I have this family tradition that I LOVE to do. It's taking family pictures every year and sending them out for the holidays. I enjoy seeing how we all change year after year and love seeing my kids slowly growing. This year I wanted something simple, easy and CHEAP. I prefer to take outside pictures because its so much easier with boys. We can take breaks inbetween and the boys can run around without running into anything or getting in anybodys way.
So I had the idea of just paying someone to come over and use our family camera to take a few snap shots of us and call it a day. After scrolling down my phone and looking for possible "volunteers" to take this challenge up, I nominated our nanny "Miss Roni". She is the best nanny ever!
{she is only our part time nanny, when Robert and I have date nights}
However, she is great with kids, my boys LOVE HER, she is crafty, funny and has many talents.
I was so HAPPY that she was able to come over to our house, make the boys pose for the pictures, only took 30 minutes and did a PHENOMENAL job.
Did I mention that our camera was not used after all.
These were taken by iPhone cameras.
~CRAZY how our phones can do "almost" everything now~
The same weekend we took our photos, I ordered our Holiday Cards from Shutterfly. I was so glad to be able to check it off my "TO DO" list.
I know these next few weeks will be crazy. It always seems chaotic towards the end of the year.
