Professional Portraits

Ben and I signed up to have our professional pictures taken for our church directory this year (we tried to avoid it last time and were caught at the 4th of July party and had to be 'inserted' into the directory with a not so great picture....so this time around I just went the easy route).

Well, it started off by me missing our appointment. Should have been a sign.

It was at 6:30 and we left the house at 6:50 for bible study.

Crap!

When I got there they said they'd get us when they had an open spot.

Fast forward to 9pm.

I'm glad they fit us in afterall, but with my lack of planning, we weren't dressed for pictures AT ALL.

The lady was asking Ben to put his right hand here and his left hand there, do the hokey pokey and.... not really.... but it was so awkward that all Ben could think about was how he did NOT want to end up HERE.

The result?

A whole lot of this....


They even tried to get us to buy them!

For a measly $32 PER PHOTO!!!!!!! WHA?!

I told them, "Sorry, I just got out of Dave Ramsey's class and he would NOT approve."

Someone PLEASE tell me next time it is time to cut my hair! Yikes!

  4. I might have purchased that photo. It's so cute. I think Dave would approve of a family memory. :)

    Also - your hair looks super cute. :)
