Foto Finish Friday

Last weekend our friend came over to take some family pictures for us. K was fairly uncooperative, and not really in the picture taking mood, or rather, he wanted to be taking the pictures instead of being the subject of the pictures. Here are a few of my favs, some "posed", some "out takes". Our biggest obstacle was the tripod, which K really wanted to play with. We finally gave in and let it be in our pictures, and we were able to get a few decent family shots. Enjoy!

Our future photographer

He loves looking at the ornaments

It wasn't all smiles...

There's a decent shot...
