SCHOOL PHOTOS

It is that time of year AGAIN. School picture day!

I really love the school photos when they come back. It always appears that someone tried to control Sorenna's cowlicks, Thorin was crying or Cannon was scared. The group photos are always so much more fun. In fact, one of the only reasons I buy the pictures is for the included group shot. Fast forward to a time of LAZY people who are not willing to do the job that thousands of people before them have done. We are in an age of lazy people. People want to do the bare minimum to get the most benefits...look at what Obama is trying to HAND out. I know SCHOOL PHOTOS are not a crisis by any means, but it is just one more example of how we have become lazy.



















These days they do NOT do the classic group photo where you line of the kids on the tiered stands and PRAY that everyone looks at the front, doesn't put a finger in their nose (or their freind's nose for that matter) and you can see everyone's face.

They instead take the individual photos and stick them in a yearbook style page and call it the Class Photo.
What fun is THAT?




















So, for the past few years that my kids have been in various school, I have been the one who takes the REAL class photos. I never have the tiered stand, there is never a COOL place to take it and many kids are usually absent.

This year was a SUCCESS!!
The backdrop was really cool, the kids were MOSTLY all there and they were dressed up for picture day so they looked NICE!




















There is always the kid who isn't looking, does some strange face or part of their head is blocked because they moved, but 20 wiggly kids and a camera....these were GREAT!
I am SUPER happy that my kids are having a great year so far despite all the budget cuts are stress.
