The Perfect Family Photo

Have you ever decided you needed a 'Perfect Family photo' for that wonderful Christmas card to send out in the beginning of December? I decide every year that I would like to send out a family photo with our Christmas cards. This year is no different than the last, but this year in the middle of our photo shoot I started to wonder... is there such a thing as a 'perfect family photo' to send out in your Christmas cards? After much trial and error and frustration with the timer and tripod I've realized that there is not going to be a 'perfect family photo' I do have a couple that will make you laugh and a few that I love, but to strive for perfection in something as trivial as a family photo will lead you to insanity. I bid you good luck in your venture for a 'Perfect family photo' I don't' know that we got ours this year but I guarantee the one that shows up in your mail box will make you giggle and say "yep that's a perfect Ronnebeck family photo".

Additionally - Gracie decided to be nice today, I know it's not front page news for any normal person but for us it's leaps and bounds. Ever since I moved in with Eric she's decided she does not want to be a Nice kitty anymore. Her food dish was empty when I got home and she was all about meowing and purring to get my attention, I picked her up and started petting her (which is a first) and I made Eric get the camera to document this auspicious occasion. Then we gave her food! Either way - it totally made my day to come home to a kitty that was happy to see me.

I can't wait to see your photo this year. You are going to love tony and mine. It's going to be pretty awesome. We haven't shot it yet because we are still looking for all the props and haven't put our tree up yet. We were out of town all weekend and are taking today to settle down and relax. Can't wait to see your pic and can't wait for you to see ours.
