Happy Easter, everyone!
We were all set. Nothing could go wrong!
That is, nothing could go wrong until we saw the BIG BUNNY. Yikes. He was actually okay from afar. As we waited in line, the boys seemed just fine.
Just in case, we had decided that this would be a family picture (our first!) in an effort to make the big boys a bit more comfortable.
Jason actually was okay at first. Here he is sporting a sort of deer caught in headlights look. He wasn't thrilled, exactly, but he was giving this experience a shot. Shawn, however, was not okay. Notice his look of terror the moment he sat on the bunny's lap. I think he might be saying, "Get me off!" over and over again to Isaac in this first shot.
Now this one seemed to catch us all off guard. Jason had now decided that Shawn must be on to something, so he joined in on the crying fest. I may be telling him that it was okay when the photographer snapped this picture. Shawn was caught taking another glance at the scary bunny, and the hysterics started up again. Jack has started to fidget some, too, what with all the noise and all. I must say, though, that Isaac is looking pretty good!
For this last shot, Isaac and I have decided that crying will be the best we're going to get for the pictures, so we might as well smile and look good ourselves amid all the chaos. We're used to it; I think it may be the story of our lives now! :-)
I don't know why, but I love shots like this. They are real...and that makes them all the more special to me. Besides, if all of our pictures were perfect, what would I have to embarrass them with when they bring home their girlfriends? (Not that I would ever do such a thing...heh heh.)
We hope you have a wonderful day!
