Picture Day

Those people at Lifetouch have a real racket going on... we have about 2 or 3 different picture days throughout the school year. UGH!

You can purchase 'picture packages' that range from the $13 "Mommy doesn't love Me" group (1 5x7 and 2 2x3s, no wallets) to the ridiculous $77 "Narcissist-in-Training" package (36 pounds of prints and keychains and bookmarks and magnets).

I told my kids they can dress how they want for the photo shoot. Livi chose a lovely little dress with big black kinder-kickin' boots. She also requested 'church' hair.

Calvin opted for regular attire but said his accessory was going to be the infamous eye-cross. Hope they don't stick like that....


Perhaps I should pay the extra $6.50 for 'retouching'...

So that is where my kids got their goofiness from. It is in the walls of this house. great. Thanks. :) I was slightly disappointed when you didn't define Onomatopoeia. I was getting free education from you. Don't stop on me now!

that would be cool if they could move a crossed eye into the right place with retouch. however cal looks cute..cross-eyed and all. his personality shines through that picture! and livi i must say..she looks darling(boots and all.)

awww...Livi looks adorable!! the church hair looks great! and i think Calvin pulls off the eye-cross very well. no retouch's needed.
