat among the other kids(I didn't even get a hug). He simply waved me goodbye and I had nothing else to do, so I snapped a couple more pictures and left to find my car, practically back at home.
