3 Ring Circus

That's all I could think of to describe Saturday afternoon. We decided on Friday that we would have family pictures done on Saturday. Tom was taking the girls to see High School Musical 3 also so I had to plan around that so Saturday morning I checked the movie times and found that the movie was playing at 1:30. We figured it was the perfect time for them because it was matinee prices plus it left plenty of time for them to get home, change, and head over to the studio for pictures. I then called the studio to set up a time for pictures and the latest they had was 4:30 so I reserved that time. Well a little while before they get home from the movie I begin getting out the dresses I wanted them to wear and realize that Myranda's dress is missing! After looking everywhere I picked out another dress for her and looked for Andrea's dress. Big suprise, hers was missing also... I couldn't find hers so I picked out another dress for her as well. Luckily I did find Samara's dress. When they got home they got ready (We couldn't find Tom's belt so he went without.) and we headed to the studio. I didn't have a dress that fit Jaina so I bought one quick before we had pictures done. Now for the actual session, it was definitely interesting. Let's just say that trying to get a family of 7 to smile and look at the camera at the same time is like trying to squeeze water out of a rock! Funny thing is the most cooperative child was our one year old son LOL. Of course we didn't expect Jaina to cooperate because she's only 4 weeks old but our oldest 3 were arguing and refusing to smile and giving attitude. I couldn't believe it! Eventually we got decent photos done. Now we're just playing the waiting game until the pictures come in on the 21st...



On another note: I got a new haircut Friday! I have been thinking about getting a swing bob for a while and finally took the plunge. I love it! It is much easier to manage than the layered bob and looks cute too.
