Christmas Card 2013 Photo Shoot

I received my first Christmas cards last week, thanks Grandad and Una, and got to thinking that I better get my ass into gear and take our photos for our Christmas cards. Yeah, yeah I know it’s pushing it a bit late, but, “To achieve great things, two things are needed: a plan and not quite enough time” as said by Leonard Bernstein. My boys were not too into the idea of wearing the Christmas hats in public, so I promised it would be quick. We went to the zoo to take the photos.

So the plan was that I would just snap a couple of photos, and it would be over before they knew it. Then we could have a look around the zoo. Now to all sit nicely together, face the same way, and smile. How difficult can that be?

So dear friends and family I hope you like your Christmas cards with at least one boys not looking at the camera.
