A Tale of Saturday

Ha, ha! Curtis and I decided to do the impossible and staged a kids Christmas photo session in our dining room. Listen, we're idea people. We come up with awesome ideas, but we generally fail when it comes to putting the idea into action.

As is our game, we had great photo ideas. We put up a big white sheet in the dining room, pulled the wooden chest in as a prop and dressed the children lovingly. I even curled all the girls hair and put a little glitz on their faces. Curtis began the shooting as I played stylist and lint remover. It all seemed to be going fairly well.

Then the spirit of the Akerman's arose and it was failing. Just failing into belly laughs and fighting for the camera. Needless to say, we have an appointment Wednesday at Sears to allow specialists to have a crack at our kin. We were able to pull one hilarious photo that shows perfectly what we deal with on the daily. So if you want to own your very own original Akerman Christmas Card Version 20.10, shoot me your addy and I'll snail one to you. I'll even sign it! Makes it worth significantly less!

Oh and for those of you who just want to see the picture and not have it mailed to you, you have to wait! Once I get all the photos out and feel they've reached their new homes, I'll post the masterpiece on this blog!

Love,
Stephanie
