Ready early?

 You know how on Sundays after everyone is all dressed up, fed, & done all their morning chores but you still have a little time to kill before heading out the door to Mass you're just looking for something to do?  Me neither. 

Except for Palm Sunday, however, when miraculously this happened at our house!  So, what did we do?  We went outside to try & get some nice pictures together where everyone is smiling all at once, no one's squinting their watering allergy eyes, & everyone is sitting ladylike.  How do you think we did?

Well at least this is a good one of Rebecca!

Just in time...

for formal pictures at my brother's Ordination & Darren's little sister's wedding...
Rebecca fell off the teeter totter bruising the entire left side of her face, poor thing,
& Andrew decided to give himself an oh-so-lovely do-it-yourself haircut.

How do they always know? It seems almost inevitable that someone will have a major cut, bruise, or something when we're bound to remember it forever in photos. I guess Andrew will get that big boy haircut sooner than I anticipated...& maybe Rebecca will get to wear "real" makeup to the wedding. Oh, joy.

Is that just our family or has that happened to yours?
