How to Take/Fake a Family Picture



My family is never very excited about getting together for family pictures. With that in mind, I didn't even ask them to wear coordinating clothes. It's come as you are in the Songer family these days. Anderson had his mood on and did his best to ruin it. We just ignored him and he decided to participate partway through. Here's the phinished (photoshop+finished) product.

And here's how we got there. I recommend playing the slideshow fast, picking a kid, and watching them squirm! Also, check for Anderson peeking out of the last few. His eyeballs show over Casey and my shoulders on the last one.

Oh,the memories! Love your hair in braids, Edith. Orchids to Anie and Lissa for hanging in there. Glad you came back, Anderson. You left a big hole, Casey. Meredith, you sprite, you were all over the place. Now Rosalie has an excuse.

Cute picture! I loved watching the slide show. One of our friends chose a picture for their Christmas card that had everyone not 'perfect'. It was pretty funny. Their little boy was even picking his nose. It's my kids' favorite card on the mantel!
