A Christmas Photo Shoot

Chipper,waiting patiently for Maxine to cooperate...

But we all know  that's not going to happen..

So this Mommy chases the kids around for some individual shots.

 And here she is looking so angelic,

it almost looks like she cooperated?

Thank you photo editing software!

"Ok,just a few more before you two completely mess up your hair.."

Ohkay...

that went well..

Chipper,was that a smile?!

Now,let's try another shot together. 

 Well,that's progress but...

I think we can do better.

You'd think that getting them to sit AND stay,

at the same time,

 while you bribe them with a handful of treats

 would be easy?!

So,after many attempts later,

I finally found my favorite.

A twisted back,

2 sore knees,

an hour of photo editing

 and $30 later,

 I have the CUTEST Christmas cards ever!
