nov 15- holiday pictures with celia

so- we had MORE family pictures (all members of the family complained of course) with a former moms group member, celia. it was a 20 minute session and actually my kids cooperated, halleluljah! all she did was tell them 'whatever you do, do NOT smile' and sure enough, they all smiled! who would have known it could be that easy! i think also the fact that there were no distractions helped (like at the park, they wanted to play, not take pictures!)

funny story though, i thought i recognized which house she lives in- i had been there only once before. she told me to just walk in the back door, no need to knock- bc she might have a session going on. well, the 6 of us walk up the driveway to the back door, i open it and see a lady feeding her kid- i say 'she told us to just walk in' and then from behind me- the garage door opens and a man says 'who is 'she'?' and i say 'celia' and he says 'i dont know who celia is'

oh CRAP!!!!!!!!! we were at the wrong house!!!!!!!!!! lmao we were next door at a neighbor who had just moved in and didnt even know who celia was and i opened their door! omg, embarassing!

so we all run down the driveway next door- mortified and whole family making fun of me! anyway- here are a few of the pics- most of you have seen some of them on our holiday card.











so after the photo shoot, i took a few of my own pictures - which they did NOT cooperate for- of course! i love the last one.. my boys are so handsome (i know i am biased, but still!)
