This year I am preparing to print my first album for my kids.? Can you believe I haven’t done that yet?? I want a 40 page 12×12 and I have it all prepared except for the Christmas pages.? Due to a busy season, rain days, and my surgery, it took me until January before I finally got the kids Christmas pictures done.? Trying to get a trio of “posed” all eyes on the camera shots is tough and I really wanted more interactive shots so (for the most part), I gave the kids just a little direction and then captured THEM.? I am so happy with the real life moments I was able to capture and preserve.?? I processed so many (because mom’s can’t help themselves) so I am going to break them up in SIX installments.? I think this top picture might be the cover of my book.? I love it.? Without further ado….

Is this a typical Ty expression or what?

Another favorite…(I am starting these installments with more “posed”)

Ty and Tori – always the wild cards.

That hand on the hips thing is all Tori.? No one needs to tell her to do that.? 🙂
