Pictures were nearly the death of me!!!

As you can see, we finally did get pictures of everybody this time around, but not without more drama of course!! I got the kids all dressed up exactly how they were the week before and set out for Layton Park. I decided to start with a picture of all the kids together and then move on to individuals, but unfortunately the kids were not being very cooperative and that was taking forever. As soon as I decided that I had a good group picture and was ready to move on my camera battery died. I was so mad!!! We have an extra battery, but it has been missing for quite some time. Lucky for me we had the battery charger in the car, so I charged the battery while the kids played at the park. I had called Les to vent my frustration and he felt bad and left work early to help me finish the pictures. We were finally able to get the rest of the pictures and I'm pretty happy with how they turned out.

My next project was making a new blog header. I knew what I wanted, but wasn't exactly sure how to get it. I finally got something close, but I'm still not super happy with it. I don't know why I took it upon myself to do the blog header considering my husband designs web pages for a living and could have probably done it in half the time and had it looking fabulous. Actually, I do know why, it's because I'm very inpatient and didn't want to wait around for him to do it. He has promised to clean it up for me and make it look more how I had envisioned it, but until then I'm just going to leave my version for everyone to see. I'm so glad pictures are done!!!

Stacy,
Those pictures look great!!!!

Also, I was going to say, I know why you did it yourself...because if your husband is anything like mine, it will be February before he gets around to actually doing it for you. But, you beat me to it. :) I'm impatient too so I totally understand. It looks great though!

The pictures look GREAT!!! And the header looks really good too. I have to say I'm like you, I'm impatient when it comes to waiting for my husband to do something cause I know it will be MONTHS or a year before he finally gets around to it!
